SUMMER JAM II BLACKMAIL

Blackmail is no stranger when it comes to playing Shiley Acres. In the early days of Shiley Acres, Blackmail graced the stage there on more than one occasion and rocked the crowds with their own style of rock and roll. After the closing of Shileys, Blackmail also disbanded and it was actually the opening of Shileys that brought Blackmail back together as a band. When Greg Shiley decided to reopen Shiley Acres after over a decade of it's closing, he called several of the former bands that had played their in the early days, asking about the possibility of a reunion show to dedicate the reopening of the venue. Blackmail was very much interested in playing Shiley Acres again, and the band members came back together for the rededication of this east coast venue. Playing songs for their fans from the early days, and a mixture of new music they had begun to work on, They opened Shileys with bands like the KIX.The rest, is history.
