*Thanks everyone who voted–you made it so!
She’s got the bangs. She’s got the attitude. She’s got the scowl.
But can she sing with a sneer?
Come hear for yourself!
What: In concert, Tatooed Love Boys, a Pretenders tribute band (for band name origin see: Pretenders album 1, side 1, song #4).
Who: Pam Barrett (as you-know-who*), Sean Michael Dargan (as James “Honeyman” Scott), Tom Broeske (as Pete Farndon), Michael Brenneis (as Martin Chambers).
How: The first set IS the first album:
Embrace the Scowl!
The needle drops on “Precious” and runs straight through “Mystery Achievement.” The second set is a smattering of tasty tunes from the second, third and fourth albums.
A sample of classic lines Pam wanted to highlight (with a sneer):
“I had my eye on your Imperial”
“All impressed and half undressed”
“You ask me for advice, I say use the door”
“Silver lights, summer moon”
“And furthermore, I don’t like your trousers!”
(Can you tell Pam is relishing getting to be rude in the name of impersonation?)
When: Tuesday, February 23rd starting at 5:30 PM (sharp!) TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!
Where: High Noon Saloon
Hope to see you there!
*Q: How many music critics does it take to say, “You sound like Chrissie Hynde.” before Pam *snaps* and joins a Pretenders tribute band?
A: All of them!
