“The Future is Unwritten”
In resurrecting a Peg City classic, UMFM101.5 & The Park Theatre are bringing the words , energy and music of Joe Strummer & the Clash back to the local stage.
This will be a celebration surrounding February 7th’s International Clash Day, for which we’ve got one hell of a cast slotted to play.
THE GUNS OF WOLSELEY feature an all-star cast of many Clash tribute gigs past. Members of SubCity, The Vibrating Beds, Kids on Fire, the Noble Thiefs, Greg Rekus & the Inside Job and many more come together with an exclusive Clash/Mescaleros set.
Reuniting out of the ashes of a punk rock scene past, THE CRACKDOWN, bring a veteran snarl that has been integral to these tribute gigs since day one. Don’t miss this chance to experience them blaze their way through both Clash repertoire and their own anthemic sing-alongs.
Making their debut at this tribute is the incredibly eclectic EL MARIACHI GHOST – who live and breathe both the Clash’s work ethic and amalgamation of influences as “their show leaps from anguish and longing to a raging fury in a heartbeat.”
Rounding out the bill are the tour de force that is DEATH CASSETTE. Arguably the most pertinent punk rock band our city has seen in years, each time this group hits the stage they’re met with a wave of ear shattering awe.
