A gut punch to see Parkside and Bottom of the Hill will be gone by end of year.
As San Jose kids looking for fun, first thing we did in 2007 is load up a car and chip in for the $4.50 gallon gas to see punk shows at Parkside and BOTH. So many sick bands came through - felt like freedom.
Will always remember the Flatliners bassist chatting the crowd “y’all got a real good hockey team” back in 2009 when the Sharks were leading the league and being like damn, we’re on the map for this Toronto band.
Several Wilhelm Scream shows and definitely Fat Fest 25 at Parkside were incredible.
