Height Requirement ('80s Forever!)

The '80s party machine that is Height Requirement return for an almost-Valentines-Day date at The Carleton on Friday, February 6th. The dancing (and there will be dancing) action starts at 8 PM and tickets are $20 + HST.  This is a standing room show with limited seating with arrival by 7 PM - please email reservations@thecarleton.ca to confirm availability. Known for their high energy and feel good vibes, Height Requirement has been bringing their 80s party machine to Nova Scotia for over 10 years, leaving a trail of neon nostalgia and the smell of hair spray in their wake. Vocalists Jeff Douglas (host of Mainstreet, CBC Radio) and Jade Bennett (Kjipuktuk/Halifax-based artist) deliver those 80s hits with the power and emotion required to transport you right back to that decade of excess. Instrumentalists Peter Davison (guitar), Robert Luer (keyboards), Dale Roode (bass) and Jim Davison (drums) re-create that throw back sound to make you think you’re dancing to your favourite cassette tape. Fun facts: Height Requirement got their name during early rehearsals in a basement with a 6ft ceiling. Jeff and the Davison brothers were in a band in the 80s called Eight Feet Under.
