My 1rst time seeing MH, my husbands 31rst time.Beautiful Venue absolutely no bad place to sit at Penns Peak!
Band was good lead singer was off key, was late getting to the concert, so much so the band started without him; he showed up 2 songs in and an hour late.... good memories though from the 70’s just disappointing....
The opening act The Electric Frog was great and worth seeing again. Molly Hatchett was great also but the sound man should have caught they were so loud everybody near the front that I spoke with said too loud the words were tough to hear and I know their songs but the bass was heart pounding because of the volume. Great show though and they played all their hits! Well worth the 2 hour drive to see. Just as solid as when I saw them with Blackfoot in the 70's in Jacksonville.
Molly Hatchet was better than expected for being around 40 years!!!
Lead guitarist player was way to loud drowning out the vocals. Lead singer screaming trying to be heard over the loud lead guitariest player. They are fake,,, nothing like the late 70’s and early 80’s.
I decided to go to this show at the last minute. I had never attended a concert at this particular venue before. It was a great setting for a concert. Good acoustics, great architecture, and excellent staff and volunteers. Great White was in fine form and really brought the energy. Molly Hatchet was solid and reliable with their performance. I was slightly disappointed that Brian Howe wasn't there, but they had Mickie James there and she looked great and sounded pretty good too. I can't say enough good things about the venue and the people there.
really disappointed molly hatchet SUCKED, Jack Russel was not with & singing for Great White & Brian Howe Band was a No Show, the venue was great would really love to see a good band pack the house in the there.
Nice place, great white was very good. Molly Hatchet was average, Just didn't seem to rock like I expected.
Awsome as always!! They always make the night!! They rock the hell out of us and always drippin sweat
Worst show I ever, sound was so bad people didn't even stay for the whole show and Brian Howe didn't even perform.
It is bad when the WWE woman is better than the bands you PAID to see. Bad Company was a no show. Great White at least tried and was OK. The road crew for Molly Hatchet was an absolute disaster, from not being able to get the equipment set up properly to two guys coming almost to blows with one walking out twice. When Molly Hatchet finally got on stage the music was so loud that you could not tell what songs he was attempting to sing. Finally left after three songs. This was the worst concert(I use this word lightly) I have attended in my life. To top it off the bartenders tried to rip us off. First drinks $8.00 second drinks(same drinks as the first) $15.00 finally settled for $10.00. The venue was trying to save money by not running the A/C and scrimping on paper towels in the bathrooms probably because there were only about 200-250 people there in the first place. Way less than that when Molly Hatchet started playing! HORRIBLE!!!!!!
Event: Rocktoberfest feat. Molly Hatchet, Outlaws and Black Oak Arkansas. Black Oak Arkansas: Not very impressive at all; female band member seemed out of place with the show and distracting. Outlaws: Should have been the headliner! Show was tight and Henry Paul was GREAT! So too, Chris Anderson and Monte Yoho. Steve Grisham, Dave Robbins and Randy Threet were outstanding in their own right. The whole band put on a great performance from begining to end. Wish I could have heard them play longer!!! In fact, would have been happy seeing them as the only band playing the show. Molly Hatchet: A major disappointment. Sounded more like a cover band than the real thing! Phil McCormack did, however, give a stirring tribute to our current and past service members and for that gets my accolades here!
Now I have seen this band quite a few times in the past, but to pass yourself off as Molly Hatchet is a joke...#1) only one guitar player #2) singer was trying to be someone he's not #3) sound was way way to loud to the point it was distortion.... very unimpressed to say the least. Now the band that opened for them "Black Oak Arkansas" was way better, Jim Dandy sounded like he hasn't missed a beat, vocal was right on...wished they played longer than we wouldn't have had to leave early during Molly "wanna be" Hatchet. To those that think your gonna enjoy the tunes of your youth with M H, don't waste you money...
In order of appearance...never heard of Black Oak Arkansas, but i have to say they were pretty darn good southern rockers! The Outlaws were spectacular...great songs, great jamming, lots of personality!! The crowd went crazy when they did their thing...would see them again in a heartbeat!!! After the Outlaws were done, many left...we did not realize it would be indicative of the final act, Molly Hatchet. They were stale, no great tunes and it seemed as if they pleaded with the crowd to cheer them. They may have been good once, but no more...
Well Black Oak Arkansas was OK and now that Molly Hatchet is down to 1 guitar from 3 power lead guitars (1979)... the Outlaws were the main act. Every note was perfect!
Outlaws were fantastic! Was great to see them again live. Brought back memories of Pinecrest and New Haven Coliseum. Taking in to consideration they were big back in the early 70s, Black Oak Arkansas gets a pass. Did not know if we were seeing jim dandy or Wolfman Jack. wish Outlaws closed out the show, Molly Hatchet seemed to be having an off night, or maybe they are truly now just a Hatchett cover band... The place started clearing out after 2 or 3 songs. maybe they were just too loud, blame the sound guy, Lead singer did he really want to be there... can he sing? Sorry to pick on them, I saw them back in the 80s back in the day! Over all I have to say I was happy to hear live Southern Rock. I would have liked to seen Outlaws, Artimus Pyle band and Black smoke cherry or Marshall Tucker?
It's been 33 years since I saw Molly Hatcher Live (1983) and yes, I miss some of the ol' birds but I'll tell ya, Their music and their musicianship has been, still is, and hopefully WILL BE for years to come, TOP-KNOTCH, and the way Rock 'N Roll SHOULD be!
Been a fan for many years and have been to many shows. This was a great show and they rocked out. I definitely think more people should have been there to be blown away. Only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 was it wasn't long enough :-(
The band tried hard but did not have the gusto of the original.
Instrument volume too loud for vocals. Molly Hatchet still rocks, would see them again hopefully with all members present next time!
