<p>They burst on the scene in 1980 and never looked back. With smash hits like “Blood and Roses,” “Only a Memory,” “Behind the Wall of Sleep,” and “A Girl Like You,” <a href=”https://www.officialsmithereens.com”>The Smithereens</a> have cultivated an incredibly loyal fanbase, and they are coming to <a href=”https://www.ramsheadonstage.com/events/detail/774694″>Rams Head On Stage for one show on June 8th</a>!</p>
<p>We hopped on the phone with Dennis Diken, one of the founders (and the drummer) to talk about staying power for 4 years, what makes a Smithereens show so special, new projects, and tried to clear up a rumor from a 2012 Rams Head show! </p>
<p>Normally, I’d say “have a listen now, and then grab your best friend and get a pair of tickets!” But not today. Put this on pause, get the tickets first (they are selling out) and THEN come back and have a listen!</p>
