oh WOW!...one of those weird things that pop into my mind..I wonder if there are any 805 videos @ youtube....lo & behold!!!...LOVED these guys...would go see 'em EVERY time they came to the Albany area...Hullabaloo, Tigers, JB Scotts, Allen's...Frank Briggs was one of my favorite drummers..right up there with the Bru'...did sound for a band called Chrysalis and we did some gigs with them out in Syracuse....rock on boys!
I booked these guys for The Skyway in Scotia, NY back in the day when i was active up there as a promoter and performer. Way ahead of their time for sure.
Saw them twice in '82 / '83 at the Hullabaloo in Rensselaer. The drumming of Frank Briggs was mesmerizing and the band was tight. Also, the venue was great. The waitresses used to smash the empty beer bottles in the trash barrel apparently to save space. Scared the s#*t out of me the first time.
@guitarace66 Forgot to add, Dave Porter (singer) and guitarist Kelley Wilcox from Cold Sweat are together as The KDB with a robot (Bob the gay robot) doing some covers still in the Syracuse, Rochester area. Once in a while they will make a trip to Albany. Please come back Dave.
Boy I miss these guys too. I loved their Genesis sets. I checked them out in Albany, NY area back in the day at Tiger's (now Northern Lights), JB Scott's Theatre and the now defunct Saratoga Winners.
awesome. I love this song. Wish I could get the C.D., but It's out of print.
