THE PERVERTS
©2004 Pabst Brewing Company
KIDSTUFF Children’s amphib-
ian walk, 10 am, BLM Wetlands Yurt.
For information call 683-6494.
The Perverts, formed in February 2003, have been slowly creep-
ing into the bedrooms of Eugene's nightlife scene. Kasey attacks
the drums with utter abandon, while Rob coaxes unearthly shrieks
and howls from his Tele,' and Nate lays down the thunderous
bass. Not your garden variety, trenchcoat-wearing, dirty old
Peeping Toms, these Perverts deliver a furious blend of punk and
rock. Make sure to catch them Friday, May 14, and see what all
the fuss is about. Check out Eugene Weekly’s clubs page and
www.theperverts.org for more details.
