Suspect they are making a lot more there than they do here so wonder if they will comeback.

Will give Uncle Bob a shot.

Update from Dee: We're not going to take it! :a20:

These Clowns played the Nightclub circuit in Morris County and North and West N.J. when I was a youngin. They really got the party started. It was nuts! :jester:

the closest to that imo would be Penta. they do VanHalen, Molly Hatchett & some Foreigner. the Hooligans are probably working other jobs. i remember the lead singer saying the drummer works in Orlando/Disney, & he himself (Curt) is in LA Guns. could be they are on tour, idk

The Hooligans have had that long term gig for many years. They generally try to play in The Villages at least once a month. I saw them twice over the summer, so they're still around.

You can find these two bands on the square and they do a pretty good job of hitting more of the hard music you may be after. Blue Stone Circle is one and the other is Uncle Bob's Rock Shop.

I wish more of the bands would play AC/DC, Led Zepplin, Def Leppard, etc. I would think that there are others that would like to hear more harder rock.

The average age in the villages is about 70 and at least according to the folks who book the entertainment, those folks want to listen to music that was made when they were toddlers.
why wouldn't they? It's their party and they'll cry if they want to.

Hooligans, Penta, Spazmatics. Penta playing highway star by Deep purple. Thought I was at the Baltimore Civic Center in 1973 again.

We definitely need more bands that play good rock n roll.

I must be a real dinosaur

I like listening to music that was popular when I wasn't even a twinkle in my father's eyes. Gimme, Sinatra, Dean Martin, Tony Bennett, Sammy Davis and The Great American Songbook. I also like jazz but it's few a far between here.

Agreed with others and have seen that not everyone defines the term “classic rock” or “hard rock” the same. The Hooligans are #1 in my view followed by Penta- don’t let anyone tell you bands like Blonde Ambition are “classic rock”! Lol

Blue Stone Circle is more pop than heavy.

Absolute Queen is going to be at Savannah Center next week. Great rock band!!8

I imagine the music will change as the years roll on and the demographic changes, just a matter of time.

They are wrong! Some of us actually like up to date music!
