It is really hard to imagine that Mustard Plug is 25 years old. But this locally formed ska band that took the world by storm in 1991 is still performing strong after all these years.
Of course, the city was different then, as I recall one or two shows in unsanctioned venues because we simply did not have a lot of options in those days for that style of music.
Fast forward to the present and after many years of performing on the road, Mustard Plug has,for as long as I can remember, played a special holiday show for us locals.
What makes this one stand out is that while their fans have gotten older, these former kids of the 90s are now the parents of the new millennium and will be bringing their children to this all ages show so that they too can enjoy the joys of ska music in a big open venue where wild dancing is encouraged.
Bandmate Jim Hofer says, "We may have some messages in our music, but essentially we just do this because we love it and we want people to lighten up and have fun."
So, grab the kids and come out for this festive and always fun night devoted to a band whose legacy in music is truly unmatched locally.
This all ages show will also feature bands Koffin Kats, PotatoeBabies, I Believe in Julio, and All Night Tigers.
Admission: $10 in advance, $12. day of show.
