I will be there, hope to see others. Morgan is a rocking drummer. So Morgan told me some fun things about this Canadian band. First of all, they are going on tour with Cindy Lauper, Deborah Harry etc. They won't be at every show but will be at a the Vegas show (not the bay area one though).
Secondly, they are being well represented by their agent (Jake Gold from Canadian Idol), though they have a brutal tour schedule.
Finally, the main singer is transgender which makes it the first out tg identified person to make it big (well let's hope they do) in the pop/rock scene that I can think of anyway.
Date: Monday, 6/4

On Snakehouse, The Cliks have created something mysterious yet transparent, specific yet universal, timeless yet intoxicatingly new. This is music that seems to emanate from a parallel universe, one where fundamental distinctions are blurred, living passionately is the highest level of existence and rock & roll is the ultimate form of expression.
A final suggestion: PLAY LOUD, and prepare to have your preconceptions obliterated.
The Cliks - led by vocalist/guitarist Lucas Silveira with Morgan Doctor (drums), Nina Martinez (guitar), Jen Benton (bass) - are known for their blazing, uncompromising live performances. The ferocious Toronto-based band will be touring the US performing songs from their forthcoming album, 'Snakehouse' (April 24/Tommy Boy/Silver Label). From the brash, energetic first single "Oh Yeah" or the sexy yet gutsy "Leading Me On," to their crowd favorite radical re-working of Justin Timberlake's "Cry Me A River," The Cliks deliver a "defiant intensity" (MTV.com).
