[jlkbbk2003]

Man, he was little old to be pretending to be Geoff Tate....how come we always have to "copy" someone? Just make your own name....even in '89

[ebealienhead]

hi jlkbbk2003 ! actually the singer changed his look for every show...this night he looked "Tate-ish"...but not all the time...

[stemz420]

very old school!!! cool song! very maiden-ish solo!!

[ebealienhead]

thank you stemz420 ! love Maiden!

[AndreasBusshart]

Dave yes to METAL I enjoyed this video you guys sounded great [Freddie]

[ebealienhead]

thank you AndreasBusshart ! we had fun making music...

[pestilence]

Great stuff Dave. I think in the future you can play for us "Black Sky" in a solo way with your red V our with any of your gibson´s. Is good to see you again! Hug

[ebealienhead]

thank you pestilence ! thats a possibility...i could play along to the mp3...

[MonsterZeroo]

Nice...I had a Charvel red v...about then. Wish I had it now...CHEERS!

[ebealienhead]

thank you MonsterZeroo !

[3Hectors]

Damn - I used to love the catclub - thanks for flashback!

[ebealienhead]

thanks 3Hectors ! glad you enjoyed it!

[SkinsDeep]

Great song, tight band, loved it! Hey, you should have fed that kid some Melba toast before you dragged him to a jig...ha!

[ebealienhead]

thank you SkinsDeep !

[ScottishThunderNick]

can you please post some videos of ur old band with decent quality sound. Just i couldnt hear them much, hope you had a awsome 1989 was a good year :)

[ebealienhead]

hi ScottishThunderNick ! sorry man, this quailty is as good as it gets...it was shot 20 years ago on tape...i wish it was todays technology...

[OzzmanX30]

your 2 months are up,so new vid!!!!! lol cant get enough of ur stuff

[ebealienhead]

thanks OzzmanX30 ! i should have something up very soon...stay tuned!

[lanemergess]

So cool that you have archival footage Dave. Excellent group of guys, and that drummer was very solid. Working with great drummers has always benefited my playing. In my opinion, any band starts with a solid beat keeper, and the rest is just frosting on the cake.  peace, apb

[ebealienhead]

thanks APB! yes, this drummer was totally killer...still is...nice to walk down memory lane!

[ebealienhead]

thank you John! this was a fun time...

[stary12]

hey! theres that flying V with the kahler haha ur awesome!

[ebealienhead]

thank you stary12 ! yes, i'm gonna bring it out of retirement soon...

[SkidRoses98]

GREAT! You guys were good. Are you guys still in contact? Nice one.

[ebealienhead]

thank you SkidRoses98 ! yes, i stay in touch with a couple of them...more to come later

[Smokeater68]

Excellent Dave! I remember those days..a little anyway LOL. Your old singer kind of reminds me of the singer from Queensryche back then.

[ebealienhead]

thanks mike! these were fun times indeed...

[Jaypeef]

you havn't aged a bit.

[ebealienhead]

thank you Jaypeef ! well a little...but thanks!

[GuitarzFromMarz]

Dave your singer reminds me of some early Geoof Tate of Queensryche!!!! I hope that is a compliment!

[ebealienhead]

thank you GuitarzFromMarz ! it most certainly is!

[gennaro1980]

Yes! 5 stars because of the mullets.

[ebealienhead]

thank you gennaro1980 !

[LeopardJoy]

This is priceless, Dave. Wish I could have seen you...and the drummer...more. But it was just the angle shooting from the floor from basically one spot. You're lucky you have this though. Looking kinda Slashy there...not looking LIKE Slash...but just the mannerisms, the stance or something. Everyone is very cool...loved the fog...and the V! :) Resurrect that baby so we can really see what she can do, okay?

Best,

Joy

[ebealienhead]

thanks very much Joy! yes, i'm lucky indeed to have this for memories, but i wish i was in it more too! Slash mannerisms? cool! the V will make a debut in the future...i have to dust her off, restring, and clean her up a bit, but she still kicks azzz! thanks so much for watching!

