[izzanuknuk]

ooh mama zetta. you could catch a fish without a hook,light a fire without a match.

[SuperFenderStratman]

great cover I think some of the groove is lost because of how fast this version is but otherwise damn fine!!! PROPS!

I just saw the band last Saturday night (Mar 19, 2011) at Cheli's and they're still smokin'. Tight and hot as ever.

[mplusm1999]

Nothin better than a funky band with horns and a butt-kickin' lead vocal (rhythm section's not shabby either). You go girl!

[mjjcng8958]

[muzikman183]

drummer and the bassist are in the FUCKIN' pocket... geez.....

[jrv7286]

Muzikman, Thanks for stoppin ' by. Hope you'll visit again.

Kathleen

[Kingondahill]

@muzikman183 Pretty moderate in my opinion...especially underneath the first saxsolo...

[muzikman183]

@Kingondahill agreed

[jligroup]

Drummer John Seidnar is right on as usual - impeccable time but groovin and drivin

[jrv7286]

He's great isn't he? Thanks for commenting , hope to see you at a show!

Kathleen

[jligroup]

I have seen you three times! Know Bernie and John from the Filter Kings days. Please book a show at Guy Hollerin's, (Local Blues and Local Brews), so us West siders can see you!

(see their facebook page under 'Local Blues & Local Brews - Root Doctor')

[jrv7286]

I'd love to book that venue.  Any connections there?

[jligroup]

Sorry, no. I have gone to a few shows there but don't know anybody.

WEMU (Eastern Michigan's FM station) hosts, so perhaps contacting either the club or the radio station would work?

[jrv7286]

You never know, I'll give it a shot. Thanks. Don't forget to come back and visit. "See" ya soon.

Kathleen

[dunndebbiedo]

Aren't many bands like this around nowadays. Man, I would die to see them. Last band similar was Heavy Metal Horns. Very nice..and one of my all-time favorite songs!!

[jrv7286]

If you're ever in Detroit stop by a show!

[yourtubesteak]

Caught them by accident after the fifth game of the Stanley Cup finals at the Rochester Mills brewing company. They knocked me out! Going back and bringing some friends to see them on July 17th. Great band!

[jrv7286]

Thank You. Looking forward to the 17th at The Mills. See ya then! Don't forget to come up and say hi!
