This just in: GWAR will be playing Victoria on Nov. 25 at Sugar (the site of their show back in 1990, I think). Tickets are on sale late next week at the usual outlets. This is the truth. Believe it. Openers are Dying Fetus and All That Remains. The tour is called the "Mock the Vote" Tour and will feature songs from their new album, "War Party." It will sell-out. - Thu, 23 Sep 2004 4:50pm

Huh? On their website, it says they're playing Vancouver at the Commodore on November 25th.

They don't have a show booked for the 24th, but are in Calgary on the 23rd, which is rather far.

I'm confused. Stop messing with my brain. - Thu, 23 Sep 2004 7:22pm

Then on ticketmaster is says they're playing Van on the 24th.

Has my dream of GWAR playing Victoria actually come true?

If so, Sweet Baby Jesus, thank for for finally answering my prayers! - Thu, 23 Sep 2004 7:27pm

they played sugar but of course the stage was on the either side - I know this because Jho Nek Bhone played the next night and all our gear was covered in Gwar goo becuase although they put up alot of platic the goo still gets everywhere - gwar goo became a fixture in the lexicon of our band - Fri, 24 Sep 2004 11:15am

'94? It was their "Scumdogs of the Universe" tour. In my drunken recollections the inestimable Mr. Rob Nesbitt was moshing around, and the 'Caffiene Break' bassist played barefoot.

Thanks Doug! I knew it was then sometime, and I remember alot of people stuck outside. Wondering if anyone knows the stage show for this tour? Im hoping the stick to the Scumdogs regimen, since those are mostly the only songs I like, with the exception of a few earlier punk style songs they did pre-fame. - Thu, 30 Sep 2004 10:33am

I saw them in Seattle not even a year ago.... I think that it'll probably be the same show. They did a couple of songs off the new album... Some from Violence (the best album) some older ones, too.

from my recollection of the last Victoria Gwar show.. it was in the same room but the stage was at the high end of the room ( as it still should be.. )
