The Weakerthans
Where: Launchpad Night Club & Restaurant
Date: 2007-09-28 21:00:00
Type:
Hailing from Canada, The Weakerthans is a four-piece folk/rock/punk band. The distorted cry of a lap steel guitar slices through the night. A voice sings with aching sweetness and strength. Caressing melodies are barbed with stinging solos. This is the sound of The Last Town Chorus.

Orange County California's (hed)p.e. has announced the dates for their upcoming Heavy Hitters Tour featuring Kingspade, SubNoize Souljaz (featuring Big B, Dirtball), Dog Faced Gods and Insolence. "What a way to start the new year! 2008 promises to be the best year (hed)p.e. has ever seen. We laid the ground work in the last two years, and we are experiencing such a swell right now that we feel so blessed by the youth of this planet earth,” says frontman Jared Gomes. “The Heavy Hitters tour, which is a co-headline tour with Kingspade, promises to be one of the freshest tours of early 2008. Kingspade is just straight dope and they possess the freshness of the Kottonmouth Kings, but with a nice hip-hop twist. We are just so stoked to be able to go on the road, and give the kids what they want; diversity. Because everyone knows they will never get it from those bitch-ass corporate tours. This is an official takeover!" Listen to Kingspade & the SubNoize Souljaz @ http://www.ninjatactics.net Visit www.SuburbanNoizeRecords.com for more info
