In The Future...The Gaslight Anthem @ The Burt; Rich Aucoin @ The Pyramid; And Others...

First up, Jersey rockers The Gaslight Anthem are touring the hell out of their newest offering, American Slang, a massive global-spanning trek which, natch, includes a Winnipeg date at the Burton Cummings Theatre on September 6th. The Mezingers and Fake Problems open.

Punk vets Pennywise return to Peg City on September 12th for a gig at the Garrick. Riverboat Gamblers are the evening’s sonic appetizers.

Arbutus Records (Montreal) label mates Grimes and Pop Winds drop by Freud’s Bathouse and Diner on August 23rd.

Anthemic pop wunderkind Rich Aucoin has been added to the Hot Hot Heat/Hey Rosetta! bill going down at the Pyramid on October 2nd.

And finally, Jordan Catalano is bringing his so-called band Frozen Embryos to the Burton Cummings Theatre on September 18th. And I have word that Tino *will* be drumming.
