Saturday Night @: The Third Chance Lounge Starring: The Fantastic Plastics, Tina Sparkle, Hushdrops & Super 88

by MBIP


Live, from Peoria, Illinois, it’s Saturday Night starring this week’s host, The Third Chance with special musical guest stars, The Fantastic Pastics, Tina Sparkle, Hushdrops and Super 88.

Now, please welcome this week’s host, The Third Chance Lounge!

I thought since we’re going out for a musical evening, I’d just enjoy a frozen pizza at the MBIP World Headquarters before the show.

I got a Patriot Pizza from HyVee and you can watch my pizza review on my You/Tube Channel tomorrow on Tuesday. It should go up around noon. Feel free to subscribe to it, it doesn’t cost anything!

Okay, off to tonight’s show!

Here we are at The Third Chance Lounge off of Willow Knolls Road.

There’s the sign for the show and while I’ve seen all of these bands, I’ve never seen them all play on the same bill and I’m excited for the show this evening! Let’s go inside and start this Saturday night musical adventure!

There’s the bar in the front of the lounge and Jeff is doing double duty tonight by working the door and later singing with his band Super 88! Great to see him as always.

I went in and got a beer from David who was bartending for the evening. So far, so good! Cheers!

Okay, let’s go in to the Third Chance Lounge. There’s a fireplace and lounge area over here in this corner, but all the action will be happening up front where the stage is.

It was a pleasure to run into this quartet of fellows, from left, Derek, Jason, Dustin and Brett.

Derek, Jason and Dustin are podcasters and you can listen to them on Yesterdaze and Drunken Lullabies/Radio Rewind. Brett is a musician and is a member of Brett Conlin & The Midnight Miles.

Great to see and chat with all of them!

And now the crowd surges up to the stage area and it is showtime!

The Fantastic Plastics

The first band performing tonight are the Fantastic Plastics. This is one of the most unique and original musical acts I have ever seen!

They are Miranda Plastic and Tyson Plastic and they put on such a colorful and exciting musical performance! Check them out at their website, facecrack and Twitch.

What a fantastic start to this musical evening at The Third Chance Lounge!

I ran into Craig Moore who has been rehearsing for his show here at The 3300 Event Center next Saturday. The Show is called: “King Of The Whole World - The Music Of Elvis Presley Live.” I’ll be there and hope you can make it too. We might just have a preview of this show on Friday, stay tuned!

Jessica came over to our table to say hi and it was wonderful to see her! Jessica is a fantastic and talented artist and you can read about her and check out her artwork by clicking right here.

Okay, I think it’s time for the second act of the evening!

Tina Sparkle

The next band on the bill is Tina Sparkle. I’ve seen this band many times and they always put on a fabulous show!

Tina Sparkle is: Marsha Setterfiled on lead vocals and guitar, aTomic Setterfielld on drums and vocals and Chris Anderson on bass and vocals. Check them out on bandcamp and facecrack.

Tina Sparkle played a fabulous and rocking set and the crowd loved them!

During the break I got a photo of Matt and Tyson! Great to see both of them!

Now on to the next set of tunes!

——

Hushdrops

Hushdrops was next on the bill and they came out and played a fabulous set of tunes!

Hushdrops are: John San Juan, Joe Camarillo and Jim Shapiro and they tore the roof off of the joint!

You can check out Hushdrops at bandcamp and facecrack.

Here’s a shot of the Third Chance Lounge from the stage area. This is what the bands see!

Okay, time for the final musical act of this fun evening!

Super 88

I’ve seen Super 88 many times and they never fail to rock the house and blow the roof off of the building and tonight was no exception!

It’s a good thing they were the final act, because I don’t know if anyone could have followed them after this killer of a set!

Super 88 is: Jeff Hyde on lead vocals, Dave Moe on guitar, Chris Anderson on bass and vocals and Peter Curse on drums and vocals.

Check them out at bandcamp and facecrack.

Super 88 killed it as always! What a fabulous and exciting night of live music!

Thanks to all four bands for the wonderful music and to everyone who came out and supported this show!
