Tucson Adult Entertainment: Mount Lemmon outdoor concerts this summer
… Last year, someone called them Chuck Wagon and the Wheelchairs,” Vining said, and the name stuck. The band will perform at three LAVA shows this summer.
The lineup is full of Arizona musicians who have been around for years.
The Dreadnutts, featuring Peter McLaughlin, Bob Meighan, Earl Edmonson, Kirby Mittelmeier and Brian Davies, will perform in August. Meighan once fronted a band that opened for national acts at the Celebrity Theatre and has played in bands in Tucson and Phoenix. Members of the Dreadnutts have won numerous awards in their careers.
The Kevin Pakulis Band drew a large crowd last year at Mount Lemmon, Vining said, and has a good following in Tucson.
The Last Call Girls, featuring former members of the Mollys, will play on Aug. 22. Crystal Ridge, which will take the stage June 6, was a finalist in the 2008 Telluride Bluegrass Band Contest.
