Texas Hippie Coalition
Rock Island Brewing Company
Tuesday, September 24, 8 p.m.
The Southern-rock and heavy-metal musicians of Texas Hippie Coalition will play the Rock Island Brewing Company on September 24, and on the band's TheOutlaw.com Web site, frontman Big Dad Ritch described the group's hit song "Damn You to Hell" thusly: "It has such drive and intensity that it's like a mixed-martial-arts event, like UFC pay-per-view, like someone being grounded and pounded on."
As a suggestion of the Texas Hippie Coalition style, that description seems so close to perfect that I'm tempted to just end this piece right there.
