KARP Lives! Fundraiser and Show

Twenty years ago, three misfits in the Washington town of Tumwater formed what would eventually become the influential and heavy as hell band KARP (Kill All Redneck Pricks). Combining adolescent frustration with a love for punk and metal, the band went on to release three albums on the K Records label but broke up in 1998.

Documentary filmmaker Bill Badgley turned his lens on the band for a forthcoming documentary he has entitled KARP Lives!, but to finish and release the film he needs to raise some cash. To that end, Red 7 is hosting a fundraiser. Badgley will be in attendance to speak and answer questions, and he'll also be previewing the film.

Performing at the benefit will be the Fleshlights, Red X Red M, and DFI. The latter is the solo project of former J Church guitarist, David DiDonato.
