7TH GEAR @ 4D’S LOUNGE, ALTOONA 10/1/08
Up for some Wednesday night live music, I headed to the upstairs 4D’s Lounge to check in with 7th Gear.
A good-sized crowd was already present when I arrived, procured my first Genny and a strategic table vantage point at the front of the upper level. The feisty trio of singer/guitarist Brendon Burns, bassist/singer Kelly Montgomery and drummer/singer Randy Servello had just started into their second set, and were mixing up various rock/pop favorites with a few original tunes. In between such numbers as Modern English’s “Melt with You,” a playful rocking take on Britney’s “Baby One More Time,” Tom Petty’s “Mary Jane’s Last Dance” and Phish’s “Down with Disease,” 7th Gear broke out at least one original tune, “Stay,” highlighted by an excellent guitar solo from Brendon. The group did a few other tunes I didn’t readily recognize; I assume they were probably originals as well.
7th Gear’s nightcap set opened with a special guest, as Erika Marino stepped up to the mic to belt out her fiery voice on renditions of 4 Non Blondes’ “What’s Up,” Janis Joplin’s “Me and Bobby McGee” and Alanis Morisette’s “You Oughta Know,” all to the delight of the cheering Dees crowd. Kelly then sang lead on Jimi Hendrix’s “Fire,” and Brendon fronted 7th Gear on Billy Squier’s “Everybody Wants You” and a rocking take on REO Speedwagon’s “Take It on the Run,” as more and more dancers populated the floor in front of the stage area. Erika returned to sing backing vocals alongside Kelly’s lead voice on Blues Traveler’s “Runaround;” before Randy sang soulful lead voice from behind the kit on Stevie Wonder’s “Superstition.” The party continued to ride at a high as the group did numbers from Gin Blossoms, the Beatles, Doobie Brothers, James, and finally, Bob Marley’s “No Woman No Cry” to end the night.
As is usually the case, 7th Gear sounded tight and together on their instruments, and each of these guys sounded good on the vocal front as well. Their overall energy level rode at a steady high, and the Dees crowd clearly enjoyed it, dancing and remaining festive for the duration.
7th Gear has evolved into the Altoona music scene’s cure for midweek boredom, and their Wednesday night party seems to be getting bigger and better every week!

COUSIN MIKE @ THE BELMAR HOTEL, ALTOONA 10/2/08
After finishing up some duties at my new radio employer, I headed to the Belmar Hotel to catch one of Rock & Rye’s weekly Thursday performances. But upon arriving, I discovered that the duo was not performing this night; and the acoustic sounds this night were being provided by Cousin Mike.
Mike Weiland offered a sturdy voice over the two sets I witnessed, as he did a wide range of classics. During this initial set I observed, Mike did acoustic renditions of tunes from the animals, Men at Work, Jimmy Buffett, Tom Petty, Neil Young, CCR, Bob Marley and more. Highlights during this set included his pairing of Sam Cooke’s “Another Saturday Night” with Van Morrison’s “Brown Eyed Girl,” and his Dave Matthews-styled take on Bob Dylan’s “All Along the Watchtower.”
Although the Belmar wasn’t packed, there were at least some people in the house, and they seemed to appreciate Mike’s performance in lieu of what they were usually used to hearing on Thursday nights.
Cousin Mike’s nightcap set kicked off with Whitesnake’s “Here I Go Again,” and continued with tunes from Bon Jovi, Tears for Fears, Crosby Stills & Nash, Kiss, Poison, Cat Stevens, Steve Goodman, John Mellencamp, Bob Seger, Peter Paul & Mary and more. Some of Mike’s more noteworthy songs during this set included renditions of the traditional folk number “Erie Canal,” Soul Asylum’s “Runaway Train” and the night-ending version of Harry Belafonte’s “Kingston Town.”
Mike’s style was low-key, relaxed and laid-back. His voice was solid and steady, and his guitar strumming was rhythmic and ever-present. It was a good, basic performance, which drew polite cheers and applause from the Belmar patrons along the way.

Cousin Mike, entertaining at the Belmar.

