Hank Williams III coming to Hell's Kitchen

By Michael Swan on May 13, 2010

CONCERT ALERT >>>

If you don't wanna lose sight of country music as it gets gobbled up in NASCAR nouveau riche redneck culture, then you'd better check out country legacy Hank Williams III when Mike Thrasher Presents brings him to Hell's Kitchen Sunday, June 20. Williams plays country music so sweet and pure you'll wanna cry. He also plays a second set of punk (borderline metal) that'll really give you something to cry about.

If you're keeping a scorecard (and you should be if you're bringing the parental units), his current tour has Son of Son of Hank splitting the night between straight-up country and western (first set) and flat-out punk-metal (second).

Send ma and pa home early. Williams and his band Assjack mean it, man.

Tickets will go on sale Saturday, May 22 through TicketsWest.
