Extending The Lawrence Arms’ 12th Annual War on X-Mas (2026)
The Issue
TL;DR —> Sign this if you are a fan of The Lawrence Arms and want to see them add a 3rd night for this year’s annual War On X-Mas!
—————————————————
Hey punk! Do you like decking the halls with drunken folly before bringing in the new year with 100 resolutions? Then this petition is for you!
If you didn't already know, The Lawrence Arms were founded in 1999 in Chicago, Illinois and have since been the reigning undisputed champions of the world... or for at least the last *checks notes* 27 years... but for a little over the past decade, The Larms have been selling out legendary venues like the Metro for their annual War On X-Mas.
This October, our favorite dynamic trio announced that they’ll be back to fight this hellish hallmark holiday yet again with a two-day event at Chicago’s Metro for 2026’s WOX on December 4th & 5th! But in the spirit of last minute holiday shopping, we know we can get something kick ass going in the nick of time. Now that we have over *1,000* Larmada members, we can easily kick every one of Kris Kringle’s dorky elves’ asses this year three times over. Besides… you all know how that shitty song about the pigeons goes: something something… 7 fans a-crowd-surfing, 6 openers opening, 5 shots of Malört, 4 Chicago dogs, 3 NIGHTS OF WOX, 2 Broadways songs, & 1 jagoff fan group with a petition.
Now, before you go and say, “Hey buddy, that’s not how this works!” we are gonna crack an egg of knowledge on ya:
Two years ago, in 2024 C.E., The Lawrence Arms and their Annual War On X-Mas faced a similar holiday hurdle. However, thanks to some local Chicago punk bands, over 100 crazy fans with bad matching orgcore tattoos, and the powers of democracy that be, we petitioned for our heroes to put on an intimate rip-roaring Thursday night show at the Cobra Lounge before their sold-out doubleheader at the Metro. (It is truly amazing what the power of a little guerrilla marketing, some signatures, and a bunch of devoted fans can do for their favorite band.) Last year we had over *250* signatures and were able to organize some rad times for our own Larmada sponsored fan events on Thursday/Sunday (IYKYK). But anywho, as they say, third time’s the charm so this is really must be our year for sure!
Sign this petition to convince Brendan, Chris, & Neil that the fans of the Lawrence Armada are ready and willing to give it all for THREE FULL NIGHTS (again) for the 12th ANNUAL WAR ON X-MAS!
