. Friday, September 3rd IMU presents DRIVE Cars Tribute w/ CRAZY DIAMONDS Pink Floyd Tribute & The BLUE BUS @ The Railway Club, 579 Dunsmuir . Doors 9pm / Cover $12 @ the door

DRIVE - Vancouver's own tribute to The Cars pays homage to one of the most successful American bands to ever emerge from the late '70s New Wave era. The Cars' uncanny timing and unusually sleek style created a contagious, irresistable and distinctive sound with elements of early rock nroll, the British Invasion, art rock and punk. With a catalog of songs that still enjoy immediate recognition nearly three decades later, DRIVE delivers tight, faithful renditions of The Cars' edgy streamlined sound with spot-on vocals, riffs and tempos for fans to groove along to!

CRAZY DIAMONDS - In the 12 months they've been together, Vancouver's one and only Pink Floyd tribute act has already built up a sizable following playing clubs like The Media Club, Railway Club and Backstage Lounge. These musicians are serious about honoring the music of Pink Floyd and delivering a powerful live show that presents the best of their mindblowing, psychedelic music. http://www.myspace.com/crazydiamondstributeband

The BLUE BUS - Members of the Unknown Soldiers, Midnight Lightning and Heads Hang Heavy have conspired together to create a new musical ride that seems strangely familiar yet somehow alien. Some say it's blues, some say it's rock or folk... perhaps it's all three mixed together in a musical blender and seasoned with a dash of grit and grind and a hint of the Velvet Underground. Judge for yourself and come take a ride on The Blue Bus! http://www.myspace.com/ridethebluebus
