Propaganda Lakeworth Florida Info and Review

Another little known place (except to locals in LW), this music venue supplies South Florida with a diverse collection of bands and sounds. Hip-Hop, Punk, Rock and just crazy mixtures of musical geners can be heard here. Bands like Dead Prez, Everymen, Premo vs World, Barons of Tang can be heard here through out the week except Sunday and Monday. This place is small so if you are claustrophopic beware. Other than that this place rocks! So if you like great funky music of all styles and heavley tattooed people with fantastic facial hair then PROP as the locals call it (Propaganda) is the place for you.
