Gordon Souley’s Birthday Bash This Saturday at Cahootenanny’s

When: Saturday, October 2nd

Where: Cahootenanny’s, Walnut St., Johnson City, TN

Who: Third Leg and New Disease

Time: 10:30

Cost: $3

(Johnson City, TN) Cahootenanny’s presents a dynamic twin bill this Saturday, October 2nd with Third Leg and New Disease. A special night of music starting at 10:30 and cost of admission is $3. 18 and over are permitted with photo I.D.

In case you haven’t heard, punk rock is alive and well in Tennessee. Coming off a year of solid playing and touring, Third Leg is back in Johnson City for the first time since July. The band traveled to New York City and all points in between, taking their music and revival-like stage show on the road. What did the band learn from their travels?

"We can rock anybody, anywhere," remarked lead singer, Gordon Souley, via phone from his Johnson City home. "We played to a lot of different kinds of people in a lot of different kinds of places. We played to a mostly middle-aged black and Hispanic crowd in Brooklyn and we played to an all ages punk crowd in Westchester. Each town and crowd was unique, but everybody seemed to know and get into where we were coming from. We met a lot of good people and were able to get out a lot of CD’s. I think it paid off to go. We have definitely set a foundation to go back. I think people appreciate that we are a rock and roll band."

Call it punk, alternative, or whatever label that one may put on it, Third Leg is true, get up and have a good time, knock down the establishment, rock and roll. Along with several songs with themes such as mental illness, domestic abuse and politics, Third leg can’t hide the religious overtones set mainly by Souley, but respected by his bandmates.

"My band understands Souley and I am careful with what I say and do. I do not mean to make fun of Christianity by no means. It is a big part of my life and I feel I can express it in a way that most people can relate too and feel good about. We are not a Christian rock band and we do not try to pretend that we are. I think people see where we are coming from and regardless, I feel the message is sincere and leaves a good impression on people. People refer to me as the Reverend Souley, but I would never call myself by that title. It does not make me mad, it is all in fun. If the message can make people at least stop and think for a moment, whether it be our government, religion, whatever, at least they are thinking and making up there own minds."

Saturday’s show will be a special night for Gordon and he has put himself on a birthday party to celebrate what he calls one more year into the oblivion and the unknown. He chose the opening band, New Disease, personally to help him celebrate the day in style.

"New Disease is possibly my favorite band on any level right now," said Souley. "I feel that they really have a chance to make it. They are young, very talented and they work hard. You can not help but have a good time when you are watching them. They are all good guys. I got to see them grow up and it does not surprise me to see how talented they have turned out."

Souley is referring to brothers Joe and Wes Tarleton of New Disease, sons of Scullsoup drummer, Chris "Tiretool" Tarleton. Their cousin, Jody Tarlton, on guitar and lead vocals fronts new Disease.

"I know that myself, as well as the rest of the Leg are pumped to be back home to play for our friends. We are looking forward to meeting a lot of knew people, wherever theroad takes us."
