The current line-up of Rocket from the Tombs, the punk band that formed in Cleveland in the ’70s and has since reunited, only features two original members. But the group, which plays the Beachland Ballroom tonight, stays true to the punk band’s spirit. You can hear just how good these guys are on a new live album recorded on the last European tour where the band played a small venue in Zurich called the El Lokal on May 22 2012. You can find it here and we imagine the band will have it for sale at tonight’s gig.
