Grand Funk
Railroad to
Perform
At its sweat-dripping best, the
legendary rock band Grand Funk
emits a surging, elemental blast of
hard rock heat. Now you can enjoy
this hard rock explosion when Grand
Funk Railroad rolls into Chinook
Winds Casino on Feb. 8 and 9.
Originally formed in Flint, Mich.,
in 1969, the band enjoyed mega-hits
such as “We’re An American Band,”
“I'm Your Captain/Closer to Home,”
“Locomotion,” and “Some Kind of
Wonderful” that still receive continuous
airplay on classic rock radio. Legend
has it that Prince named his first
rock band Grand Central as a nod to
Grand Funk.
Grand Funk has toured the world
and can claim that its performance at
New York’s Shea Stadium, in 1971,
sold out faster than The Beatles. The
group’s widespread appeal also is
evident in its considerable recording
achievements. Over its career, Grand
Funk has had 19 charted singles, eight
Top 40 hits, and two No. 1 singles

February 2002
Grand Funk Railroad
(“We’re An American Band” and
“Locomotion,” both selling more than
1 million each). The group has 12 gold
and 10 platinum records, with record
sales in excess of 25 million worldwide.
The current group includes original
founding members Don Brewer (vocals
and drums, writer and singer of the hit,
“We re An American Band”) and
bassist Mel Schacher. Their all-star cast
includes singer Max Carl (38 Special,
Jack Mack and the Heart Attack), lead
guitarist Bruce Kulick (12 years with
KISS and credits with Michael Bolton,
Meatloaf, and Billy Squire) and
keyboardist Tim Cashion (Bob Seger
and Robert Palmer).
Re-forming in 2000, Brewer and
Schacher have created a dynamic and
multi-talented five-piece band that
will not only carry on the tradition of
Grand Funk hits, but also has the
potential to create a new chapter in
the legacy of Grand Funk Railroad.
Don’t miss the opportunity to see
this legendary band at its hard rocking
best at Chinook Winds on Feb. 8 and
9. The show is at 8 p.m. each night,
with ticket prices ranging from $25
to $40, depending on seat location.
