Firefall was a great band and definitely NOT a soft rock band live. They did this as a full blown rocker and a couple of bands I played with used it as a set closer. Killer! The flute was from David Muse. He also played keys. Jock, the lead player still has them going. One of Colorado's all time great bands.
@Horemheb442 - Yes the lead guitar was prominent enough to rock out. Heheh, reminds me of an America concert I went to in the 70's, they jammed "Sandman" for 15 minutes. Do you use the same chords and fingerings? Thanx for listening, hope you enjoyed.
im not sure if it was original members or not.....i really had never heard of them.....we just was tired and was sitting at a free stage that was packed with people they came on and just rocked the joint....i can not remember the song but one guy played the flute and it was amazing.....they all were 1st rate performers and musicians.....and once again nice cover
@MrSmileAtMe - Thanx man! Appreciate the encouragement. I think the lyrics are pretty cool. There is a flute part in it that's really missing in a solo performance..you may not like my version so much after you hear the original..lol.
fine song Brian, and you sing and play it with your heart, great
All the best

@othercousin Actually I am a drummer who sings. So the fingering...well, you know. I did enjoy it, by the way.

@curbshoppin - Cool, all original memebers? I'd love to see them again.
I did my best with a solo arrangement and tried to make it my own without straying to far from the original feel.
Thanx
