"Modern Day Cowboy" in HD - Tesla 5/14/11 M3 Festival in Columbia, MD

[onetime504]

They sound awesome to me!

[ejaamy]

Have seen Tesla 4 times over the years...Everything from opening for Def Leppard in '88 to a headlining a small club in CT. Great show every time and they never dissapoint.

[LASERMAX73]

Tesla never change, Hair never cut, AWESOME.

[xSovietProbex]

i have seen tesla 3 times, 2008 and twice in 2011. needless to say I will continue to see them. Jeff keith as well as the rest of Tesla still kicks ass. My favorite band, truly a powerful band and underrated. Yes Jeff cant hit the high notes like when he was 19, hes also had throat surgery. if you dont like it no one is forcing you to go to live shows. True fans go for the experience and to help preserve the legend of these great bands.

@xSovietProbex I saw Tesla in 1988 at the Salem Armory in Oregon. Dangerous Toys opened for them. I got right up to the stage and it was one of the most mind blowing shows I ever saw. I wish they would come back to Portland.

[amyntut]

If your a true fan you don't mind how they look now !

[FirebrandNIRE]

Awesomeness!!

[mattallica464]

let off the vocal pitch shifter and just go with it as is.

[molmaggie]

Oh, and I forgot, out of the original 5 members, only 1 guy is different. What's that say about Tesla still kicking ass?

[molmaggie]

I don't know what some of the clowns are listening to that have replied to the vocals getting bad but out of them all, Jeff Keith has STILL got the voice and Tesla still plays the truest to their studio albums of ANY 80's hair band out there! Keep rockin' TESLA!!!

[GORDITO1000]

Should have never have cut my hair. It would be down to the floor by 2011....SWEET!

80's on.....

[dozerman8114]

Not to bad for a bunch of old dudes, like myself.

[80SorNUTHIN]

Man, I don't know..........I pretty much only listen to 80s hair metal. But the time gap from then to now is getting too wide for them to keep doing this live without getting ridiculed. This music isn't the same as the 60's doo-wop stuff I keep seeing original performers still doing on telethons. This stuff was hard as hell to sing, tough on voices, and common sense would tell you a person wouldn 't sing that way forever. Hate to say it, but the live shows should end soon.

[chrisnuma6]

Ick. Eric Cartman on lead vocals. What a shame.

So tough to watch these great old singers (Jeff Keith, David Coverdale, Sebastian Bach, etc.) struggle like this.

[caputo1000]

@chrisnuma6 i agree, jeff keith said he wasn't struggling on vocals on That metal show on vh1 classic. he says hes trying to preserve his voice. im not sure i believe it.

[XtremeCam]

Great video, this would've been worth going up to Maryland from North Carolina if I knew about it.

[tjcoffey]

You know, it sounds great, but it's down a full step from the original so JK can sing it. He's not straining like he was for the past few years. That's what happens when you tour constantly, smoke, and do whatever.

Still, I love Tesla.

[shmoeman]

@tjcoffey And the biological fact that your voice gets deeper for men the older they get.

[MrDcramblette]

TESLA ROCKS!!!



[TheIrishman10000]

Excellent performance.

[jrnoslo]

Great video! Tesla rules!!! They are all great guys, and still sound incredible! Frank is a god on guitar!

[johnchevy1]

my god tesla was sooooooo good and i agree they were the best at M3

[Drfeelgood37239]

I was there and every band sounded amazing haha tesla started playing this song by announcing that it was on guitar hero 6 haha

[Alset4ever]

Moved those "hair bands" and their tired music over; their DADDIES came to town :) Certainly the only ones rocking new tunes too!! NOBODY does it like Tesla live.. If you love em, share em...buy the new CD this summer, and 5 more to give as gifts. Then if you missed this, get your ass to a SHOW. Still touring....Love you TESLA!! Most of all for the hardworking, honest, loving, dedicated fathers that you are.

[skinsn8tion]

Damn...I should've gone to this show. 

[hennyiii]

Excellent ,, thanks for sharing..In my opinion they were better than whitesnake..

[bighairaddict]

Tesla still rocking after all these years. Have to say that after viewing a bunch of the bands from this festival, that Tesla sounds the best. Also, nibbanafamily, great videos! What did you shoot all these with?
