For fans of Rustic Overtones, July 27, 2007 was a day they never thought would come.
The hard-hitting, show-stopping, horn-powered rock band had broken up five years before, going out with a spectacular three-hour performance at the State Theater in their hometown of Portland, Maine. Two thousand fans filed into the night afterwards, exhilarated yet downcast as witnesses to the swan song of one of the best bands ever to emerge from their state.
Then this past summer, an even greater crowd of 6,000 assembled in downtown Portland, on Monument Square, as the hiatus ended and Rustic Overtones heralded its return with a dramatic show executed on the rooftop of WCYY Radio. The Portland Press-Herald covered the concert with an appropriate mix of just-the-facts reportage and barely contained excitement: In perhaps the most highly anticipated event in local rock history, enthused Patrick Doyle, Rustic Overtones, Maines groundbreaking rock group, has reunited.
This show presented at the Montgomery Theatre (Morse High School) 826 High Street, Bath, Maine.
This is a band that has bucked the odds to come back from a premature demise, with a strength and depth that, frankly, has surprised even its own members.
