Fredericton's '70's music scene had Freightliner Fever. Combining elements of rock with a love for roots music, the band rolled through everything from Conway to Zappa and the fans just couldn't get enough!
​
The original line-up featured Tom Blizzard on drums, Pete Palmer on bass, Dave Palmer on lead guitar, Rollie Waddingham on vocals, Cedric Bidlake on pedal steel and Stewart MacDougall on keyboards. The boys haven't cooled down much since their final gig at the Hilltop in 1978 - each one goin' his own way to radio, stage, song writing and studio.
After 50 years off the road (save for a sold out performance at the Harvest Festival in 2008), The Freightliners are back for one last run/last set/last call/last dance/last time...

It's gonna be one of those nights!
