COMING SOON! in celebration of 25 years of playing gigs we have made a calendar featuring more than 140 gig flyers from the last 25 years. Relive those crazy Poison Club days, remember when there was decent shows at Chats Palace? Were you at the 2000 Punks Picnic? Did you hang out in the toilets at CBGBs 20 years ago? we can hardly remember any of it but we’ve got the flyers with our name on so we were probably there too! The calendar has QR codes on each month which link to exclusive extra content – photos, stories and gossip from the last 25 years of Rabies Babies. Only 100 copies printed, and they will be available at our next 3 gigs and a very limited amount on our bandcamp soon.
This is information about the fundraiser, posted by Active Slaughter, the band who set up the fundraiser.
“We’re doing a download only compilation to raise money to help some friends of ours that we’ve known for 20 odd years escape the genocide being inflicted upon Gaza by the scum that is the IOF.
The family has been split in two, with the mother and daughter being in Egypt where the daughter, Salma (who does the spoken intro to our song “It’s Not Antisemitic To Hate Fascists”) is undergoing multiple surgeries on a leg that was badly broken when they were bombed, and the father and sons still trapped near Rafah with no water, electricity and very little food. It’s no exaggeration to say their lives are under threat every second of every day and the youngest son has been severely traumatised after having been trapped under the rubble when the building they were in was bombed. We would like to help them all escape their personal hell.
Crossing from Gaza into Egypt normally costs between three hundred to a thousand Dollars. Since the unfolding genocide this price has increased to 5,000 Dollars, something which our friends simply don’t have and are unlikely to ever have given what Gaza has been subjected to.
Every single penny will go to helping our friends out and when they’re out it will go to the next family, and the next…
Huge thanks and much love, Active Slaughter”
