Hey im moving from Cincinnati, ohio, and I was just wondering if there is a punk scene at all there in wilmington. Any local places where punk bands play or anything.
The Soapbox gets most of the bigger national touring bands. Everyone I know from down there mostly did house shows but last I heard the town really clamped down on 'em.
Not all people in NC are closed minded about music.
Since when is preference being closed minded? I bet most Blacks in Harlem don't like Polish Polka music. Are they closed minded? I love to listen to Jascha Heifetz and Itzhak Perlman. If you don't are you closed minded?
Music originates locally. Preferences of one locale doesn't always transfer over to another.

Let's see...
No we do not allow punk stuff in NC. Bible belt rules
I heard the town really clamped down on 'em.
I don't think NC is too big on punk music unfortunately.
It sounds like there are a whole lot of people in NC that are closed minded. I never said it was any one particular person....
not a huge scene but there are some shows the soapbox which was previously mentioned has a few shows a week with all different kinds of music and the rest are mostly house shows. check out diy wilmington on facebook he books a lot of the shows. theres some canadian metal bands playing a house show tomorrow if your in town. free show and beer.

That reminds me Jascha Heifetz's grandson Danny was the drummer for Mr. Bungle, who were a really, really weird band that was somewhat popular for an underground act back in the 90s. One of those groups like the Velvet Underground who didn't sell a lot of records but everyone who bought one went on to form a band. Top-notch bunch of musicians too.
