Saturday, March 10: The Bad Plus

Pantages Theater

By Volcano Staff on March 8, 2012

Everything is jazz. Or damn near everything. As The Bad Plus proves, bald heads and fu Manchu mustaches are pretty freakin' jazzy, too. But let us not trivialize this world-renowned jazz band, hitting Tacoma's Pantages Theater Saturday, as anything but remarkable. There's good reason why Billboard, and subsequently the Broadway Center's website, hypes the band as, "America's most "audacious, rule-breaking jazz trio." It's because all those aforementioned adjectives apply.

Plus there's the facial hair.

Catch The Bad Plus in Tacoma Saturday taking on Stravinsky's Rite of Spring - a pairing that should make for quite an evening of entertainment.

[Pantages Theater, 7:30 p.m., $24-$56, 901 Broadway, Tacoma, 253.591.5890]
