‘Unleashed’ Canada Tour featuring The B34ST will visit Moose Jaw

On August 19, the ‘Unleashed’ Canada 2023 Tour will perform at The Silo featuring Puerto Vallarta’s most well-known rock band, The B34ST

For all the lovers of live rock music, The B34ST band from Puerto Vallarta will be performing their ‘Unleashed’ Canada 2023 Tour this August. Be sure to get your tickets well in advance for their stop in Moose Jaw.

On Saturday, August 19, The B34ST is scheduled to perform at The Silo, next to The Heritage Inn. Doors open at 6 p.m., and the show starts at 8 p.m. Happy Hour is on, and appetizers will be served until 9 p.m. during the concert.

“They (The B34ST) play Metallica and AC/DC, but they do play some lighter, more hip stuff. Their main thing is more rock to heavy rock,” said Phil Juric, friend of the band and owner of TranscenDENT Paintless Dent Repair.

A couple of talented local bands are also scheduled to perform an opener for The B34ST. “I tentatively have a couple

Aaron Walker - Moose Jaw Express / MooseJawToday.com whether they want to open… All it is (at this point) is a scheduling thing,” stated Juric, noting that plans are still underway.

At this year’s Minnedosa, Manitoba concert, Juric said The B34ST will attend with an interesting backstory. “They are invited to play at Minnedosa during their Rockin’ the Fields concert,” he said. He described Minnedosa as “a rock version of Craven.”

“L.A. Guns, Sebastian Bach, The Glorious Sons, Sloan, The Incredibly Hip, The Stoneheads, Daisy Chain, Crush, bands like that are all playing there (at Minnedosa),” Juric said.

The Minnedosa concert is scheduled for August 4 – 6.

“Last year the band played at Rosalind in Alberta, and the next night they played at Drumheller… down in the ravine, which was completely awesome. You’ve got all the layered rock and everything, the river running through — what a backdrop to the band playing!

“There’s a band called The Gecko time down in that valley. It was sort of an historic thing. It was epic… it was so much fun,” said Juric.

On August 11 – 13, this year’s Rosalind tour will see a convergence of seven bands originating from around Puerto Vallarta for a three-day music festival.

After proposing to his soon-to-be wife, Wario Hernandez Torres, the band’s lead singer, messaged Juric. Thinking he’d the wedding — Juric was instead asked to schedule a venue in or around Moose Jaw for the 2023 tour.

“So, that’s why I put this together and rented out The Silo at the Heritage Inn for them to play at,” Juric explained.

The B34ST played last year in Moose Jaw but drew a much smaller crowd due to short notice. “It was a last-minute booking. They had a cancellation, and they were coming through, and they played at Alex’s place at The Crushed Can,” said Juric.

Since the COVID-19 post-pandemic tour saw several tragedies, including Torres’ mom and three others passing away while on tour.

In memory of those who passed on, lead singer “(Torres) sang Hallelujah. If you heard this guy’s voice, it is so incredibly powerful. He dedicated this to his mom. Just thinking about him singing it just about chokes me up,” said Juric.

“The biggest complaint that I hear from everybody is the lack of live music in Moose Jaw after the Royal (Hotel) and the (Brunswick Hotel) closed down,” Juric added. “It would be nice for everybody to show a little bit of support… for live music in Moose Jaw. The more support (that is) shown, the more live bands will be inclined to come here.”
