Some nights you plan for, this one just requires showing up. On Thursday, November 5th, Red Bird welcomes Pastel Blank, the Victoria-via-Montréal project fronted by Angus Watt, for a free night of dance-punk energy wrapped in pop hooks and post-punk edges. Expect thick percussion, woozy synths, and a groove that refuses to sit still, all captured live the way it was meant to be heard. No entry fee, no pretense, just great music and maybe a little bit of boogie. This is dance music for people who don't know how to dance, and honestly, that's most of us. Come see it for yourself.
