EVENT BIOGRAPHIES
We thank the following entertainers for coming onboard this patriotic event:
Foghat
CHARLIE HUNN
He can’t remember, but they say he used to play records all day long at three years old. So maybe that is why piano lessons began at 4. His mom wanted a concert pianist virtuoso, but after eight years of piano and singing in school, his perfect pitch developed along with a hungry urge to play guitar like the rock and roll bands burning up the Top 40. With the onset of bands such as Cream, Jimi Hendrix and the heavy British Blues filtering through, it was time to get it on. By the age of eighteen, Charlie was fronting his own project covering the heavy stuff like Zeppelin, Johnny Winter, Rory Gallagher and Savoy Brown, and around this time, as fate would have it, members of Savoy Brown were splintering off and forming what would become one of the most successful and iconic rock bands of the seventies,...Foghat.

ROGER EARL
Roger Earl is the man with the beat. Pounding his drums for over 40 years, this British rock ‘n’roller is partial to rock & blues (always has been).
Born in England on May 16, 1946 Roger grew up in Hounslow (West London). Music was always encouraged in the Earl household. Small living room with a BIG piano. In the mid fifties, Dad introduced Roger to ‘Great Balls of Fire’ by Jerry Lee Lewis and the house was never the same. "Dad played piano somewhat in the style of Fats Waller but a bit heavier handed (wonder where I got it from???)." He later took Roger & brother Colin to see Jerry Lee around 1960 and it all began. Roger wanted to play Piano, but as it was usually occupied by Dad or Colin he started taking drum lessons at 13, for about 2 years. He bought his first Premier (Black Pearl) drum kit at 15 by saving money from after school part-time jobs.
