About Me

The Bog Rolling Stones formed a while back with one aim in mind: to inject a little fun and tongue-in-cheek humour into the all too serious world of tribute bands. Realising that it is impossible to take ones self seriously whilst prancing about on stage in a wig and stripy trousers, the bands attitude revolves around high energy, no holds barred entertainment. (Not to mention shouting Yeaaaaaaahhhhhhh, baaayyyyybeeeee! at every opportunity) Band members slip in and out of character at opportune moments and wigs have been known to fly across the room. Then, just when you think its simply theatre, Keefs ice pick guitar strikes a nerve, the rhythm section plugs in and the music reaches up, grabs Mick by the ankle and pulls him under!During the past 11 years the band has earned a reputation as one of the most authentic sounding tribute acts around, tackling the more challenging songs with great enthusiasm.The Bog Rolling Stones are now one of the most popular, sought after live bands in the area. Of course, its only Rock n Roll.but a lot of people seem to like it, like it, yes they do!!! Mick Slacker & Co's hilarious tribute act just gets better and better. Satisfaction's always guaranteed when these long haired boys play your town!
