It’s been 40 years since legendary Bay Area punk pioneers Flipper kicked off their highly individualistic career—garnering praise from critics around the country and influencing future rock legends as diverse as Kurt Cobain, Moby and The Melvins. Veterans of the old school San Francisco rock scene, these post-punk trendsetters are celebrating their anniversary by hitting the road with The Jesus Lizard vocalist David Yow and bassist Rachel Thoele for a Northern California tour. San Jose punk icons Ribzy and Salinas punk band Infirmities share the bill for this show.
