Joe G.’s Coverband Explosions are notoriously great shows.  For 11 years Joe Garrigan has managed to bring together some of the best musicians in our area to mix it up and play a whole bunch of tunes you know and love.  Wigs, costumes, bare-chested drummers and a room full of people screaming out the lyrics to some of their most beloved songs are just some of the highlights.   We had the pleasure of attending Joe’s last cover show in December and I must say it was a damn good time.  For those of us who missed seeing a Ramones or Jimi Hendrix show, for example, this might have been the next best thing.

If you want to have some fun tonight, want to relive some old favorites in a live performance with some really talented people, want to drink a few beers and see lots of attractive ladies and fellas rockin’ it out like it’s a holiday weekend then you should head down to the Blind Tiger around 10pm.  Tonight’s bands inlcude Black Sabbath, Tom Waits, Neil Diamond, Drivin’n'Cryin’, Pavement and Eddie Vedder.  Hello!  Can you say AWESOME?  Most importantly all of Joe’s shows are for a good cause.  Tonight, all the proceeds will go to the North Carolina Humane Society.  So, you can have a bad ass Saturday night and save the sweet animals all at the same time.
