Cult garage-rock band The Woggles is returning to Flicker for a ripping set featuring local band Curbside Pickups and DJ Kurt Wood. The Woggles was formed in 1987 by lead singer Mighty Manfred, before being joined by the late guitar player George Montague Holton III, bass player Buzz Hagstrom and Dan Electro on drums. The Woggles’ energetic live shows, fusing garage rock, surf music, rockabilly and vintage R&B, led to it sharing bills with Johnny Cash, Link Wray and The Zombies. Tonight’s performance is a special two-guitar touring version of The Woggles featuring Shane Pringle (Bad Spell, Tiger! Tiger!) and Graham Day (The Prisoners, Solarflares).
