Sat. April 7 The Rudds have been responsible for some of the finest club rock in this fair city. Saturday April 7, they bid farewell to guitarist Brett Rosenberg, who's ta king his axe to Nashville (like many a Bostonian before him). The Rudds headline the bill at Johnny D's. The club flagged the show by saying they'd be doing covers from the '70s-'90s, but the Rudds Tony Goddess tells us they'll also "be playing every song of our 'Get Your Femuline On' record including John (Powhita's) tribute to Brett, 'Rock and Roll Napolean.' It's the last song on the record and the one we've never played live. I'm sure we'll hit some covers including some Prince, Hall and Oates, Cheap Trick, Todd Rundgren, the O'Jays, Supremes, Coasters, Gap Band and Madonna.... Also we have a cult legend, Jack O'Hara of Eggs Over Easy opening up. The band started the 'pub rock' scene in the UK in the early '70s and released a classic album for A&M in 1972. Jack will be playing songs from his and the Eggs songbooks as well as probably some Dylan and Jimmy Reed covers." O'Hara takes the stage at 9:45, to be followed by the Rudds. Tickets: $10. 17 Holland St., Somerville, 617-776-2004 johnnyds.com
