Event Description

Canada's infamous punk rock legends THE DAYGLO ABORTIONS return to Dinktown after a three-year absence for another high-octane earsplitting spectacle of deliberately offensive song titles ("Dogfarts," "Fuck My Shit Stinks," "Religious Bumfucks," "Fuck Satan to Death," among other classic Top 40 hits) and even more shocking lyrical content (find out for yourself). But hey, if you're not pissing off someone or something, then punk rock's pretty useless, right? Guitarist-vocalist-cretin Murray Acton and his wild and wooly sidekicks have been causing aneurysms in the uptight for almost half a century now, and they're only now truly catching their stride. Cranbrook is damn lucky to have the Dayglos return to our fair Key City, so don't miss out!

For over 30 years plus, MOTORAMA are Vancouver's beloved and unstoppable aggro-punk power trio, fronted by guitarist-vocalist Marcus Lander and rounded out by Orchard Pinkish (bass) and the Bertman (drums). Reminiscent of other wild-and-crazy outfits like Jesus Lizard and DOA, Motorama have taken their skull-splitting road show from Victoria to San Diego and back, over and over again, and this marks their first appearance in Cranbrook.

BROTHERHOOD OF LOST SOULS are Cranbrook's hard-rocking hooligan heroes, keeping it real on the strings of steel with gutter-bashing anthems of broken hearts, broken dreams, broken bones, and broken glass. Fronted by "Pistol Pete" Durning and fleshed out by lead guitarist Roy "Whisky Phoenix" Wilgan, bassist "Dirty Ferdy" Belland, and drummer Morgan "Sasquatch" Fraser, the Brotherhood has shared stages with such notable artists as Econoline Crush, DOA, and Dead Bob, and have bashed their way through toney dives from Edmonton to Vancouver and back.

LANDSLIDE are Cranbrook's young up-and-coming grunge-rockers, featuring guitarist-vocalist Dustin Colbert, bassist Alex Phillips, and drummer Daniel Phillips. They've spent the past year and a half racking up well-received local shows with the Honeymans, 816, Caveman & the Banshee, and Forbidden Dimension, and the sky is indeed the limit for these talented upstarts!
