Trouble Makers!

Was just scanning the list of upcoming gigs at Old Ironsides, and was stoked to see this: The Trouble Makers 15th anniversary show on March 28. These local garage-punk stalwarts only play once or twice a year, if that, but that's probably to the relief of club owners. A Trouble Makers set usually ends in some kind of destruction, be it a blown amp or spilled pint glasses, or maybe singer Tim Foster will jump on top of the bar and start running. So don't let their matching vests and pointy boots fool ya. This is garage-punk at its most primal - and fun. Can't wait ...
