This years fest is a benefit for the Westcott Community Center in the name of Zac Connor. Zac passed away unexpectedly in August of an unknown heart condition. He was only 19 years old. A lot of you may not have known him by name but I guarantee you'd recognize his smiling face from shows. Whether from playing in Attempted Control and Dry Heave or just going absolutely insane at a Black SS show; Zac was the epitome of Syracuse hardcore punk and more importantly a great friend. I know he would be up front for BSS, AWOL, and JWSH going absolutely nuts and he'd wish for you to do the same!
All profits from the door, select merch, and additional donations will be donated to the Westcott Community Center. You can learn more about the many things the center provides at
