The Tattooed Love Dogs October 25, 2009

Formed in 1988, The Tattooed Love Dogs scorched the Sacramento music scene with their country-tinged rock, long before terms like "alt-americana" were coined. They finally hung up their spurs in 2001, and things have never been the same. Until now. After a special "5 year reunion" show in September 2006, the flame is once again burning. Original members Mike Blanchard, Vince Montoya, Scott George and Larry Schiavone, along with new bassist Ryan "Whiskey Pills" Blanchard and David Van Dusen are back for a while.
