Change...it happens all the time, sometimes rather quickly. This time it's with local rockers Hellwagon. When I blogged them last, it was cold outside. Different playlist now and pared down to a foursome. Nothing wrong with tweeking your performance, and as I am finding out, expect the unexpected from these guys, but still raising a little Hellwagon! *smile* So, where do I start? There's so much here...and yet, I need to leave a little mystery for the club-goers so that you don't go in knowing it all. Can't have that, now can we?
Of course, you're gonna get KISS-ed from these guys...a little 'Love Gun' to start this evening on the South side of Indy. Then just on and on....Stone Temple Pilots (Sex Type Thing), Nazareth (Hair of the Dog), Alice In Chains (Man In The Box), Judas Priest (You've Got Another Thing Coming), The Charlie Daniels Band (Long Haired Country Boy), Billy Idol (Rebel Yell, White Wedding), Motley Crue (Helter Skelter), Guns N' Roses (Mr. Brownstone), Buckcherry (Crazy Bitch), War (Low Rider), Ozzy Osbourne (Bark At The Moon), Beastie Boys ((You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party)), Twisted Sister (I Wanna Rock), and AC/DC (You Shook Me All Night Long). These are the predictable ones.
So, the highway to Hellwagon is paved with rock, r-o-c-k, rock, but let me tell you...you haven't heard Journey this way until you've heard it Hellwagoned (is that a word?) *smile* Once you catch this, you'll be believin'! Now, keeping me on my toes, is that 'Grease'? What? Really, Tony? What band sings that anyway? *smile* Moving through with the surprising tunes, Simple Minds (Don't You (Forget About Me)), Gwen Stefani (Keep On Dancin'), Cameo (Word Up), Rick Springfield (Jessie's Girl), and even some Duran Duran....ha! I won't give that one away! Also included in the night's line up, Poison, Commodores, Cheap Trick and many others. My song pick of the night was *drum roll please*...Poison (Every Rose Has Its Thorn).
So, the 'blumpkin' issue came up again. I thought this was put to rest, however, this time it appears perhaps some peeps disappeared! I don't know, maybe it's not just an urban legend! The moral of this blog is, if you're gonna fall off the wagon, make it the Hellwagon! Rawk on, guys!
