Free Concert Thanksgiving Celebration! with "EGG"
Saturday, November 21st, 2:00pm
http://www.eggmusic.com

"The members of Egg are obviously firm believers in the there's-no-need-to-dumb-it-down school of children's music, and their fantastically fun album proves that parents and kids definitely can rock along together, singing the same lyrics in unison. (We wouldn't be surprised to hear the White Stripes cover "Flip Flops.") Egg may be the quintessence of cross-generational appeal!!!
"CookieMagazine - By Christopher Healy
