Invasion of 70’s Captured Brilliantly by Astroglyde
Astroglyde, featuring Dave Schulz
(English Beat, Goo Goo
Dolls) recently performed three outstanding shows as part of their July residency
at Club XES. Schulz founded the All-Star membership of Astroglyde as a fun side project that pays tribute to the
70’s with a combination of a soulful vibe enhanced with an incredible funk that
creates the formula for a sensual rock extravaganza party called Swank. Astroglyde attracts an A-List crowd, and you never know who
will show up at their shows or what surprises there are in store as far as who
might drop in to perform. On Astroglyde’s
second show on July 20th celebrity actress/model and television host
Shannon Malone was in attendance along with the legendary guitar player C. C. DeVille (Poison). DeVille
is scheduled to play with Astroglyde at a near future
date.

All-Star lineup of several touring musicians from various bands such as Goo Goo Dolls, Bo Diddley, Thomas Dolby, Poison, David Bowie, Billy Idol,
Macy Gray, Quincy Jones, English Beat, Christina Aguilera, Edgar Winter, Rod

partner in C. O. Jones Productions (that’s producing Swank) is also playing in
the band, and Phil Solem (Rembrandts) will also be dropping in to play

“Friends.”)
