Can't help but wonder where they'd be now if all of them had lived...... Tommy was on the same floor that my grandpa was on in Spartanburg Regional (back then it might have been call Spartanburg Memorial, maybe..) after he wrecked his Jeep and was killed. The group never fully recovered from that, and nothing against Doug, but I don't think he should be touring under the same name, because it's not the same band, and hasn't been for 30 years now.
i had the pleasure of knowing tommy personally while serving with him while we were stationed together at sand bay. i was a nco then and i could check tommy out for the week end and we would drive to spartanburg. back then the band was called the toy factory...i still laugh when i remember tommy having the marine haircut until he got on stage...dont know where that wig came from...i was treated like family from everyone God bless them all...cpl ski
Wow do I miss you? Respecting your elders....one of my favorites as well...Toy wrote...AM I THE KIND OF MAN and he writes standing up for what is right! Brought a smile to my face. love you, Ab This was the MTB. - only MTB, I will never forget Toy and Tommy always stopping to talk or sign authographs . Absolutely, and I remember the members that walked pass those fans.! God bless him.
He sounds like a real stand up dude,he did not let the fame and shit get to him,more people need to listen to the man and they might learn something.What a huge talent Toy and Tommy were.
thanks for shareing ! Tommy was the pure sound of the MTB, He sure is missed still, i cant believe that this year will be 30 years that he has passed.
Tommys Bass playing was the true sound of MTB,everytime i listen to MTB, i crank the bass up!
