*05/15/14 - Flying Fish Sailors & the Rogues at the Mucky Duck McGonigels Mucky Duck 2425 Norfolk Houston, Texas 77098 7:00 PM - FFS 9:00 PM - TR Flying Fish Sailors Advance Tickets: $20.00 Ticket price at the door: $22.00 The Flying Fish Sailors began their journeys in 1988 performing Celtic folk, renaissance music and sea songs, then progressed to original songs, humor, parody and folk rock. No strangers to diversity, in their early days the band often played in punk clubs, opening for such notables as The Dead Milkmen, Live Skull, and Shoulders. In recent times the Fish have opened shows for the legendary British folk rockers Steeleye Span, Brother, Tommy Makem, and Altan. The bands’ influences range from The Chieftains to Devo. Performing acoustic folk music and original comedy, the Flying Fish Sailors bring together elements from diverse musical styles to create a sound uniquely their own. Their shows combine modern and antique instrumentation, and musical styles from many times and cultures: A place where humorous original songs, Renaissance tunes, American and Celtic folk songs converge with classic rock themes, the blues, and even rap and heavy metal influences. +++++++++++++ The Rogues Advance Tickets: $20.00 Ticket price at the door: $22.00 Founded in Houston in 1994, The Rogues created a new genre of Celtic music with exceptionally well-played pipes and driving percussion. From street festivals to Scottish Highland games to performing with a symphony orchestra, The Rogues deliver a commanding performance. Starting at the Texas Renaissance Festival in 1994, the band soon began performing out of state and added Scottish Highland Games and Celtic festivals and corporate shows. The band has produced it's own theater show called Celtic Crossroads and performed as a guest artist with the Air Force Symphony Orchestra in Washington, DC and had music featured in the 2011 film "Kill the Irishman.". The Rogues have performed in Las Vegas, Scotland, Greece, Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, Canada, several cruises and all over the United States. Members of the band have competed all over North America and won 1st place at the World Pipe Band Championships. The Rogues have produced 10 albums and 2 DVDs to date and are listed in the official Grammy book for several nominations, though falling short of the final 5. The Rogues have a tradition of supporting charities, sometimes holding their own fundraisers supporting individuals and causes for soldiers. The band even has it's own tartan in the Scottish Register of Tartans. ******************************************** *06/20/14 - Blaggards at the Ashford Pub June 20, 2014 - 9:30 pm Ashford Pub 13308 Westheimer Rd Houston, TX 77077 281-679-6112 http://www.ashfordpub.com/ Tickets: $5 ******************************************* *07/04/14 - Blaggards 10 year Anniversary at the Ashford Pub July 4th, 2014 – 10:00 pm Ashford Pub 13308 Westheimer Rd Houston, TX 77077 281-679-6112 http://www.ashfordpub.com/ Tickets: $5 |
