Legion of Doom

Thank goodness for some website that never go away. In researching the punk and hardcore history of Columbus, I feel down a rabbit hole that led me to The Legion of Doom punk house, still alive on an old Tripod hosted website (they also have a Facebook page). I have never made it out to any shows, and I don't know how active they still are, but heard about the bands and scene 

Some guidelines for playing TLOD from their website:
If you want to play a show, you need to send us a recording of your band, a lyric sheet (we want to know what you're singing about- you must include this or you WILL NOT get a show no matter how much your music "kicks ass dude"), and a nice note telling us when you're looking for a show. Mike Thorn is the best contact for hardcore, crust, grind, punky punk or how he can eat more cookies than anyone else alive today, Emmett White is good to talk to about emo, scremo, metal,or being a hippie- talk to Jon Strange about indie, pop, pop punk or his future political carreer (or even better how much he hates all animals. Scott Niemet will have moved out as of January 1st, as he is moving into fireexit. All can be reached at the number above. 
All shows are all ages and cost $3 before the first band starts $4 after. Fashionably late? You lose sucker. Smoking, Drinking booze, Doing drugs and Eating meat are bad for you- so please don't do it in our house when bands are playing. If you must smoke do it outside- but please don't bring booze to shows!!! please please please- we've been doing this for over two years- and we don't want to screw it up now. If you must drink at shows- be smart. Don't flaunt it in people's faces. Pour your beer in a differant container (like a dark colored bottle), and for god sakes pick up after yourselves. Respect us and we'll respect you.
