That's right. The greatest rock-n-roll band in the world, The Supersuckers, are coming back to Okieland for the second time in less than a year, albeit on a very strange bill. Let's roll down the list here.
First off, Joan Jett headlining above The Supersuckers? Seriously? Now I will admit that Joan probably has bigger balls than the band at the bottom of the bill (Taddy Porter) but come on. Last time we saw Eddie and the boys here they were sandwiched between Nashville Pussy and Reverend Horton Heat (awesome fucking show) with the Rev' headlining. Now that I can tolerate. While I think The Supersuckers should always headline, the Rev' is cool. And to keep me from bitching too much about Joan Jett being the main attraction, Lemmy did have a considerable number of good things to say about her in his book. And well, Lemmy has spoken. Nuf' said.
It also appears that Stoney Larue is going on after The Greatest Rock-n-Roll Band In The World. Now that I do not agree with. I do Think Stoney Larue is good. I have 1 of his cd's. I didn't buy it and wouldn't buy another, but I do listen to it occasionally. He's cool enough, but never should he go on after The Supersuckers. And once Stoney hears the boys, he may be wishing he wasn't either. Good luck with that.
It should be interesting to hear what sort of set The Evil Powers of Rock-n-Roll play. They have a considerable number of "country" tunes and I wouldn't be surprised to hear them dip into that bag here.
The opening act is fucked from the get-go with a name like Taddy Porter. You should never name your band after someone who sounds like they got their ass kicked every day and walked around with a permanent wedgie. C'mon guys. I've never heard 'em and they may be good but they've already put themself down on the scale with that stupid fucking name.
I think we could fix this bill by letting Joan Jett open for The Supersuckers who would then play a nice long set. We give Taddy Porter a group swirlie and send them on their way and then give Stoney Larue a big bowl to smoke while he enjoys the show. (maybe let him come up for a few countryfied tunes during the main show) ...but then nobody asked me.
I just noticed it said "all ages" for the show which means Jake will be able to catch it. Even cooler.
Cheers,
