Wow! What a night of
honest-to-goodness rock n roll this will be! It is doubtful you will
ever see a line-up of this quality assembled again - especially in the
intimate Backroom of the Greystones. We are extremely proud of this
show. It just doesn't get better than this! Don't miss it!!
Oh! There's also a special bar-room blitz to welcome you to the venue
too! Expect southern-fried, soulful rocking from Sheffield heroes
Fargo Railroad Co. who'll be doing their
acoustic thing!
I mean please, we have pulled out all of the stops with this one!!

Dan Baird & Homemade Sin -
you may remember Dan, he was the lead singer with ’80’s roots
superstars The Georgia Satellites and the composer of “Keep Your Hands
To Yourself”. Every night in America, it is estimated that at least
eight bands will be covering that number. Not bad for a song that
celebrates it’s thirtieth birthday this year. Joining Dan is fellow ex
Satellite, drummer Mauro Magellan and founder member of Americana Hall
Of Fame Lifetime Achievement winners Jason And The Scorchers,
guitarist Warner E. Hodges. The line up is completed by Micke Nilsson
on bass.
Drivin’ n Cryin’ - Rolling Stone magazine says - Crunching hard rock
is the driving’ part, brittle countryish balladry the cryin’, with the
two linked by a heavy dose of Led Zeppelinphilia. If Paul Westerberg
had grown up worshipping Angus Young instead of Alex Chilton, the
Replacements might have sounded something like this Atlanta band.
68 - 75 - mixing Southern Soul swagger with British grit and
recapturing the vibrant energy and muscular gusto of that (1968 -
1975) era, with Physical Graffitti- era raucous rock. 68 -75 offer
straight ahead rock, laced with soulful, emotionally raw vocals. The
sound of this Atlanta, GA based quartet is based in ’70’s rock -
influenced by Free, Terry Reid, Humble Pie, Faces and Stone The Crows.
