BlueStone Ivory will be taking their Rock-N-Soul, Rhythm-N-Roll to downtown Montgomery this Saturday night. This is our first time at Carlo & Johnny and hope it will not be the last.
If you want top notch food...especially steak, you can't find a better restaurant than Carlo & Johnny. Unless you are dining at one of Jeff Ruby's other steak houses. However this Saturday we will be at 9769 Montgomery Road in the heart of downtown Montgomery. It doesn't get much better than this. Carlo & Johnny and BSI.
The festivities begin at 9:00 pm and we will be playing till 1:00 am. If you plan on coming for dinner you can arrive anytime after 5:00 pm. They serve dinner till 11:00 pm. We suggest you call ahead for reservations 936-8600.
Wait...there's more. How about a little BSI nostalgia?
Many of you have heard us talk about the old days of the original BlueStone Ivory playing at Riverfront Stadium after a Cincinnati Reds Game. Well, I found a photo of "Sound On Stage" the name we went by just before we became BlueStone Ivory actually performing at Riverfront Stadium. Check it out. What do you all think? Comments at the end of this post are welcome.
There we are in our very stylish (pink) salmon colored corduroy vest suits and green paisley silk shirts. And check out our hair. We all had long hair then.
Here is a closeup of Me "Gary" toting our green paisley shirt and vest suit. This was a long time ago. I was around 18 years old then.
Yes, that is Gary Rossignol. Actually my hair was quite short at the time. Eventually I grew it shoulder length. I was proud of those side burns though. Aren't those shirts hideous?
All I can say is...it's a good thing we sounded good. And that we did.

Awesome pictures - I like it. Are there anymore 'early BSI pictures'? Just one correction - that's Riverfront Stadium - not Riverfront Coliseum

Ahhhh! The good old days! My son had an outfit in those same colors and he thought he was so cool! I agree with Carol...let us see more of those early days of the band even though the band members have changed thru the years. You could dedicate a section of the Website's Photo Album to that era. I'm always checking it out. Looking forward to Saturday night so I can see and hear the best band around town. I'm eagerly awaiting delivery of the DVD from the Greenhills Concert on the Green 2006...I have '07 and '08. Perfect "at home" entertainment on snowy days and nights when BSI isn't playing "live" somewhere. See you all on the 31st. Carol S.
