Teenage Love goodness coming your way!

without comments

Got plans for Saturday night, Jan. 9? If you love the rock ‘n’ roll — specifically, the sneering sleaze of old-school punk — then you do now. A date at The Pilot Light, 106 E. Jackson Ave. in Knoxville’s Old City, to be exact, when local band Teenage Love13 will celebrate 25 years of debauchery.

The band’s most recent album — “No Excuses,” released earlier this year — wound up on our year-end best-of list. About it, we said: “(Frontman) Rus Harper and his ’80s punk-rock bandmates may never be able to outrun the cops like they could 20 years ago, but they can still musically stick it to the man with all the sneering contempt of kids half their age. Listen and learn, punks.”
