SUGARCREEK - December 2007

About Me


From the summer of 1971 through the fall of 1990, Sugarcreek (The Creek), played over 4500 shows from Canada to Florida! After 3 "reunion" gigs in 2005 & 06, we have decided to no longer call it a reunion . . . . we’ll just call it SUGARCREEK, again and play a few dates, here and there.Whenever you may hear of a SUGARCREEK date announced (and there will be only a few, because of our other bands and committments) . . please check this site for THE most accurate information.The songs we’ll play, are from the 1981-86 SUGARCREEK and 1986-1990, THE CREEK era, pulling hits and favorites from our 5 albums along with tunes from similar artists like, Journey, Styx, Kansas, yadda! Again, because of the complexity of arranging these SUGARCREEK playdates, this website will inform you of exactly who will be in the lineup for that show, plus any additions or changes.We really enjoy playing the good old songs "together again" and look forward to playing more shows. One more quick note, we have considered writing and recording some new things also . . . just because!Thanks to all of the "Official Creek Freaks" through the years . . . . let’s rock some more!Check this YOUTUBE video put together by a old ’Creek Freak", Rob Howell!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAHItsJWl58SUGARCREEK
