At Summerfest, the Stacks Edward Band was chosen to represent the best of Milwaukees blues musicians as the house band during the Battle of the Jammers Competition, a showcase that Stacks Edward won as a vocalist and guitarist the previous year. In 2004, the Stacks Edward Band performed live on WMSE for WMSEs fall pledge drive.

Please join us Friday January 30th, 9:30pm at G Daddy's BBC (Upper Level)
2022 E. North Ave. Milwaukee, WI 53202 414-272-7263 If you have not yet heard the Alpha Transit band, I encourage you to take a listen here: http://www. myspace. com/alphatransit Transit Comes Alive!, the newest addition to the Alpha Transit catalog, is the first of a two part series of releases recorded 100 percent live at the Milwaukee Ale House during the summer of 2008. The titles of these recordings pay tribute to the seemingly distant era when the record buying masses encouraged and supported their favorite groups extending and improvising on their songs in the live jam format. This recording and the soon to be released Made In Milwaukee showcase the group doing what they do best; steering the music through the maps of their unique compositions, fusing white knuckle improvisations with relentless grooves, and taking the entire audience along with them on the mind-boggling journey.

Now everybody have you heard If you're in the game, then the stroke's the word Don't take no rhythm, don't take no style Got a thirst for killin', grab your vile...
You put your right hand out give a firm hand-shake Talk to me about that one big break... Spread your ear-pollution both far and wide... Keep your contributions by your side and stroke me, stroke me Could be a winner boy, you move quite well... You got your number down... Say you're a winner but man you're just a sinner now
You put your left foot out keep it all in place... Work your way right into my case First you try to bed me you make my backbone slide But when you found you bled me-- skip on by... keep on---stroke me, stroke me Give me the business all night long... You're so together boy... Say you're a winner but man you're just a sinner now
Better listen now (said) it ain't no joke Let your conscience fail ya, just do the stroke Don'tcha take no chances keep your eye on top Do your fancy dances you can't stop you just stroke me, stroke me
