Thursday Preview: Rock n' Roll

Wondering what's coming up in this week's Eye on Entertainment in The Californian?

Wonder no more! Coming this Thursday: WOTS, rock and rock with motorcycles ...


"Look Ma! I'm pointing at something!" Michigan man band Bear Vs. Shark

WHEN BANDS ATTACK: Bear Vs. Shark

Back to play the punk rock dungeon that is Jerry's Pizza next Wednesday, singer Marc Paffi and his band "Bear Vs. Shark" are the first out-of-town act to be part of our new "Why?" feature that asks band's to tell us why Bakersfieldians should come to their show.

Paffi also wants you to know that he makes dentures for a living and that the A/C is broken in their tour van. Go to the show. They need the money for air conditioning!

THE "SUM" OF ALL FEARS: Sum 41 Q&A

They promised you "All Killer No Filler" and asked you "Does This Look Infected?" Now the rock n' roll pranksters are back in Bako, still promoting their latest album "Chuck." The Canadians with the Cali pop punk sound (featuring lead singer Deryck Whibley, guitarist/vocalist Dave Baksh, bassist Cone McCaslin and drummer Steve Jocz) are playing Bakersfield Thursday night at the MontGo Plaza (That's Montgomery World Plaza). I got to interview Baksh and we chatted about his band's possible new reality show for MTV2 and the hot romance between Sum 41's lead singer and pop rock All-Star, Avril Lavigne.

BIKES, BEER, BANDS, BABES, BAKERSFIELD?: The First-Annual Bakersfield Thunder Run

Hey? Who invited all these celebrity motorcycle fabricators to the party? And they're in Bakersfield for a huge show? And some TV shows will be there filming? And they're going to do a live bike build with a local bike builder? And there's a bunch food, plenty to drink AND a rock concert featuring Trainwreck, Sick Trigger, The Filithies and the Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash? It's happening this weekend. Bakersfield's first really big biker show. Finally, all those West Coast Choppers T-shirts won't be worn in vein. Also look for a Q&A with builder Yasuyoshi “Chica” Chikazawa of Chica Custom Cycles, talking about doing that thing that he does with motorcycles.

THE WORD ON THE STREET

Ever wonder what happens when you refer to former American Idol contestant Constantine Maroulis as "freaky?" Well, for one thing, you get the FINGER WAGGING OF YOUR LIFE from C-Money fans. Hey! WOTS liked Constantine. She meant that "freaky" in a good way ... sort of.
