Full Vinyl is the series in which musicians who play the Rockwood get together late at night and cover songs according to a theme. Tonight the theme is The Billboard Top 100 of 1983. Why that year? Just look at some of the songs from way back then:
Every Breath You Take
Billie Jean
Flashdance… What A Feeling
Down Under
Beat It
Total Eclipse Of The Heart
Maneater
Maniac
Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)
Full Vinyl is always a fun show for the audience and the musicians. In addition, The Rockwood usually offers a drink special or two during Full Vinyl. Tony Maceli is the ring leader and ring master of Full Vinyl. For tonight, he has rounded up the following musicians to play and sing:
