 $5
22 Rock City Rd. Woodstock NY
(845) 679-5342
Two Gun Man reformed in September 2006 when Julian Seidenberg (drums, percussion, vocals), Reid Waring (lead singer, chief writer, rhythm guitar) and Josh Watson (lead guitar) moved from Washington State to New York's Hudson Valley. There they rejoined Josh Miesmer (bass, vocals), who quickly resumed his role as the hilarious nucleus of the band, following stints with Johnny Society, Mr. Forky and Joseph Arthur. For Seidenberg and Waring this was a homecoming reunion, having performed with Meismer as a three-piece group years before. But for Watson, a native of the same town which launched Nirvana, Mudhoney and the Melvins, this was a leap into the unknown. In its previous incarnation, Two Gun Man had been solid: loads of fun and brimming with potential. But only as a four piece has that potential finally been realized: roots rock & roll and Americana at its best, indefinably but unmistakably brilliant. More Information | ||

Saturday 10:30 pm | OD's Presents the Best Jump Blues Band Anywhere! with The Slippery Chickens Blues | O'Donoghue's of Nyack 66 Main St. Nyack, NY See Map |
 They’re our only blues band... ‘cause they‘re so atypical
of the genre! OD’s has tried hiring Chicago style bands,
with “She done me wrong” lyrics and crying guitars, and,
although we like that kind of music as well, there’s just
something about the Chickens’ upbeat, stride sound
that makes all the others fall away. The booming voice and upright slap bass of front man Jerry Scaringe, and the slightly nutty, sliding tempo guitar of Mike Olivieri are reasons the Chickens’ jump style is so appealing. Add the rambunctious, bang-bang drumwork of Richie Narigian, and you have the hippest, happiest blues music this side of a New Orleans wedding! OD's thanks HVM for listing this Slippery Chickens appearance. As always, there's no cover charge! | ||
