Wow! You guys are great! Hairy, you really surprised me with your vocal ability. Just completely and totally awesome.

Thanks BBO. I have this Gene Simmons/Danny Joe Brown gravel thing in my voice for sure. I never have claimed to BE a singer, I just give it a go and hope no one starts bleeding out the ears.

Other songs I sing, or have sang before:

Are You Gonna Go My Way from Lenny Kravitz
Gel from Collective Soul
Rock and Roll All Night and Detroit Rock City from Kiss
Beer Drinkers and Hell Raisers from ZZ Top (Split vocals with bass player)
Wanted Dead or Alive from Bon Jovi (Split vocals with bass player)
Born to be Wild from Steppenwolf
Shot in the Dark from Ozzy Osbourne
Knockin at Your Back Door from Deep Purple

That is what I remember.

I can TOTALLY hear the Kravis and ZZ Top in your voice.

Shoot. There's a song I'm trying to think of that I can hear you singing. It's RIGHT there. Like a funky Blues tune/Claptan-like. Wait...not sure...Ugh! I hate when that happens!

Here is one of us playing a medley with The Zoo, from The Scorpions and Roadhouse Blues from The Doors.

Keep em coming bro...thoroughly enjoyed that

. Synchronised band mates, excellent chops all around, drinking while playing the drums (now that IS cool) and you reach for a drink at the very end. Perfect

Even when I am only drinking coffee or water.

And when we could smoke in the bars still...........look out Bun E.

Fun stuff!

One can tell by the sound that Marn is behind the PA speakers. Pretty drum-heavy.

But that has nothing to do with the performance, which demonstrates yet again that you guys rock.

Fun mouth-box guitar stuff too!

Heh.. and some one-handed playing by Leon!

For what it's worth here's the remainder of the clip I posted earlier. Youtube only accepts 100mb uploads so next time I'll lower the frame rate and take Hairy's advice for hopefully a better quality offering.

This is our work in progress revamp of an old track, working title: 'you gave us all a scare' (from the first line of the song) and it's rather pleasant... if you could get to hear decent audio that is

.
I chose it as it's one of our more accessible chunes but the next clip will probably be something faster and heavier so as to show the true side of 'HusK'

But ya gotta move the camera ever so slightly so your face isn't right behind that cymbal.

What? and have the chick stampede ruin the song?

There is method to my madness dear Kares

I still like it.

Question, are your cymbals on shock springs, or are they mounted normally? They have a unnatural looking wobble to them after you hit them.

Ha! So does my girlfriend! Weird.

--------------------------------------------------

Leon, my town needs a good, solidly talented classic rock band like yours. We'd keep ya busy and paid and we'd all have something rockin' to do on the weekends. BTW, I really enjoyed the latest vid. She got right up in there, didn't she? Great cover of The Zoo!

---------------------------------------------------

Ogg, you guys look very cool rockin' out your originals, but I can't discern the music on that latest vid. It's probably my melted eardrums from 30 years in front of amps and the vid-cam's tortured mic. Still, I'd love to hear a studio recorded rocker from you, as I can see your man's cool chord changes and the way you make intricate drumming look easy. I'm going to watch again. Any viable bass players in your area?

Man... you gotta love those PRS guitars. Almost as much as Carvins!

I didn't notice the cymbal thing that Leon was talking about. I'm going to have to watch it again...

GREAT stuff, guys! Wow. I really liked it.

Hilarious your interaction with that guy in stage, Hairy. Love the tune too, the way you did it. Let it roll baby roll! (bad drummer joke)

Ogg, is it my speakers (or my ears

) but I had a lot of trouble hearing the guitar and vocals on that clip. I loved that (off) beat, though. Really nice.

I didn't see the cymbal problem either, Elfie. Oh no wait. I got it. It was still in front of Ogg's face!!
