Most dates will feature an opening 40 minute film of Charles Gocher's video experiments followed by two sets of music. AB and RB will be performing Sun City Girls songs as an acoustic guitar duet. This tour will most likely be the only time this show will be presented as such and is a tribute both to Charles Gocher and selected music from the 27 year legacy of Sun City Girls.

Basically the tour was inspired by all of our friends around the country who had wanted to either come to the memorial in Seattle (and could not due to last minute arrangements/expenses) after Charles passed away or had inquired about doing their own memorials and so we promised to do something which honored Charles and the legacy of SCG since the band no longer exists as current and is gone forever. We will show a 40 minute film collage of Charlie's visual artifacts and then perform 2 sets of SCG songs featuring 2 acoustic guitars and vocals.

One set will focus a bit more on Charlie's material than the other which will feature much of our international-inspired material from records like 'Torch of the Mystics' and '330,003 Crossdressers...'. Several of which we have not performed live for a very long time.

Opening are Portland's own beloved Fire On Fire.
