- **Event Name**: Ferdy's 55th Birthday Party! 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 04 Apr, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Sun, 05 Apr, 2026 at 01:00 am (-06:00)
- **Event Description**: Cranbrook BC's feisty impresario Ferdy Belland now gets to order off the cheapo menu at Denny's as he hits the big 55! He may be a little greyer these days, and his beard is approaching Tolkieneqsue lengths, but his drive and enthusiasm remains as bright as ever. And as usual he's celebrating by cramming as many bands he plays in onto the same show (and the Honeymans too)! 

GARUDA: 
East Meets West, and we're not just talking the dual Kootenay Regions here - Nelson BC's Steven Pierson wields his sitar (yes, a real Indian sitar) in thrilling Psychedelic Rock fashion, with the spastic jackhammering of Creston BC's Jason Deatherage on drums and the Birthday Boy on 7-string hybrid bass. You have to see Garuda to believe Garuda, and they've proven themselves onstage time and again as opening support for such varied artists as Brass Camel, DOA, and Osyron.

BROTHERHOOD OF LOST SOULS:
Cranbrook BC's hard-rocking hooligan heroes, keeping it real on the strings of steel with gutter anthems of broken hearts, broken dreams, broken bones, and broken glass. "Pistol Pete" Durning (lead vocals), Roy "Whiskey Phoenix" Wilgan (lead guitar), Morgan  "Sasquatch" Fraser (drums), and Dirty Ferdy (bass) all blast in out in the finest Supersuckers / Hellacopters / Turbonegro / Nashville Pussy / Zeke / Danko Jones fashion.

PHAETON:
All-instrumental prog-metal guaranteed to make your eyes bug out of your head and your draw drop in astonishment as their swirling, driving interstellar anthems whisk you off into interdimensional realms undreamed of. Daniel Airth (lead guitar), Kevin Thiessen (guitar, keyboards), Colin Righton (drums), and - you guessed it - Ferdy Belland on bass. Phaeton have shared stages with ANCIIENTS, Bison, Beyond Creation, Vaegon, Kelevra, and Atavistia, and have not only performed the mainstage at the Loud As Hell Festival but have been featured not once but twice in the UK's prestigious Prog Magazine. A sight and sound to behold.

THE HONEYMANS:
Kimberley BC's ska-punk legends, combining elements of Rancid, Sublime, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and NoMeansNo into a sound all their own that's dazzled audiences from Cranbrook to Cancun since 1998. Kevin Honeyman (lead vocals, lead guitar), Mike Honeyman (bass, vocals), and Ben Dunn (drums, vocals) are rounding off the night with a ripping set of boogie-shoes electricity, thus allowing Ferdy to finally put his bass down for the night and get shittered with the rest of us.
