The Royal Space Chimps launched into a chaotic, ska-charged take on “Where Is My Mind” that had the whole room howling along. They flipped that iconic anthem into pure Austin punk mayhem at Friday the 13th F*ck Cancer Fest at Kick Butt Coffee—horns blazing, tempo up, zero fear. It was sweaty, wild, and somehow still heartfelt. Two stages, one cause, and a crowd losing it together in true Old Austin fashion. #RoyalSpaceChimps #KickButtCoffee #AustinSka #FuckCancer #FridayThe13th

Last night at Kick Butt Coffee, The Royal Space Chimps absolutely blasted off and turned the room into full-on ska-punk mayhem—in the best possible way. From the moment they hit the stage in their intergalactic jumpsuits, it was clear this wasn’t just a set, it was an experience. Roaring horns, rocket-fueled guitar riffs, and breakneck rhythms collided into a sound that felt both classic and completely unhinged. Their cosmic take on ska-punk thrives on momentum, and they kept the crowd moving nonstop, feeding off the room and sending that energy right back into it. The theatrical flair, sci-fi themes, and wild audience participation only amplified the chaos, making it impossible to stand still or not grin through the whole set. Sharing bills with fellow Austin staples like Josh Langford and The Last Callers, The Royal Space Chimps fit perfectly into a night that celebrated just how alive and interconnected the local scene really is. Kick Butt Coffee once again proved why it’s such a vital launchpad for bands like this—an independent venue that embraces creativity, weirdness, and high-energy performances without compromise. Supporting local music means supporting spaces that let bands take risks and audiences lose themselves for a night. Shows like this are exactly why Austin’s live music culture continues to thrive. #AustinSka #SupportLocalMusic #KickButtCoffee #RoyalSpaceChimps #KeepAustinLive
