Armed -N- Dangerous
Around the Monroe area for over 31 years we mix several genres together for all to dance and enjoy! November 1992 founding member Gary Stump leaves the band.
Monroe's Armed n Dangerous have been rock and rolling for over 31 years. Founders Norm Braden (bass), Pete Estes (lead and rhythm) and Gary Stump (drums) started in 1989. They played several gigs around the area that year and built a following that has stayed true to this day. Spring of 1990 - Pete left the band and by summer Art (Richie) Richards was brought in to play lead guitar. October 1990

Throwback Thursday to January of 1991!!
33 years ago we debuted at the Riverfront Lounge the 16th, 17th and 18th and right back two weeks later (Jan 31st, Feb 1st and 2nd).
Not too shabby for a young band that had only been together since October of 1990! Three months of hard garage practice had us sharp as a tack and we were eager to get out and show our stuff...
February '91 was also busy with us booking into the Whistlestop Bar and then a one nighter at REGAL HALL in March.
Y'all remember the Regal Hall gig?

January 18th, 1991
Armed n Dangerous played our first official gig at what was then the Riverfront Lounge!
A 5 piece band with a new lead singer that wasn't even old enough to be in the bar.
We stayed a 5 piece till summer 1993.

We can't thank the CmC enough for having us last night! We're so proud to have played for 26 consecutive Officer's Parties and look forward to many more.
We hope everyone had as much fun as us, we haven't seen that many people packed up in the clubhouse in a long, long time.
We're so blessed to have been able to see so many smiles!
Here's a clip from the second set opener! It was surprising to see so many horns up in the air! I think it's a keeper!

I'm blown away by the costumes tonight. Yall were in the spirit and dressed to kill.
We loved the effort everyone put in to their outfits and seen so many smiles!!!!
We truly hope you enjoyed the night. The new material we played went over well and the guys played like beasts. I listened in awe to them all night. They were on point.
Looking at you boys and girls reminded me of the old Halloween gigs and it really filled my soul....
