Columbus Alive: Debauched rockers Barbed Wire Dolls reform for one night to pay tribute to fallen drummer

Back in 2012, the Barbed Wire Dolls got together for a rare reunion show, as previewed by the Columbus Alive:

“Coming into [the group] we were already steeped in trouble,” said singer Johnny Weills, who will join bandmates Joe Maple (bass) and Jeffery Alan Dutton (guitar), along with drummer Zach Shriner stepping in for the late Johnny Bernardo, for a one-off reunion show at Ace of Cups on Friday, Oct. 23. “All of us drank heavily and imbibed other substances heavily. And aside from the whole intoxication element of it, we were always the guys that would go out and start trouble. A lot of it was intended to be good-hearted mischief, but it didn’t always end up that way. There were a lot of people in town who were like, ‘Man those guys are fucking scary.’”
