What should we do with our favourite songs of the past that may be controversial today? Join us for Sticky Lyrics, a panel discussion designed to delve into this question while focusing on notable bands like The Rolling Stones. Music historian and broadcaster, Alan Cross, will moderate this event as the panelists discuss what makes some lyrics of the past controversial today and how we might address these concerns going forward.
This event will be happening at The Conrad Centre for Performing Arts – 36 King St W, Kitchener, ON N2G 1A3 (directly beside THEMUSEUM).
Tickets will be $15 and include free admission to see the Ronnie Wood Art Exhibition.
