What happened to Jeff Ward Band? They've pulled the biggest crowds in years past!!!

Who's Jeff Ward? Radioactive Squirrels just got picked to open for Dread Zeppelin with Styx, Los Lonely Boys and Blue Oyster Cult at the Rockford "On The Waterfront" festival. The Squirrels are calling it quits after 5 years and their last show is Aug 2nd at Cooler Near The Lake. They do the Doors and Rolling Stones better than anyone I've ever seen (including the tribute bands). There will be a big loss when these guys break up.
