Music Line -Up:

Friday, July 28, 2023

Come celebrate 40 years of Metal Health with Quiet Riot & Great White July 28th! Presented by Mr. Plywood.

8pm: Quiet Riot

6pm: Great White

5:15-5:30pm - Seth Myzel Band

Get tickets - Legendary bassist and Metal Health founding member RUDY SARZO has returned to QUIET RIOT after almost a 20 year absence. As per the wishes of Frankie Banali who passed away in 2020, and the Banali estate QUIET RIOT continues its historic journey in 2023. The lineup is composed of QUIET RIOT guitarist ALEX GROSSI, vocalist JIZZY PEARL(Love Hate) and is now joined by Type O Negative drummer JOHNNY KELLY.

California-based Great White is Mark Kendall (guitar), Michael Lardie (guitar, keyboards), Audie Desbrow (drums), Scott Snyder (bass), and Brett Carlisle (vocals). For a band to continue to thrive 40 years in the music business, the mantra must be, these songs are bigger than any one member. GRAMMY nominated hard rock legends Great White are adding onto that line with the saying: expect the unexpected. It’s rock and roll, baby.

Happy Hour 'till 7pm
Great White@6pm "Rock Me" "Once Bitten, Twice Shy"
