Warning: Oakland's Stork Club to Host The Mentors' Anti-Antifa Rape Rock Tour

This is a heads up that self-proclaimed "rape rock" band The Mentors have announced their Anti Antifa 2017 tour includes a performance at Oakland's Stork Club on Tuesday, September 5.

No time is listed on the official poster art for the tour, but presumably it would be an evening show (the time displayed here is merely a guess, so stay tuned for further details on date and time as they emerge).

Oddly, the Stork Club calendar does not currently list such a The Mentors show. The date is blank.

Contact the Stork Club and demand that the venue not host a band this hateful, fascist, and vile. If the Stork Club refuses to deny The Mentors a platform, then an in-person demonstration of opposition would be in order.

Do what you will, but The Mentors should not be allowed to slip into Oakland unnoticed.

Spoke with someone at the Stork—they said the Mentors are *not* playing 9/5/17. They were removed from the calendar.

Person I spoke with on the phone said they'd never really been booked—it was posted without authorization. Would be interested to know more.

Could it be that the Stork Club is intimidated and is afraid that they may be harmed by this Fascist group?

U guys r funny. I personally know these guys and there all really cool. U guys r boycotting,trolling and attacking a band u know nothing about. Tell u what. U don't like this band than stay away from them. If others wanna c this band then that's there right.
