Flashback Party Update – Who Are “Bag Of Donuts?”

Kiss Country's "Flashback Party" is Friday night at Diamond Jacks and obviously we've talked about it for weeks, but you might have one question that keeps nagging you.  "Just who is this band we keep talking about?  Bag of Donuts from New Orleans?

Well, let us introduce you.  Bag of Donuts covers a wide variety of music from the 1960's through today's top of the pop charts, including TV shows, commercials and movies.

They are a New Orleans based quartet known for their wild stage antics, outlandish costumes and strange renditions of popular songs. Since their creation in 1988, they have entertained and "offended" thousands of people by stealing their hearts as well as other peoples’ songs.

Bag of Donuts remain a professional band with an outstanding reputation. They’ve won numerous awards throughout their animated history and perform 100 plus dates a year. In March of 1999, the Donuts released their debut CD "Glazed and Confused." Two years later they released their much-anticipated live CD, "Live in New Orleans," recorded at a sold out show at House of Blues.

The band is made up of four characters: Kevin George is the thunder behind the storm, and has created an ingenious and comical way of utilizing a sample machine in conjunction with his drum kit. Jonathan Hoerner is the Kiss look-alike guitarist who makes sure the crowd doesn't forget the show is about rock and roll. Jerry Christopher, the Joker, adds more antics and jaw-dropping bass playing. Bobby Hoerner, added to the cast of characters in January 2011, has well over 20 years experience as a crowd-pleasing front man.

Tickets are only $15 if you get them HERE in advance of Friday's show.

Oh and YES, they even do some country.  Check out this video of their performance of David Allen Coe's "You Never Even Called Me By My Name."