[KevyNova]

I love it! Totally 80's!

This is actually a decent song. Did you have a hand in writing it?

I have some videos of a band that I had playing in '92. I would love to post some but I need to figure out how to convert it first.

[ebealienhead]

thanks so much KevyNova ! i didn't write on this one but we all had a hand in arranging...

i'll post a couple of my tunes (that the others helped write as well)later...thanks for watching!

[KevyNova]

You gotta let me know when you do, I love hearing original music more than anything else and I'd love to hear yours.

[valgrathblak]

My very favourite kind of music!!!!! Power and melody!

[ebealienhead]

thank you valgrathblak !

[SIXSTRING63]

Great stuff Dave ! Nice harmony work . I have some 20 year old stuff kicking around on VHS somewhere , this has made me want to dig it up and post it. Mike 5*****

[ebealienhead]

thanks mike! go for it!

[TigerBlaze07]

[firefighter5278]

Come on man,you were hesitant about this while the whole music industry has been feeding us with crap labeled as great hits?This is inspired and original,too bad you didn't have the breaks (?) to keep it up.I would give anything to hear this in better quality though.You wouldn't happen to have a demo or something to upload?Oh,don't forget,five stars !

[ebealienhead]

thanks firefighter5278 ! i may post the song from the demo another time...glad you liked !

[LeftHandedJay]

dude , nice . I see in it some ,not straight influence , but definately some ''colors'' from a band or two that i really love and respect ! No need to say who they are cause comparing SUCKS , but whatever , i enjoyed listening to this vid , like all your videos , 5 starz

[ebealienhead]

thank you LeftHandedJay ! this was a great band to play with...

[StowBurst]

Hey man,

[ebealienhead]

BIG had just played their...very famous NYC club, sadly gone now...i have an mp3 of it...i may post a sub shoutout and use it in the clip.

[2usename]

[naujcdl]

Dave,

As always, rock on!

Great job, even as a video the sound of those guitars must have been awesome!

Good job.

[ebealienhead]

thanks so much naujcdl ! yes, we were really rocking the place...THE CAT CLUB was a regular stop for many recording acts (did you see Faith No More played the night before us?)...the P.A. was amazing...the video does not do it justice...we were F(_)cking loud!

[TodayAt420]

good stuff, ive been coming on this site for 3 years, and your the only one ive ever subscribed too, i like to see real musicians, like you, not all the "your such a noob" kinds ragging on people cause they think thier so damn cool

[ebealienhead]

thanks so much TodayAt420 ! you have to be humble...i do what i do on here and i'm so flattered people like it...i see people on here i think are way better than myself get torn to shreds for no reason...people can be really mean spirited and thats a shame...i thank you for your support!

[TodayAt420]

yep, couldnt have said it better, keep rockin!

[BeboAltizer]

[Ozzwald99]

Great stuff Dave!

Pity you're not more visible in the clip.

Great energy though man.

And wow, I noticed D:A:D on that bill poster! Awesome band...they would have been touring their "No Fuel Left For The Pilgrims" album.....one of the great rock albums of all time imho.

Thanks for the blast from the past mate. Hope you're keeping well brother!

[ebealienhead]

thanks OZZ! unnfortunately this has the most of me in it....the camera man didn't move around too much...but he got what he got and i'm grateful to him (thanks Al!)

[popstotexas]

Nice Dave, reminds me of my youth back when.

[marillionforever]

Realy nice man..!

But is it you to the left?

if its is you, are you playing a Yamaha sg 2000?

I buyed one back in 1979.

Steve Rothery played it some years to.

I remember when he signed mine back in 1984.

Good times... ;)

[ebealienhead]

thanks marillionforever ! no, i'm on the left with the Ibanez V...i have a DVD (script for a jesters tears tour)where Steve plays the Yamaha...awesome by the way! i LOVE Marillion!

he signed it for you??? now thats awesome! i think he is truly underrated...he has written some of the best music ever in my opinion...

[sunhouse76]
