Dr. Feelgood

Dr. Feelgood is a very underrated rock band (and a very overrated Motley Crue song) that has been tearing up the live scene since the 1970s. Catching a recent show of theirs only last year, it’s apparent that the band hasn’t lost anything.

Their music is typical late ‘60s rock, mixed with a little blues. If you could take the Stones and Zeppelin and roll them into one, while shaving ZZ Top’s beards, you’d have Dr. Feelgood, and their name is truly apt, as that’s exactly how you feel while at their show: Good.

Many of today’s shows have fire and smoke and flickering lights, but Dr. Feelgood’s live set is just a few stage lights highlighting the band members, and all four members playing the same music they’ve been playing for decades. Though with new band members over the years, even the same songs aren’t the “same.”

They’re classified as “pub rock,” but they have much more of a bluesy look and feel when they play. They have the energy of a legit hard rock band, and that certainly carries over to the audience. If anything’s “pub” about a Dr. Feelgood show at all, it’s that the atmosphere is usually that up-close and personal. They don’t play many huge arenas. You can find them doing smaller concert halls with tracks that fill up the space well, such as “Hoochie Coochie Man” and “Going Back Home.”

We saw Feelgood at the barn behind the square. Professionally presented by Chris the patron and his team. We missed the first 5 minutes of thr show but the first set was excellent and the band thumped out hits from my youth it was amazing. After the break again the whole set was just like the tunes I grew up with but I'm afraid no one can substitute Wilko Johnson but that's being picky and the lead guitarist was excellent. A wonderful evening in great surrounding s well worth ticket money. Well done Feelgood and thank you Chris

Absolutely brilliant..slick, high energy with great vocals and the guitarist is a genius. Small venue so we were close to the stage so felt like a local gig but with a class act playing. Really friendly band too. Highly recommended if you love like music with any guitar, bass and drums!

Good show, good rolling rock n roll in the spirit of Canned heat and Taj Mahal, 'dust my broom, route 66, with 3 or four numbers from the original lineup, including an excellent version of "She does it right"

It was an absolutely amazing concert. rock and roll will never die. all the performers was fantastic but the guitarist and the singer was amazing. Me and my wife passed perfectly.
