West Coast Motorcycle Rock and Roll
« on: September 16, 2012, 09:33:36 PM »
Hi folks, I'm looking for a little help. I play in a garage/punk band that is motorcycle themed. We are from Vancouver BC Canada. We are going to do a US tour probably in the spring. I'm looking for info on West Coast cities and their bike scenes. What (good times) clubs exist, where is good to play, who I want to talk to etc. You can hear us at TheViciousCycles.bandcamp.com
If you're in the rock and roll scene in your town, or if you can send me in the right direction to someone that is it would be much appreciated. We're gong to try to play as many clubhouses etc as possible on this trip as we can.

I love you guy's!The Vicious cycles Rock!I have one of your patches on my jacket.If you were going to the east coast I can definetly help.Look up The Shakedown in Bellingham,you'd fit right in.Are you going to play the Cretins clubhouse in Seattle??I'll go.
its better to regret something you have done,than something you havent.Except playing with explosives.

Thx Bart! I think the new Cretins clubhouse is not as good for live bands as the old one. Not sure about that. I only know those guys as people I follow on twitter, but I might go down for their 20th coming up.

Flybox1, thanks for posting that video! There is another one that is all bike footage from our Cuba tour. It's called "I love my bike" and has tons of cool Cuban bikes. If I can figure out how to, I'll post it on here.
