Went to a Def Leppard concert with Damn Yankees opening for them long time ago. I am Def Leppard"s greatest fan and to see Tommy, Ted and Jack was unbelivable! I teleported back to the 80's, it was so great!!
I saw this same tour in Northern Kentucky around the same time as this video, and if they would have played this song I probably would have had to change my pants. I LOVE Damn Yankees!
Tommy & Jack are brothers from different mothers. Their two voices were just meant to sing together! Oh how I long for a full Danm Yanks reunion and new album! C'mon Uncle Ted...get yer ass outta the tree stand and get the boys back together!
Just check "Damn Yankees: Rock in America" video and compare it with the original version by Night Ranger. You'll see the huge technical differences between Ted and Brad-Jeff. Don't get me wrong here: I also like Damn Yankees but downplaying Brad Gillis and now Joel Hoekstra's playing in comparison to Ted's are just not appropriate.
@chreene@trey8047 You guys gotta be kidding! Brad Gillis is a legendary guitarist! He was picked by Ozzy after Randy's death & his tremolo techniques hv inspired and learnt by hundreds of thousands guitarists ard the world. As a guitarist for 28 years, I dare to say that Brad Gillis' & Joel Hoekstra's technicality are 1000 X above Ted Nugent. Of course, Brad played the solo his way not Ted's. There's a big difference btween technical virtuosity and a rumble of distorted notes that Ted played.
@TheWidiarto I love Brad And Joel There badass!! but i just like how ted did it better, thats all. i met joel a couple of years ago, he's a cool ass dude and wonderful guitar player
@TommyShawRox Oh Thanks for the info. I have a bunch of good ones from Ozzy and Slash this past friday night in Vegas and none will upload I keep getting failed aborted and they won't finish. :-(
@TommyShawRox It is but I'll check again. I've tried for 2 days using my Firefox and Internet Explorer it's weird. I thought maybe cause I was uploading so many at once and I tried one at a time and still fails. But I'll try again later. Thanks!
i was there, it was a great concert! damn yankees, four bands for the price of three. LOL. this is a great video btw. great appearance by martina, and brad p also during reo's set.
Damn Yankees was a fantastic band. Shame they do not get back together and tour.
