We’ve never been to a show on July 9. As far as we are aware. Maybe Chris went to some emocrapcore local gig at The UU or something.

This Day In KLYAM (July 4)
This day will always be a part of KLYAM mythology – the fourth of July 2015. Chris was not present (as he explains in the video below). Johnnie and the Foodmasters first show. We rock, we rolled. It was wild debauchery, very sloppy. The cops were called on us; the show had to be moved inside. But mainly? Fun. A lot of fun. And we’re still out there getting at it.

This Day In KLYAM (July 3)
Our first time seeing Jay Reatard live! 10 years ago today. We were disappointed because he only played for 30 minutes. And he called all of us in the audience “boring fucks”. The horror!
On a side note – there’s a YouTube poster Reatard Live who has recently compiled a bevy of Reatard-adjacent (solo, Reatards, Lost Sounds, Bad Times, etc) live videos. Thank you to Reatard Live for all of these viddies, which as you can imagine, we at KLYAM can not get enough of. Jay’s influence on KLYAM may, without exaggeration, be one of the most prevailing.
