RSVP to the event on Facebook
Last year we said, “you can’t kill Keithmas” and while it was touch and go there for a minute (like most things in 2020…) we managed to pull it off, virtual style. Even though it turned out pretty cool, we knew the future, for Keithmas at least, ain’t virtual.
So, after 11 years of joyfully celebrating The Human Riff aka Keith Richards, we are very happy to announce that we will continue celebrating Keef’s birthday, Christmas, and the music of the Rolling Stones the way the good lord intended. For Keithmas XII we GOT LIVE IF YOU WANT IT!
Grab your tickets early because this sucker always sells out. As always, 100% of the ticket proceeds benefit the Greater Vancouver Food Bank.
Thanks to Phillips Brewing Co.

Rich Hope
It’s said around town that seeing Rich Hope is an essential rite of passage. In a city that often obsesses over ephemeral trends, Hope’s explosive rock ’n’ soul man revue proved as enduring as the coastline.
