GINGER ST. JAMES & The GRINDERS

for the Light Of Day Hamilton Fundraiser

with Tongue Fu & DJ Sammy Squid

Ginger St. James needs no introduction, and although The Grinders and Ginger have been playing gigs for years, seeing them at This Ain't Hollywood is a special treat. This amazing lineup will get you on your feet! Carrie Ashworth on bass, Tom Lamontagne on drums, Snowheel Slim on guitar and Greg Brisco on the straight eights lend a powerful backdrop to Gingers powerfully seductive voice!  Get ready to boogie & grind! 

And if you haven't heard Tongue Fu,  you've probably heard OF them... this is a great opportunity to see these guys rock! Gord Lewis, Lou Molinaro, Dave Elly, Gene Champagne and Greg Brisco form a powerhouse of sound that is reminiscent of  1970s New York rock n roll!  

There are some special secret guest appearances that will blow your mind! Make sure you get your ticket from Light Of Day Canada, the charitable organization that will benefit from this amazing event. Thanks to Andrea Rehill for all her hard work and dedication to this yearly event.

SYLVAIN SYLVAIN

SYLVAIN SYLVAIN & GLEN MATLOCK (SEX DOLLS) 

These monsters of rock have helped mould the punk/rock scene for decades. It is not unusual for This Ain't Hollywood to book legendary acts like this. But when two legends team up, it's a show that you really shouldn't miss. Sylvain Sylvain from the legendary  New York Dolls, teaming up with Glen Matlock of the UK's infamous Sex Pistols in an intimate setting like This Ain't Hollywood is guaranteed to be one of those magical nights. And if you are familiar with one of Hamilton's most well known fashion designers, Buckshot Bebee you will know that she is over the moon to be featured on this bill. Buckshot is co-owner of James St. North fashion boutique Blackbird Studio!

JOHNNY WINTER

w/ Terry Edmunds & Tim Gibbons

Johnny Winter needs no introduction, the man is a living legend. In the world of blues, he's done it all. It's amazing that he is still touring and that you can see this guitar giant at a club like This Ain't Hollywood in Hamilton, ON. 

Winter produced three Grammy-winning albums for Muddy Waters and was nominated several times himself. He was on the first cover of "Guitar World" magazine, in 1988. 

Johnny Winter takes the stage with local blues hero Tim Gibbons and Cape Bretons own Terry Edmunds. 

Tickets are available here while they last! Or you can check in and see if there's any left at Dr. Disc on Wilson Street. 

MAKING HEADLINES.....

Sometimes I'm amazed that there are others who love poster art as much as I do.... And sometimes those people put my work into the same category as my idols. After I'm done chuckling at the thought, I think to myself: "Damn, I better get to work." I really want to be worthy of this article....
