SOME BANDS YOU JUST HAVE TO SEE LIVE

As The Wailers show gets closer (it's just a week away on Thursday, November 12), I keep finding amazing videos and reviews about the band's past and present.

Check out the video on Daily Motion which includes some history on The Wailers but also video footage of a few recent shows.

Being in the audience, and hearing the original members (along with a few talented new members) perform the legendary EXODUS album, will truly be a memorable experience. The lineup includes original Wailers Family Man Aston Barrett, bass; Keith Sterling, keyboards; Chico Chin, trumpet; and Nambo Robinson, trombone along with Elan Atias, lead vocals.

The band has also been incredibly busy putting together programs to aid world hungry relief efforts.  You can support the cause at the show by purchasing a special wristband.  And, this is cool...as part of their rider, instead of having the ASC provide food for the band and the crew, they have asked us to donate the food we would normally provide as part of the contract to a local food bank. 

Legendary musicians and humanitarians, it doesn't get any better!

For tickets to the show, call (205) 975-ARTS or visit www.AlysStephens.org.
