Blues Traveler
Alice Cooper
Foghat
Kansas
Peter Frampton



And the Railroader's Museum should put on a bluegrass festival. My dream lineup:
The Steeldrivers
Infamous Stringdusters
Hillbilly Gypsies
Mama Corn
Sweetwater

They should give it some thought. We sold out 300 seats in a week with no advertising, just the Hillbilly Gypsies and Mama Corn. What could you do with an ad budget and some space?---->JMS

As others have said, it's tough to pick just five. But considering the quality of live performance (from those I've seen) and what would probably do well in this market, here are my picks:

Alice Cooper
Billy Squier
Kansas
.38 Special
Asia (personal preference here; I had to miss their concert in Harrisburg last year because I was selected for federal jury duty, but my jury assignment was cancelled at the last minute)

Since Alice Cooper airs weeknights on Rocky, he already has an elevated profile in this market. And his live show is excellent!

I could make arguments for Night Ranger, Peter Frampton, Pat Benatar and Grand Funk Railroad as well.

I'm glad to hear that concerts will continue to happen at the Railroaders Museum this year. Keep up the great work!

Jessies Girl

Post by Imgrimm01 »

Jessies Girl is Prob. Springfield's worst song, look into some of his other stuff.

Yeah, everybody knows Jesse's girl is pretty beat, but the guy wrote some really catchy pop songs. He was a musician for years before he got on American soap operas.
He's no Danny Romalotti, though. :lol: --->JMS

If it's Alice, the first question will be "Have you ever mic'd a guillotine?
