Once again, follow our well laid out plan for your concerting week… we’ll see you there!
FRIDAY NOV. 4th
Who: The Lemonheads
Where: Biltmore Cabaret
When: 8:00PM
Why: They’re performing their classic 1992 album ‘It’s a Shame About Ray’ in it’s entirety! That’s a whole boatload of awesome!
How Much: 13 bucks. Totally worth the early 90s flashbacks that will occur! Bring your walkman and make a 90s bootleg!!
SATURDAY NOV. 5th
Who: Adaline
Where: The Biltmore Cabaret
When: 8:00 PM
Why: One of her constant collaborators is Hawksley Workman. Uh-huh, this is going to be sensational!
How Much: 15 bucks at the door. We guarantee this will be sweet pop… not crap pop… like fanta.
SUNDAY NOV. 6th
Who: Deer Tick
Where: Rickshaw
When: 8:00PM
Why: This show is going to be so beastly it was moved from the Electric Owl to the renovated Rickshaw!
How Much: 15 bucks. If you haven’t checked out the new Rickshaw setup, this is the perfect time to do it.
MONDAY NOV. 7th
Who: GWAR
Where: Commodore Ballroom
When: 7:00
Why: On November 1st, GWAR sadly lost guitarist Cory Smoot (Flattus Maximus). They are continuing the tour in his honour.
How Much: $32.50. This could be a very powerful GWAR performance. Should be an amazing night of solidarity in the memory of Cory.
TUESDAY NOV. 8th
Who: The Barr Brothers and Little Scream
Where: The Electric Owl
When: 8:00PM
Why: The Barr Brothers will provide your cleansing, mellow yet riveting, folk rock after the blood drenched insanity that was GWAR.
How Much: 12 bucks. 2 amazing banda, 1 amazing venue, part with your cash.
WEDNESDAY NOV. 9th
Who: Shred Kelly and Ruskin
Where: The Railway Club
When: 8:00PM
Why: I don’t know much about Shred Kelly, but Ruskin is easily one of the most exciting bands in the lower mainland. Lead singer Cory Abel, perhaps the best party-starter in the city.
How Much: 5 bucks at the door. I know, I know, Dan Mangan is here that night too… but me thinks the better value shall be here.