Again, Cousin Mike.
CLAY BOWSER @ CRESSON HERITAGE DAYS, CRESSON 10/3/08
I was finishing up my monthly Pennsylvania Musician paper boy duty this day, delivering my Clearfield/Cambria County route. I always start this route out by journeying to Osceola Mills to deliver at the Osceola Hotel, and then work my way westward through magazine drop-off stops in Houtzdale, Coalport, Patton, Hastings, Northern Cambria, Loretto, Ebensburg, South Fork, Portage, Cresson and Gallitzin, before returning to Altoona. Knowing that Cresson Heritage Days was kicking off this evening, I adjusted that schedule to get my Gallitzin stop out of the way, so I could backtrack to Cresson, deliver to my stops there, and then kick back and relax for a little while as this festival got under way.
As I carried my last magazine loads down the sidewalk to Magoo’s, Trackside and Vito’s Pizza, I was greeted by Trace “Chicksinga” Baker and her entourage, who had already procured a picnic table at one of the Heritage Days seating areas where the hobo dinner and campfire were taking place. After I dropped off my last magazines, I returned to join them for some pizza (Thanks Trace!) and acoustic rural sounds by Clay Bowser.
Clay performed mostly country and folk-rock favorites over his two sets. He kicked off his first set with Vern Gosdin’s “Who Are You Gonna Blame It On This Time,” and along the way performed such numbers as George Jones’ “The Race Is On,” another Vern Gosdin number, “This Ain’t My First Rodeo,” Alan Jackson’s “Little Bitty,” Roger Miller’s “King of the Road,” the Bee Gees’ “To Love Somebody” and more. I missed a few song titles along the course of this initial set, as I was engaged in conversation and pizza.

Again, Clay Bowser.

Once again, Clay Bowser.
During Clay’s break between sets, the official kickoff ceremony for Heritage Days was held. Several costumed folks, dressed as Admiral Robert Peary, Matthew Henson (Peary and Henson co-discovered the North Pole), as well as several Cresson V.I.P.’s, made their way to the microphone to present opening announcements and make a plaque dedication. A good-sized crowd of locals was in attendance, enjoying the pleasant early autumn weather, music, food and refreshments.

Again, the historic gathering at Heritage Days.
Clay Bowser soon got back up to perform his second and final set. Clay must obviously be a Vern Gosdin fan, as he opened this set with yet another Gosdin number, “You Don’t Know About Lonely.” This set featured renditions of John Denver’s “Take Me Home Country Roads,” George Jones’ “He Stopped Loving Her Today,” Jimmy Buffett’s “Some Beach Somewhere,” Waylon Jennings’ “Brown Eyed Handsome Man,” “Man of Constant Sorrow,” Ferlin Husky’s “Gone” and more.
Clay sang it all with a clear and expressive voice that showed good range and versatility. His performance was confident, and he occasionally strolled out into the crowd to bring the music directly to them. Clay’s performance was well received, and provided a nice rural musical backdrop to this hometown festival.

Again, Clay Bowser and an appreciative fan.
JEFF MARKS @ THE U.S. HOTEL, HOLLIDAYSBURG 10/3/08
From Heritage Days, I descended the mountain to Hollidaysburg to see Pittsburgh’s Jeff Marks perform at the U.S. Hotel. It had been a little while since I last saw Jeff perform (either with Drew Bentley in J.D. Strum or with Lori Bernish at Pittsburgh’s Hard Rock Café a few years ago, I forget which).
I arrived during Jeff’s first set, ordering up my first brew as Jeff did a nice version of Peter Gabriel’s “In Your Eyes.” After doing his own original tune “Muddy Shoes,” Jeff finished out the set with a Bob Marley tune and Bruce Springsteen’s “Thunder Road.”
During the intermission, Jeff came over to talk with me, informing me that J.D. Strum had split apart last year, and Jeff was continuing on as a solo artist, working on new song material, and hoping to record a new CD within the year.
Jeff soon returned for his nightcap set, kicking off with Incubus’ “Drive.” This set featured more favorites and original songs. Jeff did such original tunes as “Wander,” “The Drag” AND “I Can’t Help It;” as well as acoustic renditions of Fuel’s “Shimmer,” Radiohead’s “Creep,” James Taylor’s “Carolina on My Mind,” Tom Petty’s “Free Fallin,’” his own unique cover spin on Madonna’s “Borderline” and more.
Jeff performed his material with a smooth, consistent voice and delivery. His guitar work was likewise smooth and solid; ever-present and never too fancy or frilly. It was a nice fit for the U.S. Hotel, and the audience politely cheered their approval through the course of the performance.
It was good to see Jeff playing in this neck of the woods again, and hopefully it won’t be too long a wait before he makes his next area visit.

Again, Jeff Marks.

