Joe Buck is a one-man band from Murray, Kentucky who now resides in Nashville, Tennessee. Buck plays bass for Hank Williams III's country/hellbilly "Damn Band," and is also a member of Williams' punk-metal project "Assjack." Buck performs with a hellish intensity! Really he's quite nuts, I mean this in a good way, but do come see; this is what they mean when they say COWPUNK. The show is kind of like a country version of Timmy Vulgar.
Toledo's own Dooley Wilson (Boogaloosa Prayer, formerly of The Young Lords and Henry & June) is back in the D on the 12th. Wilson is quite possibly the best blues slide guitarist north of the Mason-Dixon line. Obscure 1930s and 40s blues songs combine with originals for one of the coolest set lists around. Toledo City Paper writer Ryan Bunch describes Wilson's playing as "more of a cosmic sex romp with the guitar than just playing it."
Accompanying Wilson will be harmonica master John Roundcity
fresh back from a long stint selling Christmas trees in Manhattan.

Pat V and the Detroit 3 put the ill back in hillbilly with a sound that is half Hank Sr. and half Pabst Blue Ribbon. Their music immediately transports you back down the lost highway and throws you through the swingin saloon doors of a 40's honky-tonk. Classic stories of scorned women, over indulgence and run-ins with the law fuel this good-timin' band's music, and are guaranteed to fuel any party all night long. Pat V and the Detroit 3 are pure country gold, Inside Outlaw style.
