This July 19th will be your last chance to party with us at Richard's so get your tix early coz' there is no next time. Let's make it a night to remember!

Two shows to announce:
Cumberland December 31st. We're playing New Years Eve at the Waverley. The Comox Valley has always been good to us and we're excited to party there for 2009.
Richards February 13th. We're back at our favourite venue in Vancouver for what may sadly be our last show there ever. Condos are already being sold for the tower that is going to be built on the Richards site. But, this will be a great going away party. It's Friday the 13th and Valentine's Day Eve, figure that out. Special guests announced soon.

We would like to thank everyone that came out to support us last night at Richards, it was the hottest of hot fires. Eric Solomon and his all-star band got the crowd going early with a banger of an opening set and before long the nightclub walls were sweating and the grilled cheese was flowing. Our next gig is the Commodore's big Halloween party so get a crazy costume on the go because they have cash prizes and we all know how much you love to play dress-up.

Five Alarm Funk's busy summer touring schedule has come to an end thus giving everyone a chance to catch up on neglected responsibility's such as laundry, cleaning, and writing news updates to name a few. To everyone who came out and supported us this summer we'd like to extend our deepest gratitude, you all helped make this summer most gnar. We are sad to regret that we will no longer be opening for Sly Stone on Sept 6. as the show has been canceled. On a more positive note we will still be throwing the funk javelin at Richards on Richards on Sept 12. with special guest Eric Solomon so run don't walk to Redcat, Zulu, Scratch, Beatstreet, or Highlife and get your tickets.
