AND Saturday , Jan. 31 , 9:30 pm sharp .

$12 It's a small venue ,better get there early .

the last time the Super Friendz passed> through Vancouver was last November when they were on tour with Al> Tuck and No Action. Both bands opened up for Pluto at the Starfish> Room, and the crowd just didn't seem to be happenin' for the bands> this> evening. I couldn't figure out why. The bands put on a good show and> poured out their wares dripping with talent. Like I said, I couldn't> figure it> out...until now. According to The Super Friendz, Al Tuck's road> manager> found a bright orange wicker monkey in a haunted house they were> staying at in Ottawa. The first night in Montreal they had all of> their stuff> stolen and then they almost went off the road in their van....> Singer/bass> player, Charles Austin, confirms that "[the monkey] must have been> cursed" because Al took the monkey on the road with them and nothing> seemed to go right.. Geez, you'd think they'd have learned a lesson> from> Homer Simpson when he bought a cursed monkey paw. >

Happy Birthday Matt Murphy .
