Crying Shames are a punk band based in Saint John, New Brunswick. Originally founded in 2004, they quickly established a reputation within the scene as a noisy band with terrible attitudes and an inappropriate amount of confidence. Repeatedly blacklisted by venues in 2007 due to their onstage antics, the band soon after disbanded due to infighting. Sixteen years later, Crying Shames have reunited with the addition of bassist Gavin Downes. They are heavily influenced by post-punk groups such as Gang of Four, DC hardcore bands (Nation of Ulysses), early 2000’s post-hardcore bands (Black Eyes), and 90’s alternative bands (Pixies).
Sheik is a shoegaze inspired band from Saint John, NB, that blends lush reverb soaked ambience with dream pop and alternative rock. Drawing influences from 90s alternative and too many UK groups to name, Sheik brings forth their atmospheric style in a modern way.

All patrons will be ID'd upon entry and given a coloured bracelet corresponding with their ticket type (19+ or -19). Bartenders will also be checking IDs at the bar.
