July 17th, 1993
July 17, 1993, at Club Amalgamated, featured performances by Antioch Arrow, Klikitat Ickitowi, Floodgate, and Shroom Union. The flyer also includes a quote from the poem In the Dark by A.A. Milne, the author of Winnie the Pooh.
Club Amalgamated was associated with Mighty Records/Amalgamated Records. The inclusion of Club Amalgamated on Cell 63 posters helped raise awareness and establish a connection to these record labels, which Nathan had co-founded with Paul Moshay, VP of Marketing for Delicious Vinyl. This partnership not only solidified the venue's influence but also demonstrated Nathan's expanding ventures within the music industry, as he sought to broaden his creative reach.

Antioch Arrow from San Diego is regarded as a highly influential band of the early 1990s, their experimental sound and chaotic energy played a key role in shaping the “emo” genre that would rise to prominence in the late '90s and early 2000s. In 1993, Nathan's Amalgamated Records released Genes of Masochism, an album that captured the band's raw intensity and was recorded at the legendary Beastie Boys' studio.
