H2O & Incendiary Device LIVE At The Bridge Nine Warehouse! ***Update: SOLD OUT***
***UPDATE: this show is officially SOLD OUT***
This September marks the one-year anniversary of the opening of our record store in Beverly, MA. We thought the best way to celebrate would be to invite H2O to be the 4th band to play in our warehouse show series alongside Incendiary Device, fronted by NYHC legend Drew Stone!
Tickets go on sale right now. We will have a portion available online, as well as at our Beverly store (avoid service fees by coming in if you're local). Admission is $20, and all tickets are will call. As usual, attendance is very limited, so make sure to act fast! We look forward to seeing you there.
Cave In LIVE at Bridge Nine Warehouse on Friday, July 7th
Flyer designed by Thomas Hooper (@thomas__hooper)
Cave In is a band close to our hearts here in Boston. Not only did they get their start in Methuen, MA, but they were originally signed to Hydra Head, one of the labels that Bridge Nine shared a space with at the original 'Initech' office near Fenway Park!
Just over a year ago, Cave In used our then-unfinished warehouse space to record the music video for the song "Reckoning" off their album Heavy Pendulum, released on Relapse Records.
Next Friday (7/7), they're bringing things full circle and doing us the honor of performing for the third event in our B9 warehouse series! We're excited to welcome you to come and share this experience with us.
ATTENDANCE IS FREE, BUT LIMITED. You will be able to reserve your spot starting today by coming to our storefront in Beverly, MA during normal hours while supplies last. Tickets are non-transferrable.
Doors are at 7 PM, performance starts at 8 PM.

New Found Glory helps open the B9 Warehouse Matinee Series

Two years after getting the keys to our new HQ in Beverly, Mass and just six months after opening our record store here on Rantoul Street, Bridge Nine hosted our inaugural fully-plugged-in live performance with the band New Found Glory, who very graciously kicked off our first Warehouse Matinee just hours before doing double-duty at their sold-out show at the 900-seat Somerville Theatre.
Deciding to open a record store was a conscious effort to engage with people more. Our last HQ was hidden away in an industrial complex. Now that we’re on a busy street in a cool downtown area, we wanted to create opportunities for people to get together. And what better way then by inviting one of our favorite bands to perform for the most intimate of audiences?

Bridge Nine has had a long history with New Found Glory, going back to when we first met them in 2004, in Australia of all places. Chris B9 was with a band doing a club tour, and New Found Glory had just landed in the same city about to start their own tour the following day. Once they realized an American hardcore band was playing in town, they came to the show to check it out and say hello. We stayed in touch, and three years later when NFG guitarist Chad Gilbert produced our first release for H2O, the Nothing To Prove album, we started talking about releasing something for International Superheroes of Hardcore, the heavier alter-ego of NFG. That turned into the dual-release Tip Of The Iceberg 7” and ISHC LP, which came out in the spring of 2008, and the first of eleven different releases with the New Found Glory camp over the next five years.

New Found Glory is currently on tour supporting their new album on Revelation Records called Make The Most Of It, which is an acoustic album written by the band in the wake of Chad Gilbert’s cancer diagnosis. He has been receiving treatment for a rare form of cancer called Pheochromocytoma, and has sat out the second half of the tour, with Dan from Four Year Strong filling in for him. We had asked Chad if NFG would be down to play our store, and the band agreed to do it, so we created an exclusive cover for their new album in homage to the famous Judge Chung King Can Suck It LP and updated it with the Cancer Can Suck It slogan that Chad had been using on tour. These LP’s were made in a limited quantity, hand-numbered, and only available in-person at the Bridge Nine store. The bonus though, was it came with admission to see the band perform fully plugged-in less than a week later!

To get the warehouse ready, long-time supporter Larry Kelley built a drum riser and tracked down a drum set and much of the backline that was needed for the band to perform. Chris picked the band up at the Somerville Theatre in a 12-passenger van, and rushed them back to the Bridge Nine store. After a short sound check, they ripped through twelve songs in just over thirty minutes.
Everyone here at Bridge Nine wants to thank New Found Glory for playing our store and warehouse, and wish Chad Gilbert well as he continues to receive treatment for Pheochromocytoma. You were missed, and we hope you can make it out to the B9HQ on your next tour!
