THE PROPHETS OF ROCKABILLY FRIDAY OCTOBER 14th !!
Dear Friends & Fans
Check out this exciting upcoming gig of Lubbock's own Prophets of Rockabilly!!
Direct from their starring gig at the Buddy Holly Birthday Bash! (See the Prophets in action at the Buddy Holly Center here and here.)
The Prophets will be playing at the Lone Star Grill, at the top of Buffalo Springs Lake: http://www.thelonestargrill.
Friday, October 14, the Prophets of Rockabilly are throwing a rockabilly party at the Lone Star Grill, in its outdoor space, the Backyard. There's a dance floor surrounded by lots of benches, tables, and if necessary, firepits. It's a great place to hang out.
The event is BYOB with a $5 cover, and although the poster says 9-12, the Prophets will be laying it down from 8-12.
The Prophets of Rockabilly are your West Texas source for Buddy Holly music and other rock'n'roll greats: Elivis, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, Eddie Cochran, Chuck Berry, Gene Vincent, Jerry Lee Lewis . . .
And then we throw in a dash of Rolling Stones and Credence Clearwater Revival and a pinch of the Ramones.
Thanks a bunch, and hope to see you and all your rowdy friends out there on your lucky day, Friday the 14th!
Thanks for spreading the word. Your Prophet in Residence, Dr. Bruno
