Although some of you might have been in grade school when frontman Ralph Spight toured that band in the late \u201980s and early \u201990s, now you can catch his latest solo project, the Freak Accident. The band opens for Canada\u2019s legendary NoMeansNo on four West Coast dates. It\u2019s no secret that Abstract Entertainment promoter Brian McKenna has a soft spot for the aforementioned bands and always tries to route them to the Valley whenever possible. Some shows just pay the bills and others bring pure bliss; this one delivers on both fronts. The Freak Accident plays Harlow\u2019s, located at 2708 J Street, on Monday with NoMeansNo. Tickets are $12 and the fun begins at 9 p.m. Find out more at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thefreakaccident.com\/\">www.thefreakaccident.com<\/a>.<br>(SN&amp;R)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you consider yourself an audiophile and don\u2019t own\u00a0Things I Hate To Admit\u00a0by seminal art-punk band Victim\u2019s Family, let\u2019s just say you haven\u2019t completed your collection.
