For just over two years, Whamo Media’s been a boon for the Bay area DIY scene, booking shows not just at homes, but at small clubs, too, all in an effort to put local talent in front of audiences who want to listen.

Whamo leaders are headed out west for a while so they’re hosting what they’re calling the “last Whamo show for a while.” High-energy indie-rock band Mak (stylized in all caps) tops the throwdown at “some dude’s backyard,” and will be joined by fellow rock bands Soft Bite and You First, plus DJ Goth Prep Boy.

DM organizers for the address, and bring $10 to drop in the hat.
