TRIBUTE BANDS ARE MY SPEED!

         I just ordered tickets to a Tribute Group that concentrates on Bob Dillon, Roy Orbison, and Tom Petty. The tickets were only $44.00 for the pair and very very close to the stage. And yes, you guessed it, it is being held the first week of January 2019 in the entertainment center at Mesquaki Casino near Tama, Iowa. 

         In the last few years, I have missed out on some big time R&R groups, but, because my budget just can't handle $300 to $400 for close up seats that I would prefer. Besides, most Tribute groups are very good  singers and musicians, and, besides, most of the enjoyment is just going down memory lane for a couple of hours. 

          One of my best examples in the last few years has been enjoying the Steely Dan Tribute band--The Fez. They are Steely Dan and I would say they are one of THE best bands in all of Iowa and can be enjoyed in and around the Iowa City area. PS. I called in a made my reservation and didn't have to pay a "convenient fee!"
