UBRS is my favorite. :)

Rocky and the Rollers. Cactus Jack and the Cadillacs, and the Caribbean band (can't recall the rest of the name)

One thing about Rocky, you could record it once and play it over and over and over. Same ol' junk every time!

Rocky and the Rollers will get the most votes, and if you don't believe that look at the LSL webcam tomorrow (Tue) at about 6pm. Second would be Uncle Bob's Rock Shop (UBRS) as on their t-shirts. Personally we've seen Uncle Bob about 35 times and Rocky about ten times.

We also like Petrina, who is at Brownwood tomorrow and we're going to see her since it's been about a year and Rocky only a couple of months. She's British and sings contemporary hits but puts on a nice show. We also like Cactus Jack and the Cadillacs. They perform psych-rock hits of the late 60's, some one hit artist and the mainstream hits. Uncle Bob does a Beatles medley and then mostly 70's rock featuring the Eagles, Tom Petty and a little Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin thrown in. We also like Caribbean Chillers, they're a Jimmy Buffet type band, Yesterdayze which is a 60's psych-rock band but don't perfom here as much anymore since they are out of St. Petersburg. A lot of people like Clark Barrios, he has about 5 or 7 bands with various backing and lineups, he focuses on Frank Sinatra to pop oldies to hits, he has a nice voice but is a little too mellow for me.

Here's a photo of Uncle Bob at Brownwood, you can see they are a five piece band and rack of guitars in the background. The guitarist on the left also plays keyboards, but does so on his guitar, very unique.

Motown and More that features Rick Melvern. Did a Stevie Wonder impersonation and knocked it out of the park. Rick has a great voice!!!

"Vinyl Recall" really rocks with DougB, PammyJ and Dr. Winston O. Boogie!!!

A unique perspective indeed. There is even a cruise featuring Rocky that is usually sold out well in advance.

Kathleen Kane and the 007 Band, she is a great performer!

Doro22 10-26-2015 06:31 PM

Rocky, yes! And Scooter!

Junk? These are extremely talented men. They have performed with over 300 well known artists. You have every right to your opinion, but to say junk.... stay home.

All of the bands mentioned are very good and puts on good shows. The carribean band is the Carribean Chillers. They are a Buffet cover band, but Jason Webb will work in several of his original songs into the shows. Good stuff!

goldseekur 10-27-2015 06:50 AM

We really enjoy Suzie Casta. She goes non stop when she is on the stage. Her range of songs is amazing. Always a lot of fun.

Bonny 10-27-2015 11:01 AM

Second Slice is also a great band. The the lead singer is Mark Seymour and he plays the keyboard. He plays a lot by himself at both Codys.

Another vote here for Vinyl Recall. And let's not forget Roy and the Famous Wayne! And that brings us to the Real Deal Band!

Scooter the DJ is the best. He gets everyone involved.

I believe you are thinking of the Carribean Chillers. Great music.
