February 24th, 1994

The flyer for the Cell 63 show on February 24, 1994, marks a pivotal moment in the venue's history as the first show held after the devastating 1994 Northridge Earthquake, which caused Nathan’s home to partially collapse and ultimately led to the red-tagging of the space, signaling the end of Cell 63’s basement shows. Following this, the venue relocated to a storefront on Lankershim Blvd. for this particular event. The show featured performances by 6 Volt Sunbeam, 99th Fuck You, and more, symbolizing a significant moment of both closure and new beginnings for the venue. The Lankershim storefront was owned by Dave Guthrie, who is now a tattoo artist at Nathan’s Tattoos and Piercings. The flyer reflects the resilience of the punk community, with the event emphasizing unity and perseverance through the challenges the space and its supporters faced.
