FlipSide - "Good Time Oldies Rock & Roll"
Boise's FlipSide, ( previously JTB), is a fun, rockin', "oldies" band. The group specializes in "good time" rock & roll; reminiscent of the 1960's & 70's. All members are of an age that allows them to say, "We play the music that we grew up with".
"People enjoy our music as much as we enjoy playing for them". That's a combination that equals a "good time" for all.
FlipSide "Good Time Oldies Rock & Roll"
this is about 4 years old but still true:
Once upon a time…. One Thursday, windy night in midApril, we were sitting down and drinking beer with Vern, Nikolai and others and talking, dreaming about warmer weather.
Suddenly Vern said: "Barb it is too long to wait for the end of September for Oktoberfest! Let’s do something during summer." That was the day that Mocktober fest idea was conceived. About a week later we sat down and talked about it in detail: what to serve, who is arranging what. We chose May 31st for the “HAPPENED” day. The rest is history. And this year we will make new history. Barbara & Tom.
