Plant-eating dinosaurs did not eat grass, because there wasn't any, so it is thought. During the Mesozoic Era, when the dinosaurs lived, conifers - cone-bearing trees and shrubs - dominated the landscape. They included redwoods, yews, pines, palms, cypress and the monkey puzzle tree. Flowering plants and grass evolved only later.
By the way, a plant does not look like its parents, but will always resemble its grandparents
Phil Dirt and the Dozers in Concert at Melvin Miller Park
To join PHIL DIRT & THE DOZERS on the ultimate musical journey in Melvin Miller Park on June 28th, 2008 at 7:00 pm. Come travel back to a time when life was more simple . . . the world a bit smaller . . . and the cost of a new Chevy was about $2000.00. A time when poodle skirts, saddle shoes and the corner drug store were all a part of everyday life. Seem like a long time ago? It really doesn't have to!
PHIL DIRT & THE DOZERS . . . America’s premiere "Rock 'N R'oldies" review (and the most popular vintage rock and roll show in the nation) will help you recapture those wonderful days! With their musical talent, high energy and contagious sense of humor, Phil Dirt & The Dozers will transport you to another time and place . . . namely, the 50's, 60's, and 70's of Rock and Roll!
Imagine hearing The Four Seasons' Sherry with the original falsetto vocals intact . . . or the hauntingly beautiful Righteous Brothers' Unchained Melody or their You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling or the beautiful ballads of Roy Orbison including Pretty Woman and In Dreams. Party on the beach with The Beach Boys and Jan and Dean. And imagine the Platters' soul-stirring Only You performed with all the scratches and skips found on a well-worn 33 1/3 record, the way The Dozers first learned it! The Phil Dirt Time Machine also stops in the ‘70's, where you’ll experience some of this decade’s greatest hits including those from the Doobie Brothers, Grand Funk Railroad, The Eagles and even the O'Jays.
The PHIL DIRT & THE DOZERS' nostalgia show encompasses three decades of great music . . . and is performed absolutely live with a sophisticated yet light-hearted approach that creates an atmosphere all age ranges will enjoy. And here’s the reasons why . . .
Steve will captivate you with his beautiful voice as well as his ability to emulate famous voices of the era as he guides you on your nostalgic journey through the 50's, 60's, and 70's; Mark, (a two-time Emmy award winner) will energize you with his dynamic keyboard, saxophone and flute work; Tony (Icepick), who is likely to trigger a standing ovation with his “gorgeous” vocal talents, will also electrify you with his guitar work; Hadden, another guitar virtuoso will shake the house with his fantastic bass and baritone voice; Tony M, will get your heart pounding to the rhythm of his wonderful percussions; and Craig, whose bass provides the pulse, will enthrall you with his guitar work and vocal abilities. This is an amazingly talented group of musicians, yet very humble, professional . . . and, oh yes, charming!
