Chris Rhodes with the Pietasters too. What a show! Over 1 hour of Pietasters and 1 hour and 20 of Big D. Money's worth!

It was amazing. The Pietasters were a bucket list band for me that I thought I had missed the boat on.

I know!! The last two Michigan shows I attended there was no trombone. I asked at the show last week and they said he had a schedule conflict 😭 love the tenors but it is not the same!

Dude these guys play shining on and it’s over, that song was such a bop when I saw them over a decade ago.

Man what are the odds of them ever coming to texas...

Odds extremely high

u/ZephNightingale 2d ago

I mean I saw them play in Montgomery, AL years ago. So your odds aren’t terrible!

I used to go to their Halloween show every year since 2007. Had to miss the last two years because of old man responsibilities. Glad the band is still going
