From wrestlers to rappers, locals are all pitching in to get kids ready for the school year. Hardcore kids are getting in on the action, too.

Promoters at Coffin Collective have teamed up with Black & queer-led nonprofit Voices of Florida for this backpack drive where bringing school supplies gets you discounted cover for this bill featuring Cornered’s first Bay area show in six years, plus the Tampa debut of Intrabloom, St. Pete heavy-hitter Walled City, and more.

Cover for the Back II School Slam at Tampa's Deviant Libation on Saturday, Aug. 3 is $10, but $5 if you pitch in. Readers are invited to submit their own events to Creative Loafing Tampa Bay’s things to do calendar.
