About this Event

The Ex-Bombers celebrate our 15th year as a band with the bash to end all bashes on Saturday, Nov. 22 in Springfield, IL at Buzz Bomb Brewing.Somehow in the last 15 years this fabulous rock n roll duo has become a cult-favorite live act, been played on 400+ radio stations, put out nine vinyl releases, and recorded theme songs for some of the coolest stuff on the planet (“Jim Cornette Experience,” “24/7 Demon Mart,” Jeremiah Plunkett, MCPW and more!).In this time, we’ve also met some of the coolest people in the world that you may have heard us talk about (ex: The Table, our wild Chicago and Springfield friends, friends from Free Music Friday, and so many more). On November 22, our goal is to put on the coolest one-night-only event, and have all of our friends meet each! Let us sell you on coming to Springfield for The Ex-Bombers 15th Band Anniversary Bash:* For the first and only time, The Ex-Bombers will be playing our second album “Five Star Night” in its entirety! It was released 10 years ago and for one and only time, we’re making it a Five Star night!
* We are releasing a cassingle (!) of “Firebird Woman” and “At the Demon Mart” (with Claymation Kevin on the cover from the now notorious lost “Firebird Woman” music video!). There will only be 10 available in the world!
* New shot glasses! For the first time in 5 years, The Ex-Bombers have new a shot glass and it has the awesome cartoon from “He’s a Bad, Bad Man!” Also, because Buzz Bomb rules, they are doing “Five Star Flights: with four house-brewed beers and a shot. They have fun and you will too.
* A contest to draw our next sticker! After a Five Star Flight, you might feel the need to draw, and that night (and that night only) The Ex-Bombers are having a competition to draw their next sticker! You can enter as many times as you like that night and the winner gets a free sticker subscription!It all happens in Springfield, IL at Buzz Bomb Brewing on Saturday, November 22 from 7-10 p.m. There’s no cover charge, and under 21 people and well-behaved dogs can attend as well. We would love to see you at this one and introduce you to everyone and have one of those nights we all never forget!!
And, if enough of you let us know you’re coming to Springfield, we’ll stay overnight and hang out until Buzz Bomb closes, go wherever the bartenders suggest afterwards, and end the night eating fries somewhere! Join us!!
