I must say that even though I am predominately a metal and punk fan, and mainly choose to focus on harder edged music on SRG. I have a huge soft spot for a few local bands outside that realm that have not only made timeless records in recent times, but continue to amaze me live in concert. It's also not often you are in the right place at the right time, like in the case of the Moondoggies. I can say with certiantly that I was actually there from the beginning. Thanks to some ties from high school I was one of only a handful of witnesses to the Moondoggies' humble beginnings at multiple of those now legendary Blue Moon shows. The rest is an awesome story of record deals, sold out shows, local festival appearences, critical acclaim, and now a US Tour that I am thrilled to have been apart of thus far.
The saga of the Moondoggies only gets better as today the Bonnaroo Festival announced its Cafe Stage lineup, and guess who will be on the farm this June? Our very own Moondoggies!! Congratulations guys, such great news!! See for yourself here.
The Moondoggies play their next non-secret local show at Neumos on May 20th. This show will sell out, so get tickets now.
The whole $5 cover things kinda blows, but the shorts I have seen including the future one featuring Warning:Danger! are pretty rad. This one is no exception. A very well done look at the Moondoggies. Check it out!
