Rough Trade | Weapons [4K] | Classic Bowl, Mississauga 05/25/2023

Classic Bowl - Mississauga, ON hosted Rough Trade Live 2023 as part of the 6th Annual McBowl Concert Series on 05/25/2023.

'Weapons' was released in 1983 on the 'Weapons' Album in front of a sold-out crowd.

Rough Trade (1968–1988) was a Canadian rock band centred on singer Carole Pope and multi-instrumentalist Kevan Staples. The band was noted for their provocative lyrics and stage antics; singer Pope often performed in bondage attire, and their 1981 hit "High School Confidential" was one of the first explicitly lesbian-themed Top 40 hits in the world.

That thumbnail is widely misleading. 😂😂😂

Ah, Carol Pope. Man, I was a high school student in Ontario back in the 80s when they were sizzling hot. I happened to win tickets from the local radio station to see rough trade in concert. God damn that was a fun night I will never forget! I had all of their albums back in the day, and knew the lyrics to most of their songs.
