Handsome Dick Manitoba, iconic punk rocker and former frontman of The Dictators, is set to storm Texas with a series of electrifying performances. Highlighting the Texas leg of his tour, Manitoba promises to deliver a relentless barrage of punk classics alongside new hits, ensuring an unforgettable experience for fans across the Lone Star State. With a tenure as the lead singer of The Dictators from 1974 to 2008, Manitoba’s influence on the punk scene is immeasurable. For over 40 years he was the lead singer, frontman and face of The Dictators, Manitoba’s Wild Kingdom and The Dictators NYC. He did stints on the road singing with the legendary MC5, ran his own New York City tavern (Manitoba’s) for 20 years and did a national five night a week rock ‘n’ roll radio program on SiriusXM satellite radio.
Despite parting ways with his longtime bandmates, Manitoba remains as formidable as ever, embodying the spirit of punk with every performance. In his own words, “I haven’t had enough yet. I WANT MORE!” As Manitoba hits the road once again, fans can expect a high-octane spectacle that pays homage to the rich history of punk rock while forging new paths of sonic exploration. Accompanied by an exceptional band hailing from San Francisco, featuring Craig Behrhorst (Ruffians / Two Bit Thief), Michael Butler (Exodus / JetBoy), Alex Kane (Life, Sex & Death / Marky Ramone’s Blitzkrieg) and Scotty Slam (Circus of Power / The Stoning), Manitoba promises to deliver pure punk energy to Texas.
