There’s something about a punk band kicking it old school and nothing is more punk than a split 7-inch single.
It just so happens that Riverside’s Bonsai is celebrating the release of itsplit with Gentlemen Prefer Blood on Saturday, June 15, at Kim’s Sports Bar and Grill in Riverside.
The $5 cover nets you the limited edition vinyl, too.
In addition to Bonsai and Gentlemen Prefer Blood, French Exit, Divided Heaven and New Way On are also on the bill.

Hours before Neon Trees took the stage at Vista Murrieta High School for a special show on Saturday, June 8, I found myself outside the gates of the stadium, talking to Tamara Cella of New York City.
The Murrieta concert, which was also a fundraiser for the school’s extracurricular activities, was Cella’s 94th time seeing the band. She told me that the night would be different from all other 93 times she saw the band.
