Two of my middle school boys are in a punk/HC band called "Night Walker" and they have a show in Hongdae at DGBD on Sat, May 28th. Their Naver site is this:

They are looking for more bands to play with them. I believe the cost for renting the venue is 800,000 won, so my students want more bands so that the cost cheaper (maybe 200,000-100,000 won a band). They have to put down 400,000 for the deposit. I think that means if your band plays, you will have to give some amount to the venue. I am not familiar with playing shows in Seoul, so I was not aware of this fee, which I am sure, makes the gig a bit of a bummer. If you are experienced in playing shows, I suppose the fee will not come as a surprise. Or if you are not experienced, but want to play, this could be a good opportunity.

I have a note from my student explaining the gig info in Korean. However, I took out some of the student's private information, but he is a 3rd grade whose Korean stage name is Bae Jin Kyung and his English name is Vitriol. I support this kind of "against the norm" creative and artistic behavior from my students, so I want to help them out!

The student who wrote this can express himself in English quite well, but he didn't feel confident asking for help in this manner in English, especially to native speakers! (I'm working on this with him ) On a side note, when he speaks to me in school, I have no problem understanding him.

If you are interested in perhaps playing, please message me!!!

안녕하세요.

중학교 3학년 재학중인 인디뮤지션 배진경 이라고 합니다(하지만 홍대에서는 다른 이름을 쓰고 있습니다). 영어 이름은 Vitriol 입니다.

(우리 밴드의 사정으로 5월 28일로 공연 날짜가 변경 되었음을 미리 알려 드립니다)
제가 당신의 밴드와 공연을 할려고 하는데요. 장소는 홍대 DGBD 에서 할 예정입니다. 총 4팀정도 공연을 할 예정인데요, 아직 당신의 밴드와 저의 밴드, 총 2개의 밴드 밖에 없습니다. 혹시 당신이 아시는 밴드가 있으시다면 그 밴드들과 같이 공연을 했으면 좋겠습니다.

우선 저희가 공연할 장소는 위에서 말했듯이, 홍대인근 클럽 DGBD 이며, 대관료는 800,000원(한팀당 200,000원)입니다(토요일에 대관을 해서 비쌉니다).공연장을 빌리기 위해 대관 예악비라는것을 내야 하는데요, 대관료의 50%를 우선 내야 합니다(한팀당 100,000원 내시면 됩니다).

그리고 제 밴드가 마지막에 공연을 할 예정인데요, 아직 공연장에 연락을 취하지 않은 상태라서 잘은 모르겠습니다만, 같이 공연을 했으면 좋겠습니다.

I'm in a punk band called" Dole que". We don't play our instraments we literally attack the audience. We grew up in a swat in London in the early seventies. Our early memories include sniffin glue being beat up by coppers and Teddy boys. In 1979 some of the guys in our band went National Front so we broke up. We later met some Jamacan guys and created a Ska two tone band.

In the early eighties Thatcher came into power. We got into the whole ban the bomb thing and became vegetarians. We were attacked numerously by police attending rallies for CND. We later realized that the only way to get laid was getting into" Frankie Goes To Holleywood"
