  • Date of Concert: July 28, 2023

     My girlfriend Mariah (@deathbytango) and I saw the phenomenal Grand Funk Railroad last night in Akron, Ohio. This was my 3rd time seeing them and her 2nd. This is a band we’ve been able to bond over.
     I love that founding members Don Brewer (drums, vocals) and Mel Schacher (bass) are still there. And one of our favorite guitarists, Bruce Kulick, has been in the band almost 25 years now.
     Phenomenal band. Great albums and songs. You can’t go wrong. We had a great time!
