A Punk Rock Legend Comes to Seattle Tomorrow Night!

March 13th, 2009

It’s not very often that a legend comes to Seattle. And yet, tomorrow night, just such an event is occuring. In fact, you don’t just get one legend, you get two! Tomorrow at the GRN STRP House in the U-District, Classics of Love and Mike Park will be playing with local favorites Dateless and the Damage Done. Classics of Love features the band Hard Girls (members of Shinobu and Pteradon) with the legendary Jesse Michaels of Operation Ivy and Common Rider fame. This is only the third time Jesse has played in Seattle (once each time with those bands), and people are driving from as far as Montana for the show!

.

Along with Classics of Love, Asian Man Records Founder Mike Park will be playing. You might remember him from bands like Skankin’ Pickle, the Chinkees, and The Bruce Lee Band. He was at the center of the third wave ska explosion way back when it was just getting started, and has continued to be a trend setter in terms of the music he plays and the albums he puts out on his label.

.

Throw in the fact that this is Dateless’ second to last Seattle show EVER, and you have to show up. In short, this is a show you wont want ot miss in one of the most intimate atmospheres you will ever see these artists! And all the money goes to the touring bands, so please come and support the local scene!
