Austin's Black Angels Bring Back The 60s...Travis Tritt Plays Saturday Night at The Fair
6/12/2008
"Live in Fargo-Moorhead"
This is my heads up to the music fans of the region about which bands are playing where 6/12-6/18. If the city is not listed, assume it's Fargo...
---------------------------------
ROCK / METAL / PUNK:
----------------
Austin, TX band THE BLACK ANGELS will bring back the psychedelic 60s Tuesday (6/17) night at The Aquarium with THE WARLOCKS of L.A., also on the bill. BA's "Black Grease" conjures up a Ted Nugent "Stranglehold" vibe - for those of you old-timers out there like me. Interestingly enough, these two bands list each other as influences. Talk about a mutual admiration society...good stuff.
