Bang Tango In Chicago singer falls ill, fan sings 11/25/09

Bang Tango arrived and was scheduled to play the Portage Theater in Chicago last night (Black Wednesday) but early in the night a Ambulance took Lead singer Joe Leste to Resurrection Hospital With what was said to be a stroke. The show's promoter called Chicago's Veilside to fill in, but as they arrived the remaining members of Bang Tango encountered a Uber Fan in the audience named TJ, who sang in a cover band. The band took the stage with the fan handling Lead Vocals, and might I say WELL! This TJ kid sang a short 5-6 song set off the top of his head and took every opportunity in between songs to thank the band and send his concerns to Joe at one point saying "I feel like Mark Wallberg, just with a better band".

holy shit man that had to be a fun night for that dude and he actually sounded really good

[DIZZYNBEE]

how cool that the band said WTF and let the guy sing and even cooler that he sang great!

[DjJtown]

Killer night....I think....kinda fuzzy, REALLY fuzzy. This guy did one hell of a job and fit right in. About his pants, SFW! He came to watch and ended up performing. In my opinion it's about the R&R attitude and ability and NOT about the clothes.
