ROCK | The Tombstone Hands 

The Tombstone Hands is a slow churn of rock 'n' roll burn dedicated to preserving the rock of ages. The trio plays like it's the last garage band on Earth, always kicking it off with Link Wray's "Rumble," in honor of the man who first revved up his electric guitar. Established in 2009, The Tombstone Hands is Steve Litvak on guitars; Dennis Jones on bass; and drummer Brian Peet. After Jones rejoined the group last year, The Tombstone Hands has re-emerged from the crypt to perform its own rendition of instrumental garage punk influenced by eras gone by.

The Tombstone Hands performs with American Acid and The Keelers on Wednesday, November 22, at Rosen Krown, 875 Monroe Avenue. 8 p.m. $5. 270-5869; reverbnation.com/thetombstonehands.
