OFF! is saying goodbye with a bang, hitting up New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago for their farewell shows this July. They’re not going alone, though. Fucked Up, Surfbort, and Shellac are joining the party in each city, respectively. And there’s more – fans will get a sneak peek at the band’s latest cinematic adventure, Free LSD, with advance screenings.
Directed by Dimitri Coats, Free LSD dives into the life of a sex shop owner named Morris. He’s smitten by a younger woman who wanders into his store, sparking a series of events that sees him trying an experimental drug. Why? To fix his erectile dysfunction, of course. It’s a wild ride featuring punk legends like D.H. Peligro from Dead Kennedys and David Yow from the Jesus Lizard. Mark your calendars – screenings are set for July 17 in Chicago, July 19 in New York, and August 2 in Los Angeles.
Keith Morris, the iconic frontman of OFF! and former member of Black Flag, alongside Dimitri Coats from Burning Brides, dropped the news of their hiatus last month. But Morris isn’t resting on his laurels. He’s already plotting a comeback with another project, Circle Jerks, as he revealed on the Vinyl Guide podcast.
