Pop punk/skate punk band After the Fight is back after a period of relative quiet. They’ll be releasing a new song (“Age of Distraction”) on 5/24/24, the same day as their first show in four years, at Montrose Saloon (also appearing: Medicine Hat, the Fomites and 13 Monsters).

Josh, Steve and Tim of After the Fight join me for delicious hot dogs from Byron’s Hot Dogs (1701 W. Lawrence) and catch me up on the band, starting with its formation 20 (!) years ago.

Thanks so much to Byron’s for the great eats and hospitality!
