TRaSh 80's

Sat May 31st @ The Fifth Alarm Firehouse Pub

About Me

TRaSh 80's eh? Yep. No, we are not just an 80's band. We also play tons of music from September of '93. What does the name mean you ask. Google it. It's just a name. We are 4 guys (there's been 6, sometimes 5 occasionally a girl) who play music. Of the 4, none of us can figure the other 3 out and we like it that way. We are hoping someone will take us all out for dinner and drinks. We don't care where. Fancy pants or Hot Dogs and Beer it's all the same to us. I encourage you to go see this fine group of lads whenever you get the chance. Take a look above and find your chances.
