In 1995, I opened Head Line Records Store here in Los Angeles. From the beginning, Head Line Records has been totally DIY. Also from its inception, the store has doubled as a makeshift club where both local & touring bands can play. Since we started almost 10 years ago, we’re proud to say that we’ve had over 500 | |

Unfortunately, on Feb 28th 2002 (25 ta Life, Skaretactic, Folsom, Low Life) the store was shut down by the fire department. The decision to stop doing the shows at the store was hard, but necessary. We didn’t really have a choice. This section of the Head Line Web Site (flyer section) is dedicated to all the bands who played at the store and people who help the scene stay alive. Thanks a lot.
