CATASTROPHE 5th BIRTHDAY
BLINK-182 AND EMO HITS
COVER SHOW
We’re celebrating five years of Catastrophe with a massive throwback to our past half decade of gigs!
Blink-182’s Take Off Your Pants and Jacket album turns 25 this year, and LINK-182 will be back at Crowbar to cover the album live in full! All 13 tracks played in order, followed by bonus Blink bangers (and a couple of the TOYPAJ hidden tracks).
Emo AF are covering the best of our past Catastrophe lineups! With an epic setlist featuring My Chemical Romance, Paramore, AFI, Sum 41, Avril Lavigne, New Found Glory, Jimmy Eat World, Taking Back Sunday, Yellowcard and more! Plus a couple of All American Rejects songs for anyone who was heartbroken by their recent festival cancellation.
The cabaret-core crew Ruffians are playing their unique mix of emo, big band and punk, equipped with a three piece horn section and vocalist sounding like a cross between Brendon Urie, MJ and Freddie Mercury.
Party punks Chris Duke and the Royals are rounding out this stacked bill, kicking of the show with their infectious ska and skate punk tunes. You might have caught them last year performing The Lion King soundtrack for our Punk Goes Disney show.

Panic! At The Disco and Blink-182 Tribute IN NEWCASTLE
Ruffians are taking on Panic’s iconic debut album, which just celebrated its 20th anniversary last year. They’ll be bringing you all the electronica infused pop punk and the baroque emo anthems, equipped with a 3 piece horn section and an incredibly talented Brendon Urie-esque vocalist. They’ll be following up the album with extra Panic hits from Pretty Odd, Vices and Virtues, and Death Of a Bachelor.
Link-182 are delivered a stacked set of Blink-182 bangers, featuring Dal from Frenzal Rhomb/LRF on bass and vocals. They’ll be playing heaps of underrated tracks, along with the beloved Blink staples.
Punk-folk-pop collective Ess-Em are opening up the show. They blend genres with piano, trombone and guitar arrangements, while tying it all together with a punk rock sound and attitude.
