2009-09-09: Planks at Fringe Festival Gala afterparty

The Planks are chuffed to be playing (from 10:30 pm until… late!) at the St. Ambroise Fringe Bar immediately following the Vancouver Fringe Festival’s Opening Gala.  Our performance will be situated in the Agro Cafe (1363 Railspur Alley) on Granville Island with the rest of the Fringe Festivities.  Head-scratchingly, we won’t be there on one of the nights it hosts the Plank Club, but I suppose we guarantee one of our own.  We haven’t been involved with the Fringe at all since being a backup band in 2005’s Jew! A Musical so it’s a nice opportunity to touch base with our roots and commiserate with actors crying in their drinks over the latest round of arts cuts.
