On Fri Oct 27, EPPY Presents: THE DICTATORS with a Special Guest appearance by original bassist, MARK MENDOZA (Twisted Sister) plus opening act The Hasbros happening at Roslyn’s Cellar 1221 Old Northern Blvd, Roslyn, NY 11576.
Legendary NY punk rock band The Dictators have been making kick ass music for 50 years!
“…one of the finest and most influential proto-punk bands to walk the earth.” John Dougan
After the release of live record Viva Dictators in 2005 and Every Day is Saturday, a compilation of outtakes and demos in 2008 the group took a break from 2009 until 2020 when unfinished Dictators business put Ross the Boss and Andy Shernoff back in touch. Ross suggested they put the band back together. Andy agreed but on one condition; that long time friend and collaborator Albert Bouchard (Blue Oyster Cult) fill the drummer’s seat. Albert enthusiastically agreed and suggested Keith Roth (Sirius XM DJ/Frankenstein 3000) to fill the empty singer/guitar player slot. The revived band has released 3 songs, God Damn New York, Let’s Get The Band Back Together and Festivus which carry on the tongue in cheek humor, social commentary and high energy associated with The Dictators.
