The Queers, one of the highest-regarded pop punk bands in history, are returning to the same place they recorded their 2006 live album "Weekend At Bernie's." It's an absolute must-see show featuring openers Backstreet Virgins and Snot Rockets, with local punkers Highnoon Hangovers and The Damn Yous.
"The Queers are an absolute classic," says The Damn Yous about being in the line-up. "It's like getting a shot to go bowling with Ted Nugent. The Queers hold a special place in the heart of Columbus as they -- of all of the bands that have released records -- placed Don B on the cover. Finally! Don B gets his come-uppance, and on a Queers disc at that. That, my friend, is beautiful American art."
The Damn Yous describe their sound: "Crack open a bottle of greasy Motorhead, pour in some Dwarves and chase it with a shot of Wild New Bomb Turkey and you're heading for a Damn You hangover."
Sounds like fun to me.
