This Charming Ben writes:
San Francisco's own Smiths tribute band will be returning to Sacramento and Fresno for a pair of very special shows. This month marks the 25th anniversary of the release of the Smiths' debut album, and to honor it, we'll be playing all of its 11 songs live (in addition to other Smiths and Morrissey classics). Sacramento's Blue Lamp has always been good to us, and Fresno's Club Fred has sold out the last two times we've played there (so get there early)! Details are on the flyers and the website! Thank you!
