The Shedboyz - Covering what's Loud in PT.

About Me

.. ..

It was started by one guy named Jim who used it as a moniker to raise a ruckus, and have some fun...

The Shedboyz started in the mid 90's. Most of the work that the 2 OB's (Original boyz) do in the real world, is outside of the state, involved in other aspects of the music, skate, and technology industries, but together and individually, we have produced some fun events over the years in PT...so hence, Shedboyz was born to promote the local shows that we promoted, or help with in one way or another, as well as support what rock/punk scene there was in the area.

Nowadays (June, 05) , The Shedboyz is a forum to spotlight and support the efforts of the bands, fans, and people who like and promote "loud" music in Port Townsend. Over the years, these people have built a scene at various venues which entertains over 5000 fans a year at over a dozen shows in Port Townsend. We also report on the burgeoning scene in Port Angeles, especially at The Upside, where that venue has given PA a much needed regular all ages venue, and supports bands with the same passion we do.

MOST of us like (and it's been this way for 10 years)...bands that rock, packed shows and fast food. MOST of us hate...Bands that don’t promote their shit, trust funders, people who think they are cool, but really are lame.
