Kryptonite Bar (308 West State Street, Rockford, IL)
It's been a while since their last gig and could use a little support so come on down to Kryptonite and do a little pre-Christmas celebrating with them!!!!
I dunno why y'all have to dog Nielsen on here - this was not a serious gig, and he improvised and noodled along with a song he's done forever. Was gracious of him to even get on stage with amateurs.
hot video! my names Anna, kinda feelin bored if any1 wants to join me on cam or wana chat i will be signed on at __ FriendlyFlirts(.COM) __ my user ID there is Anna_ngkpuvbatlam chat soon xx its FR33 to j0in! mwah
Great band, but you realize how utterly inimitable Robin Zander is. He's got a tonality that can't be duplicated. This guy comes pretty close, but just close enough to point to what an asset Robin is. And Bun E, something about his snare. Imitation is a great form of flattery--and in this case, makes me happy to have seen the boys so many times.
Must be tough for Rick to make it thru a song with just one pick!

I would love to know what was going through Rick's mind seeing his own band recreated from 30+ years ago.

He does look like him! I think if he played a gold top Les Paul he would also look just like Gary Richrath!

It sounds like Nelson killed this song.Not it in a good way. Almost like he was playing some other song.

Its his song so if he wants to fuck it up its totally up to him, and the singer isn't good, but nobody commented on that.

I agree. There's a gutteral urgency in Robin's voice that no one but Robin can tap.
This is cool, though. :)
