Serving Proudly As The Voice Of Valley County Since 1913

Metal Of Nowhere

Jackyl Rocks Glasgow

The first-ever Middle of Nowhere Music Fest rocked Glasgow Aug. 5 with a true rock and roll experience. Jackyl, a Georgia band showcasing hard rock, heavy metal and Southern rock, took the stage at the Valley County Fairgrounds in front of an enthusiastic crowd headbanging and throwing up the sign of the horns.

True to their song, "We're An American Band" the group pounded out their hit songs such as "Down on Me" and "Dirty Little Mind" to a crowd raised on the genre and those who were in attendance to support live music.

The energetic show concluded with the band's most well-know piece, "The Lumberjack," complete with chainsaw, flames and the obligatory stage smash – this time of the chainsaw and flame destroyed bar stool. Pieces of the stool were auctioned off at the Jagertown post-concert show, raising $450 for the local VFW.
