Babyshaker The Charlotte rock outfit will go on a brief hiatus after this show due to a “maternity leave” for one of the band members — he’s becoming a dad. So, get on out and soak up every bit you can … Singer Scott Weaver is sure to unleash his inner rock god, not knowing when he’ll get the next chance to. And the best part, it’s free!

Terrible name for a band. I keep thinking of shaken baby syndrome.
It’s a shame that anyone would support this group! They give rock a bad rep with their name!
This is not an amusing choice of names, it is quite ignorant actually. Get a clue people.
Wow! What a horrible name! I agree. What are you thinking with a name like that!!!?
i agree. no one should ever listen to a rock band with a controversial name. wait, what?
Hi! This is Scott from Babyshaker. I would like to thank you for your support and great sense of humor. Especially to the person who made the comment about us giving rock a bad rep. You guys are awesome!
And for the record, none of you have supported us anyway (obviously) ’cause you make it clear that it’s the first time you have heard our name. And we are not ignorant. At all. We happen to be 30-somethings with college degrees and successful business who have toured and played shows with some incredible rock icons. But you wouldn’t know that, because, clearly, you are all too busy sitting around passing judgement. And we are actually nice people who have friends with kids, and one band member is going to be a father soon. I really great one.
You all take things too seriously and act like rock-n-roll is supposed to safe, humorless and unchallenging. Well, it’s not. And we will continue to do what we do, with or without your approval.
Rock on prudes.
Scott…BABYSHAKER
And for the record, the band in the video is not even us.
Not sure what happened with the YouTube post… A new video has been posted.
