Rockin' at the 9:30 Club

Robert Gordon, original member of 1970s New York punk band Tuff Darts and well-regarded rockabilly singer is playing the 9:30 Club this Friday, August 14, with a punk/rockabilly all-star band of sorts. On guitar is Chris Spedding. Who's he played with . . . oh, Tom Waits, John Cale, Roxy Music, Johnny Thunders, Pretenders, and Paul McCartney, to name a few. Also in the band is former Stray Cat drummer Slim Jim Phantom and original Sex Pistols' bassist Glen Matlock. A powerful combination. As an added plus, New York garage rockers The Fleshtones are opening the show.

The music starts at 8:00 and costs a mere $20.00. What else would you want to do on a hot August night?
