Sponge Rocks "Rotting Pinata" Rewind Tour

Detroit hit-makers Sponge bring their “Rotting Piñata” Rewind Tour to Marlborough’s The Lazy Dog , performing their breakthrough CD in its entirety on Thursday, August 30.  Advance tickets are $15 ($17 at the door) and available now at etix.com.   Doors are at 7:30 pm and Framingham hair rockers Tester, in addition to locals My New Disaster, The Mercy Case and Tilt-A-Whirl open the show. 

Hailing from Detroit, Sponge gained widespread notoriety with their debut album "Rotting Piñata."  Hits like "Plowed" and "Molly (16 Candles)" fueled massive airplay on commercial radio and were in heavy rotation on MTV. ”Rotting Piñata” was the breakthrough album for Sponge –a band that continues to earn acclaim for their no-holds-bar live shows. 

Sponge has spent the summer bringing their “Rotting Piñata Rewind Tour” to ecstatic fans on both coasts. “These shows give die hard Sponge fans the chance to hear songs that have not been performed live for almost 20 years!" explains Sponge lead singer Vinnie Dombroski.
