Crazy man!, Crazy!

About Me

Yeah! Thats the one! The original Rough Rider Band from Wisconsin. Evolved through the last 30 years when Dale and Mike, a couple of "young hoodlum punk ruffians" first started Rough Rider as one of the hardest drivin' rockinest true rockabilly bands in this area. Yep, that's them! Lookee there they got a steel guitar and street rods......Oooooeeeee!
