Molley Hatchet was a major part of Southern Rock in the 70's and 80's. In 2011 they are proving to the world they still know how to record new music and play a live show. They have not lost the sound that launched them into the national spotlight so many years ago. Yes, they are older, but thay have not lost there roots in classic Southern Rock. They put on an amazing performance. Dave Hlubek is a beast of the guitar. He is still on the top of his game and proving it live out on the stage. If you have not seen Moley Hatchet and always wanted to but you have been wondering, "Are they still any good?" I suggest the answer is HELL YEAH! Now if you are only familiar with their biggest hit Flirtin with Disaster and thought, "Should I spend $20 to hear one song?" HELL YEAH you should. If you are just vague familiar with the band one show will change you forever. The talent of this band will grab your attention and make you a true believer. Molley Hatchet proudly continues the tradition of hard classic rock with a Southern twist and a sound that is uniquely their own, This will be the best $20 you spend on a live performance. Once you have had the experience, when your friends ask have you seen Molley Hatchet, you can proudly respond, HELL YEAH and I going see any time I get a chance!
What a tremendous surprise. First I see some chick from American Idol who truly was great...then...Molly Hatchet finally gets on stage...and these guys rock it out. Tremendous lead guitar...great vocals...tremendous drums...and a surprise ending with Freebird performed and I just really do appreciate the quality of entertainment compared to what you have to pay for some shows these days. The venue...disorganized...smokey..full of drunk obnoxious people falling all over each other...poorly organized seating at the front tables. Truly a very negative situation that didn't have to be this way. When will Indiana catch up to the real world and make smoking an outdoor sport. Additionally...the amps were over-driven and my ears are still ringing. There ought to be safety standards for the quality of sound.
First time seeing Blackfoot, a lot of talent. Seen Molly Hatchet twice befor with Danny Joe Brown. New singer is ok, but no DJB. Bobby Ingram was smokin on gutar!
I love heading down the road and flirting with disaster - darn da darn - whistle
Blackfoot ROCKED! Molly Hatchet didn't. I felt kinda bad for Phil McCormick and Bobby Ingram in that they're HUGE (and I don't mean in a buff kind of way). On a positive note, Blackfoot kicked major hind parts - great, awesome, stellar in every way. I wish their set would've been longer but one should be pleased with what one receives.
This was our first time to Penn's Peak, so we didn't know what to expect. We were very surprised at what an awesome venue this is! We were concerned about the general admission, but I don't think it's even possible to get a bad seat (or standing spot) there. This was our second time seeing Molly Hatchet (saw them at Gettysburg Bike Week 2 years ago). They did not disappoint! Both times we saw them, they had a meet and greet with the fans, as well. Bobby Ingram has so much energy and talent on guitar (considering he just turned 27 - LOL)! Shawn Beamer does this amazing one-handed drum solo, and his hair blowing, well.... Tim Lindsey on bass is the hottest! John Galvin tickles the keyboard. Phil McCormack was great on vocals, and he always acknowledges our troops. I missed Dave Hlubek, he was sick and didn't make the show. I last saw Blackfoot in 1979, so it was a real treat to see them again! Greg T. Walker on bass was amazing, to say the least! Mike Estes sounded as good as ever on vocals. Kurt Pietro kept the beat going, and Charlie "Shorty" Hargrett appeared to having the time of his life! These guys are going to Europe soon, so I'm glad I got to see them here!
Blackfoot opened the night on time and sounded great. It was hard to believe Molly Hatchet could come out and put on a better show but they did. Hatchet sounded as great as ever from start to finish.
The band still sounds great and can still rock the house. The only thing we did not like was that they played Skynyrd's Free Bird. No one but Skynyrd should play that song.
Great venue, great music, great crown. We'll be back
I think that Blackfoot should have been the head liner instead of Molly Hatchet, the show was great exspeacially Blackfoot, the sound man sucked.
1st experience with both groups. Musicians top notch. Close your eyes and you can see these guys with Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Wow. Although my eardrums are still ringing, Molly Hatchet can still bring down the HOUSE! High energy, tight guitar work...drums and keyboard topnotch. I've watched these guys since 1979, off and on, but wasn't aware they still toured until I saw the announcement for Water Street in Rochester. The entire band, especially Phil, was approachable and down to earth and as an active military member, I love their passion for all things veteran. Again, we thought the show was a bit load for the venue,but Molly Hatchet rocks and I hope they continue to do so for years to come.
Great show and very very loud!! The guitarist for Molly Hatchet is incredible :)
Great concert! I had a lot of fun. I didn't really know these bands before now, but they are really good!
Great concert. Excellent venue. Good time was had by all.
PENNS PEAK IS REALLY NICE WITH SEATING AND I REALLY LIKED THE GENERAL ADDMISSION SINCE U COULD STAND RIGHT UP AGAINST THE STAGE IN THE PIT!! MOLLY HATCHET WAS VERY GOOD!!!!! BLACKFOOT WAS VERY GOOD CHARLIE HARGRETT WAS GREAT ! BOBBY BARTH WAS VERY GOOD!IF I COULD CHANGE ANYTHING IT WOULD BE BLACKFOOTS SELECTION OF SONGS !INSTEAD OF 2 SONGS FROM GREG'T WALKER ONLY ONE OF HIS SONGS AND BOBBY WOULDN'T PLAY ONE OF HIS SONGS FROM HIS SOLO ALBUM! I WOULD REPLACE THEM WITH THE QUEENIE SONG AND I'M ON THE RUN!!!!!!!!!ALSO IF BOBBY WOULD SING WITH MORE HARMONY THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN GREAT!!!! ALSO I THOUGHT THAT BOBBY COULD HAVE SUNG WISHING WELL THE WAY JAY SINGS IT ON THEIR DVD! !!!HEY I LOVE BLACKFOOT AND GO TO AS MANY SHOWS AS I CAN! I HAVE BEEN TO 5 SHOWS THIS YEAR ! THE NEW DRUMMER FROM JAN. HAS REALLY LEARNED THE MUSIC AND WAS JUST GREAT!!! SORRY FOR BEING A LITTLE NEGITIVE ON THE SHOW BUT I REALLY THOUGHT THEY WERE VERY GOOD!!!!!! BUT THEY DIDN'T PLAY 2 OF MY FAVORITE SONGS!!!!!!!I WILL BE AT THERE NEXT SHOW!!!!!!!
Played loud and proud!! OH HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
All though they are getting up there in age these guys still remember what it was that made them famous! Great music and the ability to throwdown on stage. A few of the songs in the middle of the performance were a little lackluster... But come on they are old and overweight! They were just saving themselves to shred your face of during a cover of the southern heavyweights Lynyrd Skynyrd's Free Bird! With a closing song like Flirtin with disaster how could you not be stoked by the time you leave. My only wish was that they would have played all of Fall of the Peacemakers. But I meet them after the show and they were more then happy to see a young guy enjoying the show and they signed the setlist for me. Great dudes and awesome music!
The actual concert was good, but i was a little aggravated at the fact that my ticket said start time was 6:00pm and they did not start until 8:30 pm. I had to sit there for 2 1/2 hrs and wait. Someone messed up big time!!!!!
