John Doe to Perform National Anthem at Roller Derby Bout

(PR) Beware the quads of March when the L.A. Derby Dolls, Southern California's premiere banked track roller derby league, unleash the Swarm on the 2006 champions Fight Crew on Saturday, March 28 at the Doll Factory (1910 Temple St., 90026). The event will also feature famed Los Angeles actor and singer/bassist of seminal punk band X, John Doe, as he sings the National Anthem.

After a sold-out debut bout with the Varsity Brawlers in February, the Swarm schooled the Brawlers with a resounding victory featuring an astounding 30-point scoring half by jammer extraordinaire Sarkastika (aka Steely Jan). The Fight Crew started their 2009 with a heart-breaking loss to 2008 champions, the Tough Cookies, but showed a return to their fight or flight form that won them a previous championship and had fans chanting ?better red than dead.?

Tickets are now available to purchase at http://www.derbydolls.com/la. General admission tickets are $17 online and $20.00 at the door; VIP tickets are $40.00. The Doll Factory is located at 1910 Temple St., Los Angeles, CA 90026 (between Alvarado and Union). Doors open at 6:00 p.m. and general parking is available for $8 at Silver Lake Medical Center, 1711 West Temple (near the intersection of Temple and Union), one block east of the Doll Factory. This is a 21 and over event, featuring beer and wine. Please have your ID, and note that all concessions and most vendors accept cash only.
