Flier of the Week: Punk Indie Rock Wave Covers Night

Dfactor and friends will be throwing down for a night of punk covers. The flier looks like it could have come straight out of the mid-to-late '70s, with kind of a New Wave meets punk rock vibe. And the flier isn't the only awesome thing we're expecting this Flashback Friday...

Dfactor and friends will be throwing down for a night of punk covers. The flier looks like it could have come straight out of the mid-to-late '70s, with kind of a New Wave meets punk rock vibe. And the flier isn't the only awesome thing we're expecting this Flashback Friday of sorts.

A slew of your favorite songs by The Clash will be performed, as well as other hits by The Buzzcocks, The Jam, The Sex Pistols, and The Replacements, among other bands. Bulletproof Tiger and Meltdown Expected will be there for some one-off sets, so don't miss out!

The punk rock craziness is happening Friday, April 20 at 9 p.m. at Chopper John's.

Please note that although the cover charge was originally $5 for this event, it's now a free gig, so come join the party!
