GALA 2009
After more than two decades
of bringing audiences to their feet, the band LIQUID PLEASURE, has become a
multi-cultural icon. Even from the beginning and through the present,
LIQUID
PLEASURE has never desired to follow the dream path of most bands. That is,
being a major recording entity. Sometimes when they are traveling on the
road, the guys get in a nostalgic mood, remembering the times past. "When we
were still playing the college circuit heavily, with groups like Hootie and
The Blowfish and REM,. The Spinners were even scheduled to warm up for us
once", said veteran member, Melvin Farrington. Although, in 1981, when they
did record an album, the band immediately focused back on what had been
their mainstay from the beginning, the dance and show circuit. This band of
guys who have been like brothers, love being in touch with people like them,
who love a variety of good music, and appreciate hearing it performed live,
by a great dance and show band. In the early years the band was paired with
greats like, Chuck Berry, Eddie Floyd and Ben E. King and later, Whitney
Houston, The Four Tops, The Tempations and Aretha Franklin. Definitively,
LIQUID PLEASURE has always been a hot ticket! I doubt if they realized that
they were growing up with people who would remain loyal fans for years to
come.
The fans that grew up with The
Temptations, The Four Tops, Aretha Franklin and LIQUID PLEASURE, are now in
charge of corporate America. When they want to be reminded of better times,
they party with LIQUID PLEASURE. Kenny's wisecracks and comedy along with
mesmerizing choreography are synchronized with the band's great blend of
music.
The reward for their patience has been
great! LIQUID PLEASURE has set a new standard. With no album high on the
charts to boost them, LIQUID PLEASURE is a marketing phenomenon. By word of
mouth only, they are the most accomplished band in their circuit. They
performed for former President Bill Clinton's Inaugural Ball and that of
current North Carolina Governor, Mike Easley. The RAVENS Football team, had
a Super Bowl blast in 2000 with LIQUID PLEASURE at the helm! They are the
regular choice for entertainment at the PANTHER's house. I'll bet the
HORNETS basketball team even credit LIQUID PLEASURE with making their day in
the 2000 and 2001 NBA finals. Without a doubt, HURRICANES 2001 New Year's
Eve party, was one to remember! Sports, Corporate, Private, and just about
any other venue are no challenge for LIQUID PLEASURE.
