Lowest of the Low

After 17 years of ups and down, Canadian rock legends the Lowest of the Low have chosen Williamsville’s Club Infinity as the venue for their “final farewell performance,” which is incidentally the band’s first club show in three years. As Saturday’s (Dec. 8) show draws near, LOTL members Ron Hawkins, Stephen Stanley, David Alexander, Lawrence Nichols and Dylan Parker can look back on a long, illustrious career peppered with numerous awards, solid record sales and a reputation as one of their nation’s most popular rock bands. Their debut album, 1991’s Shakespeare My Butt, took the scene by storm, inspiring Chart Magazine to name it the Sixth Best Canadian Album of All Time. The most recent release, Sordid Fiction, serves as the group’s swan song—although they will presumably wow the crowd with a retrospective of all their classic material. Special guests are fellow Canadians the Marble Index and A Potter’s Field. Doors at Club Infinity open at 7pm.
