The new AZPunk 2.0 is an ongoing in-the-works project. That means there might be
some bugs here and there. If you're looking for the best in AZPunk experience, ditch the

Congrats to contest winner Renee Unfricht! Enjoy the 3D DVD and enjoy the show!

The recent scouring of the innerwebs and additions to our shows calendar have pointed towards some seriously awesome local shows coming up. And by seriously awesome, I'm talking about opening your fucking calendar and marking this shit down in red right now. Hardcore pioneers, sideshow freaks, local favorites, and controversial house shows that will destroy lives and create more scrutiny than your mom's sex video we've been glued to all week.
To start things off, we're tossing out another contest for the lucky few who actually decide to read this article. AZpunk and the Cut Throat Freak Show are teaming up to give one lucky ass a copy of the new Cut Throat Freak Show 3D DVD with super-fashionable 3D glasses included, and one free ticket to the Cut Throat Freak Show 3D DVD Release Show at Chasers on Friday, February 26th. We'll be drawing one winner on Thursday, February 25th, and the one chosen will have to actually get off their ass and go to the show to get the prizes, so if you're entering, clean your calendar for the 26th. (This show is a 21+ event, so that means this contest is only available to the adult table. Sorry kiddies.)
CutThroat tells AZPunk, "For me to get to see the show I want to see, I have to throw it myself. So this show will have a 3D film screening, pinatas, teen girls wrestling in a swimming pool of slime and octopi, the silliest dj I could find, and a shenanigans coordinator by the name of Fiasco. We've got some fun fucking bands too, BroLoaf, Melted Cassettes, Canyon Animals, DIM and of course a performance by the Cut Throat Freak Show. Oh, and wait till you see what she does with a carrot!" Here's a preview of what you can expect to see from this mangy group of freaks.
Now onto the upcoming shows you need to be aware of, starting with these freaks...
Bonus! Some videos I keep forgetting to post. Enjoy!
