Dog Leg Preacher sets J.R. Phinnickeys on Fire

Last Thursday night Dog Leg Preacher took to the stage for the first with their newly signed guitarist Marcelo Portaro. This show was incredible. Having only one week to learn the material Marcelo pulled off all of the tunes without a hitch. Joe Kurkes vocals and bass playing were par excel lance, and The groove laid down by Jon Fosdick was as solid as the Great Pyramid at Giza. Marcelo's red hot lead guitar ignited the conflagration during his rendition of little wing. A performance that mesmerized the crowd, and literally brought tears to the eyes of all those who remember Jimi and Stevie. Dog Leg Preacher will be doing this all over again at J.R. Phinnickeys next thursday May 29th, as well as in Algona on Sat May 31st at the Royal Bear.

Dog Leg Preacher gets another article

This one was written up by the Arlington times. A newspaper based in Arlington WA.

Sarah Arney 23.APR.08
Featuring the master mind of John Fosdick, Dog Leg Preacher will be performing Saturday, April 26, at the Spar Tree in Granite Falls.
A classic rock cover band, DLP offers an explosive new style of old-school rock and roll. They performed at Lake Steven’s Aquafest in 2006.
Fosdick wrote all the material on the self-titled first album, collaborating with Captain Joe Kurke who created vocals reminiscent of bands like AC/DC and Motley Crue. Fosdick provides the drum cadence for Kurke’s bass playing.
These two have played together for many years and are able to combine their individual artistic abilities well.
Kurke achieves the exact vocal sound Fosdick was searching for when Dog Leg Preacher was in its earliest stages.
As a virtual band on line, these two guys received airplay world-wide including Australia, Italy, France, Netherlands and on the East Coast of the United States.
“Reviewers chewed it up and spit out raves about the style and production of this musical work.”
The newest addition to DLP is Chris Moser, a long-time acquaintance of Fosdick, an ex-Army Ranger and a former resident of Arlington who now lives in Kent.
An accomplished writer himself, Moser assumed the role of rhythm guitar with shared lead and vocals. He assimilated easily and quickly into the group, drawing on years of guitar playing to pick up and recreate DLP’s sound.
He is looking forward to having an audience at the Spar Tree.
“It will be great to see a lot of familiar faces in the crowd.”
In the last six months, DLP has moved from a virtual band to a full-blown group of veteran musicians who share the same enthusiasm as Fosdick and Kurke for this great music.
The Spar Tree is located at 106 West Stanley St. in downtown Granite Falls.
This is a small venue and seating is limited so get there early for a place to sit.
Additionally Dog Leg Preacher will be performing at the ABATE of Washington Spring Opener this year, from 7 to 9 p.m., Friday, June 13.
“This is the biggest and baddest of biker parties in the state, to be held in Toppenish.
Advance tickets can be purchased at www.springopener.com.
The show starts at 9 p.m. with the opening band, Newton’s Law. - The Weekender

Benefit Poker run for Dragoni

Well the poker run for Dutch Phillips went very well. We all helped to raise copious quantities of cash to help Dutch with his medical bills and general survival during his time of hardship. Dutch is a great friend and supporter of Dog Leg Preacher, as well as Abate of Washington, Biker freindly bar .com and Quick throttle magazine. We would like to thank him personally for all of the help he has provided us with in the past. We wish him a speedy recovery. We are always looking forward to working with Dutch. Dog Leg Preacher would also like to personally thank, Dr Dave from Arrowood Productions, Kenny from the Cedarwood, Terry from Whiskey Creek, and the guys from the band La Grange for helping us pull this off. For those of you who only know Dr Dave as a promoter let us tell you, this guy can sing and play guitar as well. This was a real good time for all of us who performed there. Last but not least a very special thanks to, Flagman, Tony, and Trike Mike for getting this whole thing set up.