One more time, Jeff Marks.
MY FRIEND FRANKIE @ 4D’S LOUNGE, ALTOONA 10/3/08
With Jeff Marks wrapping up his performance around midnight, I had enough time left to make this Friday night a live music tripleheader. I capped the night by heading to Altoona’s 4D’s Lounge to catch my first look at the updated roster of My Friend Frankie.
I arrived as the group was beginning their final set. A respectable-sized contingent of revelers was in the house, including representatives from the Bad Daze, Slacker Theory and All The Hype organizations.
New singer and bassist Candi, guitarist/singer Mike Fox and drummer Eric Wertz started off the nightcap set with The Ataris’/Don Henley’s “Boys of Summer,” and triggered some dance floor action with hits from Tommy Tutone, Divinyls, Blink 182, Beastie Boys, Lita Ford, Johnny Cash, Outfield, Joan Jett and more. At the end of the set, the dance floor crowd wanted more, and the group responded with Soft Cell’s “Tainted Love.”
Candi showed a decent singing voice and abundant enthusiasm, and seemed to fit into this new band situation comfortably. She, Mike and Eric kept the music and energy level constant, generating a continuous rock party atmosphere with the dance floor participants. At least based on this initial display, My Friend Frankie hasn’t lost any momentum with the transition, and they appear likely to evolve into an area party band favorite in the coming months.

Fans cheer on the new look My Friend Frankie.

BEDFORD FALL FOLIAGE FESTIVAL, BEDFORD 10/4/08
I had this date circled on my calendar for a few months. It was the first day of the two-weekend Bedford Fall Foliage Festival, and the music slate this day was a Pittsburgh blues smorgasbord. Three of the ‘Burgh’s best practitioners of the blues arts – Angel Blue & the Prophets, The Jimmy Adler Band and Norman Nardini – would bring their sounds to downtown Bedford.
Initially, I thought I would be able to take in all three of these acts, but it didn’t quite turn out that way. First, Angel Blue & the Prophets were performing from 10 AM to 12 noon. A late night of bandwatching the night before, combined with the drive to the Bedford Fairgrounds parking area and awaiting the shuttle bus ride over to the Festival, resulted in my arriving too late to see their performance at the downtown gazebo stage. So I stayed on the bus and instead stepped off at the river stage area, where Jimmy Adler and his band were just ready to commence the second of their two sets.
The sky was overcast and there was still fog in the vicinity as Jimmy and his band started their set. Jimmy and his band offered a crisp selection of traditional blues, swing and jump blues to the audience of music fans and passers-by. Jimmy, Mike Sweeney on bass, Eric Spaulding on sax and Kenny Crisafio on drums did selections from Jimmy’s new CD Swing It Around such as “Saturday Nite Social Affair” and a request for “Get Outa My Kitchen.” They also did such selections as T-Bone Walker’s “T-Bone Shuffle,” “Caledonia,” “Midnight Special,” “Put Your Red Dress On” and more. Jimmy’s hearty vocals and superb guitar skills were continually front and center; he did it all from scorching solo work to clean and stunning slide guitar work. He allowed his sidemen their moments in the spotlight along the way. More folks gathered to enjoy the music as the set progressed, and a little boy in the crowd started to boogie in front of the stage, even playing air saxophone during one of Eric’s solos. (Hopefully a new young blues fan was inspired this day!)

Shortly after Jimmy’s performance ended, I made my way up the hill to downtown Bedford and the gazebo stage area, where the local Bedford a cappella foursome A ‘Cappella Kinda Guys were in the midst of their second set. As advertised in their name, A ‘Cappella Kinda Guys did a cappella, with frequent and nice-sounding three- and four-part harmonizing. Along with the great harmonies was abundant freewheeling humor and banter between the four members, as they sang such songs as “Gave Up Religion for Lent,” “The Restroom Door” (sung to the melody of “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen”), “The Scotsman,” “Gangsta Folk,” “Ten-Finger Johnny,” “Cows with Guns” (my favorite) and more.

Dennie Huber was multi-tasking this day, doing balloon art for the youngsters, and emceeing and introducing performers on the gazebo stage.

Bedford’s own A ‘Cappella Kinda Guys. They were fun!

After A ‘Cappella Kinda Guys’ performance ended, I returned to the river stage to see Maryland-based jazz singer Connie Guy and her band. Accompanied by a four-piece band including a keyboardist, sax player, bassist and drummer; Connie performed a blend of lounge-styled jazz, swing and blues. She sang such selections as Johnny Mercer’s “Dream,” the Cannonball Adderley-popularized “Black Orpheus,” “Everything Must Change,” plus tunes by the Neville Brothers, Cole Porter and more. Connie showed a smooth and steady voice and good vocal range, and her band was tight and tasteful on their instruments and execution.

