Re-blogged from Bandcamp.com<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

It\u2019s a warm Friday night in Honolulu\u2019s Chinatown, and local punk band Smoke Free Armstrong are playing their final show to a packed crowd at the Downbeat Lounge, a venue that, in recent years, has been ground zero for the city\u2019s DIY punk scene. Between songs, guitarist and singer Steve Tanji grabs the mic to offer a sincere tribute. \u201cI just want to thank you guys, from the bottom of my heart, for letting us play for you,\u201d he says. The crowd of kids gathered in front of the stage cheer in response. \u201cWe\u2019ve been playing for two years, and I want to thank you all for coming out and supporting the scene.\u201d<\/p>\n
