They usually play groups like the Doobie Bros, Eagles, just your rock hits of the 60's and 70's and even some Pink Floyd and Jimi Hendrix thrown in.

Musically they are very good band, two good guitarist and a third guitarist who also plays the synch on his guitar. Vocally they may lack on some songs in which case I would put the band Yesterdaze slightly ahead of them as my favorite here because they have excellent vocals. You can't go wrong with either band when they come to the square. Cactus Jack and the Cadillacs is my third favorite, who are probably a heavier version of Rocky and the Rollers.
Yesterdayze is BY FAR my favorite band in TV. I like Uncle Bobs alot, but my wife thinks they play, or are set up, too loudly (may have been the older gentlemans problem). Cactus Jacks is also very good, and all are better than Rocky and the Rollers in my opinion.
