Now it our 7th year, Budget Rock Showcase has grown to be the West Coast's longest running festival for trashy, out of tune (formerly known as "garage")
wacked out music otherwise ignored by the Indie Rock Establishment. From our humble beginnings in 2002 at Thee Parkside in San Francisco, we moved in 2006
to even an even more humble home at Oakland's Stork Club. Voted "Best Bay Area Music Festival" by the SF Weekly in 2008, Budget Rock VII promises to be another blowout of epic proportions.
Over the last 7 years we've hosted unforgettable performances by the LYRES, ORIGINAL SINS, REAL KIDS, TRASHWOMEN, CRIME, COMETS ON FIRE, GENTLEMEN JESSE, PHANTOM SURFERS, FE FI FO FUMS, FLESHTONES,
WOGGLES, MORLOCKS, NOBUNNY, OKMONIKS, ROY LONEY, THE LEGENDARY STARDUST COWBOY, HAUNTED GEORGE, TYVEK, HEX DISPENSERS, SOUTH BAY SURFERS, MARKED MEN, BLANK-ITS, SUSPICIONS,
FLAKES, CAPTAIN 9's AND HIS KNICKERBOCKER TRIO, HAROLD RAY LIVE IN CONCERT, ROCK N ROLL ADVENTURE KIDS, KNIGHTS OF THE NEW CRUSADE, THE PETS, TIME FLYS, SNEAKY PINKS and many many more. See the photos for past posters. This year continues to evolve the concept into the netherworlds of related "music" from the 1960s to the distant future.
Hosted by Bay Area transplant and universally loved gadfly NOBUNNY, Budget Rock Seven will exhaust your senses and leave you broke. We'll have the now legendary TACO TRUCK,
HOT DOG EATING CONTEST 6:30 on Saturday, RECORD SWAP, FREE SUNDAY PANCAKE BREAKFAST Noon to 3pm and all the other poorly planned ventures you've come to expect.
