BAY ST. LOUIS: 100 Men Hall w/The Monsters at Large
The Monsters at Large take to the historic stage at the 100
Men Hall for an evening of good time music, food and fun on Friday, June 21st, at
7:00PM to 10PM.
There is nothing like the community vibe in Bay Saint Louis. Don't miss this treat
as the coast's top musicians come together to form The Monsters at Large.
From Pat Murphy in the Shoofly Magazine :
The band originally grew out of a group of musicians who were
members of The Dock of the Bay Music Company. They were
assembled by David "Snake" Hooker to play for one of his legendary
birthday parties. The band's original keyboardist, Derrell Brown,
passed away sometime back and was replaced by Sam Brady who
lives just north of Jackson in Madison.
The members of The Monsters At Large are Tommy Moran on guitar, Sam Brady
on keyboards, Chuck Lofton on vocals, Casey Lipe on saxophone, Regan Taylor
on bass and Gene Moran on drums.
