My review of the show

Posted by Doug Harper on Monday, February 8, 2010, In : REVIEWS 
It was a good feeling to get to rock out on a half stack like the good old days. The guys were really feeling good about the set and we all put forth an honest effort to rock. The crowd was slow but they received us well, and seemed to be jamming along good, and stuck it out through all three sets that we played, as there was no opener it was just us, Hollywood Adventure that night at the Comedy Tonight Theater on the Nevada square on Saturday, February sixth. I felt like it was a great way t...

Two performers were set to perform that night, Alamo Black a duo consisting of Nathan Rorabaugh, Nevada Missouri, and Clinton Houseman, Springfield MO, and Matthew Harper a solo singer ...

Lamar RockFest Review

Posted by Dangerous Doug Harper on Sunday, January 17, 2010, In : CONCERT REVIEWS 

About a week ago a message was sent out on Facebook announcing that a concert called the Lamar RockFest was to be held at the Lamar Memorial Hall, in Lamar Missouri. What? A single word sentence was exactly the first thing that came out of many residents mouths when they read the content of the post. The most alarming part was that the post was true; a RockFest would be coming to the Lamar Memorial Hall.

On the evening of Friday January 15, 2010 the Memorial Hall was transformed into a rock co...
