Eight Gigs: Bat Guano Fest 5

I like to describe Cafe Colonial as an “it is what it is” venue. But this weekend, during Bat Guano Fest 5, it will be sick as all hell. Bands include the Knockoffs (pictured), the Croissants, Dead Dads, Mad Judy and more. The whole shindig is in celebration of Ken Doose’s birthday—but, perhaps more importantly, the 25th anniversary of Bat Guano Productions. Added bonus: There is a second night of BGF on Saturday, with Captain 9's and the Knickerbocker Trio, Pug Skullz and more. This is TBD Fest for people who hate suburbanites and deejays. 3520 Stockton Boulevard, https://www.facebook.com/

In the original version of this story, we wished the wrong Ken happy birthday. Sorry!
