THE INTERNATIONAL HIT SHOW THAT CAPTURES THE MUSIC, POLITICS, AND CULTURE OF THE 70s, 80s, AND 90s!

BOOM X picks up at Woodstock in August of ‘69, and takes us all the way to 1995, when the internet began to dominate our lives. Over the course of 100 minutes, Rick Miller plays over 100 colourful characters from the days of disco, the oil crisis, Watergate, the Cold War, video games, punk rock, the (second) British Invasion, and more. An explosive, inter-generational celebration of Canada, and its place in the world.
