The Bags at Willie Alexander’s 70th Birthday Party

Saturday, January 12, 2013 – The Bags had the pleasure of playing at Willie Alexander’s surprise birthday party! Boston Rock would not be the same without Willie – we were honored to be invited. Read about the evening here, and here.

The Bags at The Channel in 1988

Here’s some ace Glenn Gardner footage of The Bags performing an unreleased song at The Channel (Boston, MA) on June 3, 1988.

The second verse features improvised lyrics about Jon’s bass, which was stolen at a show the week prior.

Yes, that’s Chris Doherty (Gang Green) doing his impression of an enthusiastic roadie at the 2:12 mark.

Bad News Retold

This site was hacked, and the originally posted bad news was lost. So here it is again.

Unfortunately The Bags will not be playing with The Neighborhoods, rockers supreme, on November 12 at Church. Our sincerest apologies to everyone who was planning to come see us. Hopefully we will see you in 2012.

In the meantime, go see The Neighborhoods / Unnatural Axe / The Sleazies. Tickets are here.

Video from 11/13/2010 Show

We had a great time at The Midway on November 13. Thanks to everyone who went off the beaten path and came out to the show (a.k.a. The Live Rehearsal). All the bands were awesome! Thanks to Penis Fly Trap for letting us use their gear.

More shows in the future? Stay tuned.

Here’s some video, thanks to Glenn Gardner.
