Live Tonight: Robot Versus Monster, Bif Naked

Thursday, June 18

Robot Versus Monster, Rocket Reducers, The Czar, The Kaiser, The King
The Club


Last time I heard Robot Versus Monster play, they were down at the Manhattan Room. Since then, they've been off my radar completely. It's not out of character for this bizarro punk band to pop back up when least expected. If they can stage deaths on stage complete with fake blood, a resurrection is out of the question. Also on the bill are Rocket Reducers, an Ontario punk band, and The Czar, The Kaiser, The King, a Regina post-hardcore outfit made up of previous members of Chapel Hill and Dave Schneider of the Hot Blood Bombers on bass.

Robot Versus Monster - Deploy All Monsters


Bif Naked, Scatterheart, The Manvils
The Distrikt


Bif Naked has seen her share of ups and downs in the Canadian music industry. Making her sixth album, The Promise, though, had all new challenges: namely, having to recover from breast cancer. Throughout the ordeal, Bif's remained unfailingly open to her fans through her blog and has managed to release an album that, while not reaching the popularity of '98's I Bificus, is line with her career of self-confident rock 'n' roll. Bif Naked will also be appearing with Scatterheart and the Manvils.

Bif Naked - Sick


Also Appearing Tonight
- Adam Gregory, the hit country artist with three solo albums and a guest spot on "Achy Breaky Heart" under his belt, is down at Evraz Place.
- Collin Raye, an early '90s country hitmaker, and Restless Heart are playing down at the Casino Regina Show Lounge.
- Rounding out Regina's country quotient is Brad Johner, of solo and Johner Brothers reknown, playing at the Drink.