As the clock approached 3 PM, I made my way back up the hill to the downtown gazebo stage, where Norman Nardini was ready to kick off his performance. Due to workplace commitments at my new broadcast employer, I could only stick around for a handful of songs, but watched as Norman, drummer/singer Whitey Cooper (performing one of his last shows with Norman before stepping away for an indefinite hiatus) and bassist Harry Bottoms led off with two instrumentals, and followed with “Something’s Cooking” and “We’ve Still Got a Long Way to Go.” Content that Norman’s wit and musical chops were in good form this day, I reluctantly made my way to the bus stop to depart the Festival and do the return trip to the ‘Toona.

THE SYRINS @ FAMILY PIZZA, ALTOONA 10/4/08
After initiating the airwaves of my new radio environs, Rocky 104.9 (and reuniting on-air with my former “All Night Album Rock” partner-in-crime, Jay Randyll), I recharged the batteries before taking on a live band doubleheader this Saturday night; kicking off by checking in with The Syrins at Family Pizza and Pub.
The house was busy as I arrived early in The Syrins’ second set. Guitarists/singers Tom Fronauer and Ryan Furry, bassist/singer Mike Furry and drummer/singer Chris Conrad reliably mixed ‘60s, ‘70s and ‘80s classics, and tossed a few surprises in along the way. This second set featured tunes from Loverboy, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Surfaris, CCR, Steve Miller Band, Them, Romantics, Bad Company, Dire Straits and more. A surprise during this set was when The Syrins broke out a tune by the Blues Brothers.
The Syrins were in good form so far, nailing the mark on vocals and instruments. Again these guys nicely captured the spirits of the original hits, and their energy and enthusiasm triggered some early dance floor action.
Soon the nightcap set got under way, as The Syrins reconvened with the “Roger Moore Boogie.” The group continued with The Boxtops’ “The Letter,” the Pretenders’ “My City Was Gone,” and The Hollies’ “Bus Stop,” which nicely showcased their vocal harmonies. Dancers again filled the floor in front of the stage as The Syrins continued with more tunes from CCR, Tommy Tutone, Tom Petty, Georgia Satellites, Steppenwolf, Tommy James & the Shondells, John Fogerty and more. At set’s end, the Family Pizza crowd wanted one more, and The Syrins honored the encore demand with Dire Straits’ “Money for Nothing.”
The Syrins provided a good start to the night, and content that they again delivered the goods this night, I headed to my final destination of this busy live music day…

KYX @ 30 SOMETHING, ALTOONA 10/4/08
My final destination of this night was 30 Something, to check in with classic rocking faves Kyx.
I arrived as the group was just into their last set of the night. Special guest guitarist Dick Kos of The Red Arrow was on the stage with the group on renditions of Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “I Know a Little” and Georgia Satellites’ “Keep Your Hands to Yourself.” The Kyx roster of guitarists/singers Bill Ferrell and Bill Moyer, guitarists Jim Walstrom and Mike Nevling, bassist/singer Glenn Walstrom, keyboardist Terry Wills and drummer Chris Sherkel kept the dance floor busy with rocking classics from Romantics, ZZ Top, Steppenwolf, Neil Young, Rick Springfield, Bruce Springsteen, John Cafferty & the Beaver Brown Band and more. Highlights during this set included Kyx’s rendition of Bruce Springsteen’s “Rosalita,” with Bill capturing the Boss’ voice dead on, and the group’s accurate read of The Who’s “Won’t Get Fooled Again.”
Again Kyx sounded good as they captured the style and sound of each of the artists they covered; coming close on the instrumental and vocal arrangements of the classics they tackled. The 30 Something crowd was appreciative of their efforts, and the dance floor remained busy through the course of the set. From what I got to witness, a good time!

