Twenty years have passed since Me First and the Gimme Gimmes ruined Johnny's Bar Mitzvah, and punk rock's premier cover band is back to wreak havoc on another important coming-of-age ceremony. This time, as the album title reveals, it was a Quinceaera. Nobody attending had ever heard of Me First and The Gimme Gimmes, and nobody knew what to expect. Recorded on July 15th, 2023, at The Soap Factory in San Diego, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes were completed by Joey Cape on guitar, CJ Ramone on bass, Swami John Reis on guitar, and Andrew "Pinch" Pinching on drums-a veritable punk rock supergroup, as ever, not that anyone at the Quinceaera knew or cared. However, they also had a wind section for the first time, courtesy of Keith Douglas and Jason Crane. Swami John Reis' father, John Reis Sr. even played accordion on the penultimate song, "Before the Next Teardrop Falls." It all comes together to create a performance that rises (even as it's sinking) to the occasion in BLOW IT.AT MADISONS QUINCEANERA!
