Acrpost: A Project of the Pacific Association of Artist Run Centres

Event Description

Friday May 17th for BC’s Ultimate AC / DC Tribute BC / DC playing two sets. Karaoke in between sets.

There are tribute bands, and then there's BCDC. They were born of bush party ashes in the summer of 1999.

BCDC Unlike many tribute acts claiming to be "North America's #1 Clone" or "Just Like the Real Thing", BC/DC has turned the tables. The band takes a comedic approach, claiming the tunes as their own, and to having "heard of some BC/DC tribute band from Australia". They rarely give factual interviews to big city press. Adding to the schtick, the band members all go by comic aliases - lead singer Brendan Raftery's Brian "Bon" Johnscottson paying respects to both AC/DC's famous frontmen. It's working. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

BC/DC's live show has become a legendary, and necessary, "rite-of-passage" amongst their unwavering supporters and believers. With over-the-top stage energy, they deliver every last note of all the classic songs with absolute authority. You get tired just watching them. BC/DC is heavily rooted in the Bon Scott-era catalog (Dirty Deeds, TNT, Jailbreak, Let There Be Rock), but also covers AC/DC's second "golden era" with all the essentials; Back in Black, For Those About to Rock, Hells Bells, and many more. Hey, there's always another AC/DC tune.. and BC/DC always seems more than eager to blast it out.
