The
Vote For Change Concert was held at Rock ‘n’ Roll Heaven on October 16th.
Held to raise awareness for the November election the show featured some
of the area’s newest and best bands and a reunion of the legendary band
The 7th Sons. Kicking off the nearly six and a half hour show were Gary
Zoldos and Bob James doing some acoustic numbers. Kim Sloan was up next
and performed a solo set of original
songs. She would return later to play with her band The Surrenders. The
Uncalled For were next and played a set of refined rock to the crowds delight.
Mini Motor Punch kicked things up a notch with a great set of tunes from
their soon to be released CD. Kim Sloan and The Surrenders were next and
played a stunning set of covers and originals. Middleman
showcased songs from their stellar new release and was well received by
the crowd of music aficionados. The 7th Sons closed the night with a forty
five minute set and proved that they had not lost a step with this their
first gig in a couple of years. An incredible showcase for local talent
and a great time for all in attendance. Remember to support local music
by attending shows and purchasing locally made and produced music. You’ll
feel good about it.
