Eight Gigs: Subhumans U.K.
Mon., Oct. 26, Midtown Barfly, 7 p.m., $12
Sacramento has become quite the destination for seminal touring acts and this Monday's show is certainly no exception to the rule. If you don't own Subhumans U.K.'s The Day The Country Died (1983), perhaps you need to update your collection. Singer Dick Lucas can still belt 'em out, as evidenced on their last full-length patter, Internal Riot (2007). Hardcore fans living here can rejoice in a short commute to the venue and, more importantly, an early start and end time. Also on this fantastic all-ages bill are the Bay Area's own La Plebe and Oakland's Love Songs. You could do much worse. 1119 21st Street, www.facebook.com/Subhumans-UK-137812882953527.
