Pennywise Coming to the Myth, May 23
Old-school punk rockers Pennywise will be coming to the Twin Cities on May 23 as part of the Jagermeister Music Tour. Tickets go on sale Feb. 21, $25 general admission (not bad!). They will be joined by Hawaiian rockers Pepper for an evening of windmill flails and tornado kicking mosh pit madness. (Note: I’m guessing the Myth doesn’t condone such activity, and they probably also don’t condone me condoning such activity. Incidentally, I also don’t condone me condoning such activity, and hence, I’m not condoning this either… got it?) Here’s a portion of the official press release.

THE JÄGERMEISTER MUSIC TOUR RAGES ON!
PENNYWISE AND PEPPER TO CO-HEADLINE 2009 SPRING TOUR(New Rochelle, NY) – Stage dive into spring with the Jägermeister Music Tour! Jägermeister is teaming up with legendary American punk band, Pennywise and dub rock trio, Pepper for this year’s spring Jägermeister Music Tour. The tour kicks off on April 13th in Seattle, Washington.
Pennywise is one of the most significant bands to emerge from Southern California punk’s second wave. The Pennywise current line-up, which has remained constant since 1996, consists of Jim Lindberg (vocals), Fletcher Dragge (guitar), Randy Bradbury (bass) and Byron McMackin (drums). Formed in 1988 in Hermosa Beach, California, Pennywise have released nine-full length studio albums, one live album, two extended plays and one DVD. Their most recent studio album is Reason to Believe, which was released to over 500,000 fans for free through a limited-time offering from their new label, MySpace Records. The critically acclaimed album was also sold physically and digitally the world over. The Western World, the first single from this watershed album, became the most successful single of the band’s storied career. (Source – Jagermeister Music Tour)
