Tampastica: A Local Music Extra

Christmas comeback

November 14, 2008 · 3 Comments

Christmas night, for some, means the anticlimax of a hectic holiday or the disturbing realization that your loved ones are still and always be seriously fucked.

For others, it means a memorable show at New World Brewery. 

Typically, some band from back in the day reunites and a million people show up.  

Well, this year seems to be no exception. Hankshaw is back. They’re performing with Jarvik 7.

Hankshaw defies categorization. They are a band of many moods and spectra of rock. You can wear them with a shiny vest. You can cuddle them with them on the couch. You can throw them up against the wall. Do with Hankshaw what you will.

Many remember them as a local favorite, so the show will probably sell out.

    Thanks, Matt. I hadn’t received all the details on the show. Good news though — my assigning editor has given me the greenlight to do a separate feature on the show. So all of you involved send your info to juliegaristo@verizon.net.
