Beloved Sacramento punkers The Secretions are celebrating 20 years of being a band (congrats fellas!) with a three-day festival they have dubbed “Suck-Fest,” in honor of their slogan, “We Secrete, You Suck,” from May 27 to May 29, 2011 at Fire Escape Bar and Grill in Citrus Heights. The lineup is absolutely insane, boasting over two dozen of Sacramento’s and the Bay Area’s best bands including The Mr. T Experience, The Left Hand, Bastards of Young, Pets, The Enlows, Brian Hanover, The Snot-Cocks, The Hybrid Creeps, Ashtray, The Secretions (that’s a given) and many more. Friday, May 27, will see The Secretions playing an “alumni set” where former band members Julie Bruce, Morgan Giles, Tom Working and Kevin Stockton will make guest appearances. On Saturday, May 28, The Secretions will play a “20 Years in 60 Minutes” set where they will blast through a solid hour of tunes spanning their entire two decades as a band. And finally Sunday, May 29, will be “Secreti-oke,” where The Secretions will play a set featuring guest vocalists hand-picked by the band from some of their favorite local groups. Good luck picking just one night to attend, as they all look really, really good. You might want to just plan on camping out in the parking lot. Anybody got an RV?
