I see quite a few Rock Bands listed for live music at TV but the ones I've read up on all seem to be 60's and 70's with more of a Pop or mellow flavor. Just wondering if anyone knows of any bands here that play a harder version from the 70's icons? Thanks

Oh my god Are you trying to wake the dead.
A while back someone heard what they thought might be rap on local radio station. that discussion went for days eventually turning into dog poop stories.

Even though I like all the Bands you mentioned there Mr or Mrs OP I do think it's illegal to listen to any of them within the boundaries of The Villages. I'm almost certain everyone sign something at closing to that effect.

The song reminds me of a great previous poster. John W. Not because he was like the Joker but because he gave me the name of this great song. Miss you John.

The Villages musical entertainment is mired in the 50's & 60's.

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.

There are bands that play later day music in the squares, watch the Sun for description of what bands are playing each night.

The Hooligans are likely the closest you will get to those bands. They do several AC/DC songs, and do them very well. Best band in The Villages for my listening tastes. Blue Stone Circle is another good band as well.

The hooligans have not been playing in the squares for awhile now. Sorry they are not here as they are the best band since we have been here.

The Hooligans alter ego, the Spazmatics are okay too. They at least get us up into the 80’s. lol

I really like Blue Stone Circle. They do a great variety of what us 60's/70's kids used to call garden variety Rock and Roll.

I've only been here since December 2021 and I've seen the hooligans several times and there other 2 bands as well

I'd like to so see more bands play the heavier music also. This just in: Twisted Sister has decided they are going to take it!

The Hooligans have a long term gig at EPCOT. Hope it is not TOO long.

Uncle Bob's Rock Shop seems the closest to what we like. We would go an see all of the bands suggested. Thank You for your replies
