Nostalgia for old-school punk-rock appears to be at an all-time high (read: When We Were Young Festival), and there’s a Bay area staple of the ‘90s scene still at it.

Slap Of Reality (which ended up on a major label deal via Minneapolis based Skene! Records, which released stuff from Green Day and Jawbreaker) has a new album, Goodbye, Me, out now and headlines a show alongside a trio of locals.

Tickets to see Slap Of Reality, Human Error and more play The Nest at St. Pete Brewing Company on Friday, Nov. 17 are still available and cost $8.
