Organized chaos: Gainesville punk scene draws on history and community

Respite Events hosted a concert Wednesday at How Bazar, located at 60 SW 2nd St., aiming to showcase three punk rock bands and a performance from drag artists, “The Boheme Coven.” In downtown Gainesville, where energetic nightclubs and lavish restaurants meet, lies a passion for punk rock not only as a genre, but as a way of life.


Thoughts on The Alligator’s furniture

In our modest four-room office, there is a smooth wooden table where Gainesville Sun publishers from the golden days once sat. It is long and official-looking. It seats eight, but normally there’s 12 chairs tucked in close, shoulder to shoulder, familiar with sweaters and sports bras and T-shirts leaned against their backs rather than suit jackets.
