Punk rock still thrives… at least at the Cobalt.
The Cobalt Hotel (917 Main St.) is hosting a fundraiser on Friday for VPAF Vol. 2. The show starts at 9pm.
VPAF Vol. 2 is a compilation of contemporary Vancouver punk bands such as The Remedials. The album follows in a long line of punk compilation albums beginning with Vancouver Complication from 1979.
VPAF Vol. 1 was released in 2007 and featured 25 bands, including Mr. Plow, Alcoholic White Trash and Aging Youth Gang. The new one has 28 bands, and among them are Bison B.C., The Rebel Spell and The Jolts.
Thank you to Tom Harrison and The Province for pimpin’ tha show! We all really appreciate the ink!
