"The Lunatics have taken over the asylum.' (Fun Boy Three-1982)
These Lunatics come with a FRINGE Benefit. Since he set out on a quest to use the power of Rock N Roll to save the world from mindless psychos like The Party Of NO, Mr. Fringe, singer and guitarist of The Joliet based Lunatics Fringe has faced alleged kidnappings and mind erasing in his journey of Rock release. He brings great rock for a few great causes to The Forge In Joliet, and through its saving and healing power will help those to resist the dangerous effects of suicide and substance abuse. Celebration is a day and night of triumph of those who are facing the demons of wanting to take their own lives, or waste them away with too many drugs. Four Chicago area metal bands used their very explosive power chords and angst ridden singing to rock troubled people out of a troubled state of mind. I talk in person to Mr. Fringe and give you the live rock action of Lunatics Fringe, Spamicidal Jelly, Khaos Ordinance, and Let Them Fight.
Kankakee's award-winning alternative rock quintet Carrying Torches prepares us all for the slushy, bitter cold future with a heartwarming new single that will have you carving out a future with your own two parka clad arms.
October means the inescapable candy dominated season of Halloween. Black Road made every day seem like all hallows eve, and every minute like a witching hour. I first dropped in on their dark hard stoner rock spell, five years ago this week, as they rocked a packed Reggie's Music Joint Saturday night crowd. We rock back to it.
You're in a music filled trance and can't get out of it. Fall into the groove of original Chicago area metal, punk, alternative rock, and power pop, by treating yourself (with no candy shortage tricks attached) to:
