Coming up this week is Sublime sublime /sub·lime/ (sub-lim´) to volatilize a solid body by heat and then to collect it in a purified form as a solid or powder.  Remembered, featuring some of Sublime's original members.

``People are really liking the fact that '80s and '90s bands are coming back,'' said production coordinator Norma Cook. ``It's very rare to find that kind of (concert) up here in the A.V.''

Sublime Remembered will perform Friday with two bands opening for them at Mr. Cues, 2033 W. Ave. J. Doors will open at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $16 per person. Tickets can be purchased at the door or in advance.

Cook said the club is averaging a concert every three weeks. He hopes to continue booking bands from the '80s and '90s but has booked, and will book, bands from other genres he thinks will interest Antelope Valley residents.

Mr. Cues has been at its current location for 7 1/2 years and recently expanded its sound system to accommodate concerts.

``It's just been something we've always wanted to do,'' said Mr. Cues owner Joe Aliberto. ``We had the room.''

The hall in the past has hosted everything from punk punk

Aggressive form of rock music that coalesced into an international (though predominantly Anglo-American) movement in 1975–80. Originating in the countercultural rock of artists such as the Velvet Underground and Iggy (Pop) and the Stooges, punk rock evolved in
 to modern rock. The shows have drawn 150 to 500.

``People don't want to drive to Los Angeles and pay those high ticket prices when they can see the same bands here and pay reasonable prices,'' Cook said.
