Here are pictures from Friday (May 27), the first night of the kickoff weekend of the PA Roundhouse Rally Summer Series 2022 at Roundhouse Harley-Davidson near Duncansville.
Five bands performed during the entire two-day event, with Friday featuring a 1980’s music doubleheader. Giants Of Science kicked off with their celebration of ‘80s-era rock and pop. The cast of ringleader Mick, Johnny 5, Scotty B and Steve quickly had folks dancing in front of the stage with ‘80s favorites from Gary Numan, Greg Kihn Band, Simple Minds, Men At Work, Modern English, Soft Cell, Men Without Hats, Billy Idol and more. Toward the end of their performance, the Giants welcomed up guest Shannan to sing lead on Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin.’” Hair Force One then followed with their ‘80s hair band party, rocking the Roundhouse with numbers from Motley Crue, WASP, Def Leppard, Poison, Ratt, Guns N’Roses, Kix, Ugly Kid Joe, Twisted Sister, Bon Jovi and more. Singer Victor Synn, guitarists Michael J. Cox and Milo Nuttz, bassist Peter Fitzwell and drummer Shawn Toppuver kept the rocking energy high from start to end, resulting in a packed dance floor for the duration of their performance. Pictured are both bands, the audiences, sights around the Roundhouse Rally grounds including the outdoor bar with a member of the International Bikini Team, some shots of a rainbow that showed up after a brief late afternoon shower, and two former Q94 Calendar Girls who showed up for the fun, Stephanie (from the 2003 calendar) and Melissa (from the 2004 calendar). Good times!
