In the GCBC Lounge it was punk night with several  bands playing, but downstairs was a night for contemporary rock beginning with a new trio, Milk Tea. They were playing some interesting ambient/ delay filled original   rock of the ilk of U2 with just a dash of punk.
Upstairs the Moby Dicks kicked everything off with their own brand of high volume, Ramones flavoured unusual punk which , of course, included their ode to the Red Dog diner.
I missed the Dregs, but caught the Spastic Panthers who played a lightning fast , eardrum assaulting set of old school punk which featured some impressive bass playing.
 The Browns showed how it was done, they donned  ski masks and played blisteringly fast, as they knocked off an almost  too brief set which erupted into complete chaos. Bassist  Kimbo Brown clad in a white suit and ski mask writhed among the bouncing crowd and jumped on a table, tossed his bass in the air with reckless abandon.
They played “Werewolves of Calgary,” which is in the new Tony Hawk video and had the audience singing/ shouting along with much of the set, though they also introduced a couple new songs.
