New Venue – Throwback Bar and Grill

GREETINGS ROCK FANS! Your favorite band is jamming out in a new venue! Throwback Bar and Grill in Crete, IL is hosting 6ix 5ive 9ine for a night of kick ass rock and roll on Saturday May 21st, 2022. Show starts at 8pm

Come on out to Crete and help us blow the roof out! The address is 25940 South Dixie Highway, Crete IL. It’s just north of Balmoral Race. See you there, and ROCK ON!

Back in Business!

First Gig of 2021 @ Knuckleheads in Michigan City on May 8th

Ladies and Gentlemen, the hiatus is over. Beginning May 8th, 6ix 5ive 9ine is back in business, and playing out! Two shows for ’21 have been added to the calendar. May 8th at Knuckleheads in Michigan City and September 18th in Lowell for the Lowell Fire Department’s annual Fall Flannel Fest! I have a sneaky suspicion that we may see a Bearski’s and a Johnny’s gig show up on that list before too long.

You may not have seen us out in the bar scene, rockin’ the house down for quite some time, but don’t think we’ve been sitting idle during our break. Nope, we’ve been working on a ton of new material to mix in the set list. So come out to Michigan City in May, and check out all the new tunes we’ve been learning. Come out to Freedom Park in Lowell this September and rock out with us while supporting the Lowell Fire Department. Keep an eye on our upcoming events page, and we’ll see you soon!

Don’t Eat Bats

As Ozzy Osbourne pointed out to us long ago, biting bats = bad news.

Once again, that equation holds true. Someone licked an airborne rodent, and now we have bad news. That bad news is that our April shows have been cancelled. Our next show on the books is June 6th at Johnny’s Tap in Munster. We sure as hell hope things will be back to normal by then and we’ll all be ready to shake the walls down with some high energy rock!

See you soon, stay safe, and don’t eat bats.

New Venue – Johnny’s Tap in Munster

This just in! 6ix 5ive 9ine just picked up 2 gigs at a new location!
Say hello to Johnny’s Tap in Munster, IN! Located just north of Community Hospital on Calumet Ave. We’re playing there on Saturday October 27th and Saturday December 8th, both from 8pm to 11pm.

What’s that? You can’t wait that long to come rock out with you’re favorite band? Good news! We’re playing Knuckleheads in Michigan City on Saturday August 25th from 9pm to 1am. We have a whole slew of new tunes we’ve been cooking up and we’re going to unleash them on the world at Knuckleheads! Come on down, party, drink, dance and rock out with 6ix 5ive 9ine! See you there!

Cancellation!

canceled-showWhat’s up rockers! Due to a clerical error, we will NOT be playing Knuckleheads on November 13th. Instead, you can catch us there on Friday, January 22nd.

I know there were a lot of people planning on heading out to Michigan City to catch this show, and we sincerely apologize for the mix-up. We hope you’ll be able to make it out to party with us in January instead.

On a completely useless and unrelated note, the word canceled starts to look really weird after you’ve spent a few minutes researching whether it should contain one ‘L’ or two. As it turns out, the correct spelling depends on what country you’re in (except the word cancellation always has 2 L’s), and both variations are acceptable in the United States. However, that does not make the word look any less ridiculous after you’ve seen it spelled out a few dozen times.

We Heard You Missed Us!

2015-09-19 - hunleys flyerThank you to everyone who rocked out with us at Knuckleheads! We were even asked to play 2 encores by a party crowd that wasn’t ready to call it quits! You guys were a killer crowd, and we love you for it!

So I hope everybody is ready to pack the house and rock the rafters at Hunley’s in Cedar Lake coming up Saturday September 19th, ’cause we sure are! Come on out and show ’em how a 6ix 5ive 9ine crowd can party! We’ve always had such fun playing that place, and we’re looking forward to doing it again. See you there!
