Sun., April 5, 6:30 p.m., The Boardwalk, $15
It’s hard to believe that original members Kurt Brecht and Spike Cassidy have kept D.R.I. (Dirty Rotten Imbeciles) together for 33 years. What originally started as a sloppy, ultra-fast-paced punk group with songs clocking near the minute mark, D.R.I. has grown and become a tour de force with many memorable anthems including “Five Year Plan,” “I Don’t Need Society” and “Beneath The Wheel.” While some may argue that the band’s best material was written during its humble beginnings in Houston, Texas, all will be pleased to know D.R.I. plays songs from all eras. Also on the bill are Solanum, Yankee Brutal, Conceived In Chaos, Petty Education and Hacked To Smithereens. 9426 Greenback Lane in Orangevale, www.dirtyrottenimbeciles.com.
