Retro Active

Once again, it's time to find glam in the Midwest. For my search, I'll head south to Cincinnati where Vains of Jenna are slated to perform with Hookers n' Blow.

You might recall that it was just a few weeks ago that I saw VOJ in the Queen City. Tonight, my Swedish rockers are playing at a more upscale venue for which I am very grateful.

An all-star cast of characters came together to form Hookers n' Blow. At the band's core is Dizzy Reed (Guns n' Roses, Alex Grossi (Quiet Riot), Mike Duda (W.A.S.P.), and Troy Patrick Farrell (White Lion). Sometimes, other famous musicians like John Corabi join the fold when the other stars are touring with their "real" bands.

Hookers n' Blow play a lot of Guns n' Roses, which should be interesting. They also play covers from Aerosmith, Cheap Trick, KISS...and Elton John. I'm not sure how old Elton fits into the mix, but somehow I think it probably works.

Don't worry, glam fans. I'll have a complete review tomorrow.

I know of Vains of Jenna, but have never heard them.
