It’s been less than a year since …By The Deed played their first show, and the Pittsburgh hardcore band shows no sign of slowing down.
Next up for the band is a Benefit for Palestine show on Friday at Spirit Music Hall in Lawrenceville. They’ll be joined by Fight On Sight, Bad Bet, May Day Marching Band and Uprising. The all-ages show, with doors opening at 6 p.m., has a suggested donation of $15 to $20, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds.
