Retribution Gospel Choir
From Duluth, Minnesota
First Twin Cities show since since February 17, 2006 • First Turf Club show • First headlining show
From last.fm:
Retribution Gospel Choir is an indie rock band based out of Duluth, Minnesota, USA formed in 2007. Current members of the band include, Alan Sparhawk (guitar, vocals, sampler), Steve Garrington (bass), both of whom are also in the band Low, and Eric Pollard (drums, vocals). Despite sharing the majority of their members, RGC's high-energy performance differs greatly from Low's subdued, minimalist feel. Until 2008, Matt Livingston (formerly Low) played bass for the band. Sparhawk's wife Mimi Parker (and also member of Low) appears on vocals on one Retribution Gospel Choir track as well. Read more about Retribution Gospel Choir on Last.fm.
Dance Band
From Minneapolis
First show since since January 26, 2007 • First Turf Club show • Eighth show on MN Live's calendar since July 28, 2006
From last.fm:
Dance Band, the Twin Cities' live act sensation has been making considerable waves in Minneapolis and St. Paul, MN USA during their short existence. Dance Band built up a large amount of local buzz in 2007 due to their energetic, humorous and crowd-controlling concerts. Instrumentally, Dance Band is probably best described as "sci-fi electro funk rock." This matches the band's continuously changing attire, which usually looks like a glorious fusion of form-fitting super hero costumes, 80s-era exercise clothes and... sex.

Big Trouble
From St Paul
First show since since March 22, 2006
From last.fm:
Between 1990 and 1992, one band ruled the hard rock streets of Atlanta, GA… and that band was Big Trouble! Besides opening for such acts as Extreme, Skid Row, Bulletboys, and Jackyl (as well as many more), Big Trouble was selling out shows around the city and Southeast all by themselves. In two short years James Schmitt, Mike Wilkes, Dan Call, and Chuck Strawhand, created a massive fan base and rabid support in the area. Read more about Big Trouble on Last.fm.