APPLE CIDER FESTIVAL @ PRINCE GALLITZIN STATE PARK 10/5/08
It had been a good 3 years since I last attended Prince Gallitzin State Park’s annual Apple Cider Festival, held on the first Sunday of October each year. But with live music on the schedule for this year’s event, and a nice early autumn day on tap weather-wise, I was there!
After arriving and making my first pass around the food vendor area, I went to the stage area, where Rosie and the Jammers were in the midst of their performance. The group – namesake Rosie Sida on keys, Jim Mosey on guitar and vocals, Brian Anater on saxophone and Eric Furfari on accordion – were asking the ages old proverbial polka question “Who Stole the Keeshka” as I arrived. The group mixed polkas with rock’n’roll and country hit standards; doing numbers by Johnny Rivers, Willie Nelson, Sam the Sham & the Pharoahs and more. Along the way, they dedicated “God Bless the U.S.A.” to the veterans in the audience. This band was having fun, and Jim’s voice was again in good form, displaying soul and range.

Folks dance in a ring with Uncle Sam as Rosie & the Jammers perform “God Bless the U.S.A.”
After watching Rosie & the Jammers for a little while, I got up and proceeded to take in the other sights and sounds of the Festival, along the way meeting up with partners in crime Guv’nor Jesse and Sparky the Engineer. I spent some time at the Shaver’s Creek display, where a representative was doing a presentation on snakes – including a black rat snake like the one I saw a few weekends prior at the Pennsylvania Musician Bed & Breakfast. I told her about witnessing the classic encounter between black rat snake and black cat.
After doing our circuit around the Festival, we arrived back at the live music area, where Johnstown-based Celtic/roots music group Tree was under way with their performance. Bill Harnett on guitar and vocals, wife Jen Harnett on fiddle, Wayne McEwan on washboard and Chris Klym on drums performed an interesting and entertaining mixture of Celtic, folk and Americana numbers. Tree did a generous dose of Flogging Molly numbers, including “Drunken Lullabies,” “Selfish Man,” “The Likes of You Again” and others. They also did select numbers from Gaelic Storm, the Irish Rovers, their spins on the traditional “Whiskey In the Jar” and “Over the Waterfall,” and other Celtic-flavored numbers. They also touched on Americana and folk, doing “Old Joe Clark,” “Wagon Wheels,” “Rocky Top,” “Turkey in the Snow,” and showcasing Jen’s fiery fiddle skills, Charlie Daniels’ “Devil Went Down to Georgia.” The musical highlights were continuous, especially Jen’s fiddle playing; and another highlight along the way was Wayne’s grandson, Ben, joining alongside his grandfather to play a small washboard of his own! Cool!

After catching much of Tree’s set, we set off to see more of the Festival, and took one of the tractor-led hayrides along the beach shore of Glendale Lake. This year’s combination of nice weather and good musical performances made the Apple Cider Festival an enjoyable experience, and worth the trip up the hill to check out.

FLIGHT 19 @ PELLEGRINE’S, ALTOONA 10/5/08
This first weekend in October ended with a trip aboard the Party Plane, as Flight 19 provided the Sunday night finale at Pellegrine’s.
Perhaps because everybody was partied out following the Pittsburgh Steelers’ win over Jacksonville this night, only a few hardy partiers remained to enjoy Flight 19’s festivities this night. But the band made the most of it, rocking the folks who were in the house with their high-octane rocking blend of modern and classic rock, dance hits and more.
The Party Plane lifted off with one of their new original songs, “Liquid Courage,” followed by the group’s update of The Front’s “Girl Like You.” The remainder of the set featured tunes by Jonny Lang, Honeymoon Suite, Finger Eleven, Styx, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, and an 80’s dance/new wave medley that interconnected Men Without Hats’ “Safety Dance,” INXS’ “Devil Inside,” Soft Cell’s “Tainted Love” and Sly Fox’s “Let’s Go All the Way.”
Flight 19’s nightcap set (they only did two sets this night due to the late-ending Steelers game) took to the air with Kid Rock’s “All Summer Long,” and followed with three 80’s hard rock classics: Kiss’ “Lick It Up,” Loverboy’s “Turn Me Loose” and Poison’s “Talk Dirty to Me,” with special guest “Bad Daze Rob” Carolus singing lead. Next was the group’s regularly-scheduled 70’s funk/disco medley, which included The Commodores’ “Brick House,” Gap Band’s “You Dropped a Bomb on Me” and more. The party rode down the homestretch with Billy Idol’s “Rebel Yell,” Seether’s “Fake It,” the John McKelvey-sung version of Gary Numan’s “Cars,” and the night-ending edition of Buckcherry’s ever-popular “Crazy Bitch.”
Although Pelly’s wasn’t packed, the folks who stayed around seemed to enjoy Flight 19’s efforts this night, and some populated the dance floor area in front of the band as the night continued on.
