Super Sometimes lands in The Stache on Feb. 17 as part of a Riley! bill

The San Diego pop-punk trio returns to The Intersection's 400-capacity side room on a Wednesday in February with Riley!, Leisure Hour and Shoreline.

February in Grand Rapids is when you need a reason to leave the house. Here's one. Super Sometimes, the San Diego pop-punk trio, has added a date at The Stache at The Intersection on Wednesday, Feb. 17, 2027. Doors are at 6 p.m. and the music starts at 7, according to the venue's ticketing page on SectionLive.

One thing to know before you buy: this is a package bill. SectionLive lists the night under Riley!, with Super Sometimes on the lineup alongside Leisure Hour and Shoreline. So it's four bands for one ticket on a school night, and if Super Sometimes is your reason for going, get there close to the 7 o'clock start rather than strolling in at nine. Tickets are on sectionlive.com; the date was announced Oct. 22.

Who are they? Super Sometimes are on Pure Noise Records, the label behind a lot of the louder, catchier end of modern punk, and they've spent the past year building momentum. They've released a new album, *Show the World What's Underneath* (Scene Music Media), and kept a steady drip of singles coming, including "Make Up Stories" (Forever Loud) and "Afterthought" (Heavy). In 2026 they went out supporting Arm's Length on a North American run, and landed Vans Warped Tour dates in Washington, D.C., and Orlando — the kind of year that tends to show up in how a crowd sings back.

Four bands, one Wednesday, a 400-person room

Why this room? The Stache holds about 400. That's the sweet spot for this kind of show: big enough that a pop-punk bill feels like an event, small enough that you can see the drummer's face from the back.

It's also a good reminder of how bills like this work. A lot of the bands you end up loving, you first hear as the second act on somebody else's night. If you're going for Super Sometimes, stay for whoever's next. If you're going for Riley!, come early and catch the trio from San Diego.

Practical stuff: it's a Wednesday in mid-February in West Michigan, so check the weather before you leave and give yourself a few extra minutes for parking downtown. With four bands and a 7 p.m. start, the night should wrap at a reasonable hour.

Mark the date. It'll be cold outside and loud inside, which is the best version of a Grand Rapids winter.
