Me First and The Gimme Gimmes will be performing at The Backyard Stage of the St. Augustine Amphitheatre on Friday, May 3, 2024. Presented by Intuition Ale Works.
For those not in the know, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes is “THE” punk super- group and cover band extraordinaire of 2024. Consisting of punk legends, John Reis (guitarist and lead vocals for Rocket from the Crypt), the celebrated scamp Joey Cape from Lagwagon on guitar, and Pinch – from The Damned – on the skins. Add to the crew Fat Mike, master bassist from NOFX, and CJ Ramone from a little band you may have heard of, The Ramones, and rounded out by the incomparable crooner, Spike Slawson. When duty calls for one of the Gimmes to perform with their other band, rest assured a traveling Gimme will step in.
Together, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes are an outfit that has always operated more like a beer-hall Pussycat Dolls than a regular mortal band. In 2004, they had the pleasure of ruining Johnny’s Bar Mitzvah. They have since crashed another party and bring you Me First and the Gimme Gimmes Blow It…at Madison’s Quinceañera!
After 7 studio albums, 2 live records, and too many singles to count, they’ve tackled just about every genre under the sun. Be it Motown, Country, Show Tunes, Japanese Pop (sung in Japanese!), these seasoned punk rock pros have triumphed on every occasion in a way only the Gimmes could.
