Tacoma Rock City
Friday, October 17th, 2008

I’m actually out of town this week, but still managed to round up a few details on a big AC/DC pre-funk at McCabe’s, scheduled to kick off around 2 p.m. on Nov. 30, the day the Aussie classic rockers headline the Tacoma Dome.

Promoter Bart Leland tells me that Tacoma boy and superstar DJ Steve Slaton of KZOK-FM will will host. “I remember growin’ up nobody else played AC/DC,” he recalled. And tribute band Soul Stripper will get everyone warmed up for the big show.

Leland said there'll also be AC/DC themed drink specials. Recipes are still being finalized and all, but I'll take a shot at one. Take a couple of shot or top whiskey, a shot of Jaeger and mix it into a pint of Wired Energy Drink. Call it a Live Wired. Bwahahahaha! Uh, that actually sounds disgusting. But I still want royalties if McCabe's uses it.

And all of that is not to mention all-gal AC/DC tribute band Hell’s Belles' return to Hell’s Kitchen the night before this event. See you at one or all of the above.
