The Georgia Straight presents two 54-40 shows

Live Nation has announced that veteran Canadian guitar-rock group 54-40 will be playing two shows in Vancouver this fall—an all-ages show at the Vogue Theatre on Friday, October 12, and a show at the Commodore Ballroom on Saturday, October 13—in celebration of its 30 years together.

The quartet—which currently consists of Neil Osborne, Brad Merritt, Matt Johnson, and Dave Genn—first performed in 1981, and has over 2,000 performances under its belt. It is best known for such hits as “Baby Ran”, “Ocean Pearl”, and “I Go Blind".

Tickets for both shows are priced at $32.50 (plus service charges and fees) and go on sale this Friday (June 15) at 10 a.m. on the Live Nation website.
