I Closed My Eyes,I Took A Drink...

 

The last time I'd seen the Tygers was at a 3500

sold out Hammersmith Odeon way back in

the early 80's.And here we are again at another 

sold out London gig,150 people,how times have changed.

BUT,that did not stop them putting on an amazing show

of quality,top notch songs.

Each song starting off with a great Riff as only

Rob Weir can do and they played us

some newer songs,to show us they are not

just doing the nostalgia trip like a few

bands I could mention...Everyone here tonight

old and young thoroughly enjoyed this

and jeez it was loud!...Enjoy,Ed.

Scratch My Itch...

 

As I have said before I like to get to the

venues early to catch support bands

and after doing my Spotify homework

this band stood out.They play that 80's Sleaze Rock

which really does put a smile

on my face.Played at 100mph with guitar solo's

all over the place.They definitely gained some new

fans over tonight...hopefully one for the future...

Enjoy,Ed.

KISS Doin' a Soundcheck Sometime Before a

Concert in Santiago, Chile in 1994...

A Wide Range of Cover Songs Are Played...

Most Are Just Snippets or Excerpts, Etc...

Rangin' From 30 Seconds to a Couple Minutes...

Good Soundboard Quality...

Also, There's Not One, But Two Introductions...

Enjoy and Play It LOUD!

Lester Has an ACE Up His Sleeve...

 

Something Wicked This Way Comes Is The Title of

A Great Book by Ray Bradbury from 1962...

Something Wicked This Way Comes Is Also

The Title of This CD (EP) from 1998...

This Is One For KISS Kollectors ONLY...

'Cause It Features Ron LeeJack...

From Wicked Lester...

No Paul Or Gene...

But, ACE Makes an Appearance, Barely...

He Plays on the Last Track, Which Is an

Instrumental, And Barely Over a Minute Long!?!

(Two Other Tracks Are Essentially Instrumentals as well...)

Oh! And They Recorded the Wicked Lester / KISS Song: She...

Also It Was Produced by Author / Musician / Ace's Friend:

Gordon G.G. Gebert, Who Was Also a Member of ANGEL

At One Point...

This Is One of Those Things Probably ONLY of Interest to

KISS Fans ONLY!

(Did I Already Say That,  Already?)

I Can Almost Taste It...

 Alright it's Christmas Time once again

so here's a KISSmas treat!

From the Animalize Tour.

Bruce Kulick has replaced the unfortunate

no luck Mark St.John.

I saw this Tour but there was some debate as to whether 

it was Kulick or St.John on stage.

(Of course it was Bruce)

This was before the internet,news was kinda slow.

St.John was in the Tourbook so what was going on?

It all calmed down and Bruce stayed a team player

until the reunion came around.

So it's a high energy show from '85

where they played as if it was a race to get to

the end of the song!

AH...good times.

Riding The Air Waves...

 

Now for something a bit different...way back in the 90's

Headswim released a brilliant song

"Tourniquet" which I played to death

and that was it.I heard nothing about them 

until about 6 months ago when some fans

set up a Facebook page that grew so much

the band got back together for a one off performance.

And here it is...Jeez,The Underworld was packed

and you would never of guessed the band had

not played live for nearly 20 years.

A bit more Grunge than I would usually go 

for just watching the reactions from the 

crowd was worth the ticket price alone

(fans even came from the USA)...

Great Night...Enjoy,Ed.

No Regrets And These Cassettes Are Never Running Down...

 

Now like most of us here I am quite open minded

when it comes to music.I am always looking for something 

different with the exception of Grime,Drill & Modern Rap.

I will give anything a listen to hence the inclusion

of LeBrock,SYNTHWAVE is a genre I have always

had a soft spot for.Taking me back to the 80's

theme tunes for all the best Films & TV Series

and when you include some great guitar 

playing I am hooked.

Even without a drummer or keyboard player

(just vocals,guitar & bass).

The sound coming from a fecking computer I can 

forgive within this genre

because the songs are so catchy and it works.

Also the crowd lap it up which adds

to a great atmosphere...AND I was

not the oldest here tonight which made

me feel good...HA!

Enjoy,Ed.

Don't Stand In My Way...

 Eddie's had a busy time this year,gig going.

Here he is again sharing his recordings.

With Us!!

Now Symphonic Metal has never been my thang

aside from Within Temptation

but I do quite like the band Leave's Eyes

who Elina also sings with.

So I thought I would jog along and break my 

symphonic virginity.I was pleasantly surprised,

some really good songs with exceptional vocals.

As you would expect from those classically trained singers.

Not the biggest of crowds but those there seemed to

enjoy...myself?...not sure I will be rushing back

but Hey Ho an OK night was had.

Enjoy,Ed.

Now You're Messin' With A ...

 Here's one I bought from a show when I went to see

Nazareth a few years ago now.

Great band and a fine show.

Unfortunately 3/4 of the classic

line up have now departed.

But the music lives on.

Enjoy.

Might As Well...

 I love the original Van Halen.

I like Van Halen with Sammy Hagar.

To me they just became another good Hard Rock band.

Even though they were successful with Sammy

it didn't really float my boat.

Sure I bought the albums and enjoyed the hits.

But I can't say when I'm looking for something to 

play I don't rush to pull out a Van Hagar record.

(Although I might now that I've listened to this,lol).

So here they are at the Selland Arena,Fresno back in 1992.
