The Exploited brings their raw, uncompromising punk energy to the gritty confines of Backstage Bar & Billiards. This Scottish punk band has been a cornerstone of the hardcore punk scene since the late '70s, known for their aggressive sound, anti-establishment anthems, and the distinctive mohawk of longtime frontman Wattie Buchan. Their music hits hard with politically charged lyrics and a sound that's never softened over the decades.

Backstage Bar & Billiards provides the perfect setting for this show – an intimate rock 'n' roll venue in the Fremont East District where the music stays loud and the atmosphere stays real. The downtown spot's no-frills approach matches The Exploited's aesthetic perfectly, with pool tables, a full bar, and a stage that puts you right up close to the action. Expect a sweaty, high-energy night of classic punk anthems mixed with their newer material, all delivered with the same ferocity the band's been known for across five decades.
