Back for another night of shit-kickin’ honky-tonking, ex-Scorcher Ringenberg always delivers a blistering performance to a devoted crowd. He’s a funny, compelling storyteller and often provides a poignant history lesson along with the cornball hokum. The Scorchers reunited for a new album recently but with no new solo releases this should be a romp through his sterling back-catalogue. It looks like he’s left Farmer Jason at home this time so no afternoon kids show for your little Punk Rock Skunks.
