Sunday, April 17 at Rogers Arena. Enormously popular over the course of many years, they play metal and resemble the cast of every horror movie ever made. They scare me.

Friday and Saturday, April 22 & 23 at Rogers Arena. Dave Chapelle is very funny and knows when to quit.

Monday, May 2 at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre. He cannot sing, he cannot dance and he thinks women should all have babies, but Jordan Peterson will no doubt be speaking to packed house. Question is will he bring the lobster?

July 8 & 9 at Holland Park. After being cancelled in 2020 and 2021 and hosting a short stint in Vancouver, FVDED in the Park will return to Surrey this summer.

Friday, September 2 at B.C. Place. When you rock that hard, it’s probably hard to go back and do a normal job which may explain why these artists still tour. They will be supported by Joan Jett & the Blackhearts and Poison.

RuPaul’s Drag Race WERQ the World Tour

Sunday, September 4 at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre. Four months after Jordan Peterson plays should be plenty of time to clean and decorate the theatre for the likes of RuPaul and her queens. Question is, will Vancouver queens bring sufficient pageantry and sass?

Friday, October 21 at the Doug Mitchell Thunderbird Sports Centre. He played UBC the last time he was here, and he will again. Rock’s Ego Death World Tour is his first world tour in five years.
