There's a lot of incorrect info about this band. It's what's called a track band. Owned by Perfect World Entertainment. PWE has at least 20 cover track bands. More than one Spazmatic band. Thats how they cover different areas of the country. Musicians are great musicians and put on a hell of a show. I love watching them but as a musician I am always aware of all the extra tracks that they are playing along with. Keyboards, backing vocals, percussion etc. Bigger sound. Fewer to pay. Entertaining!

I saw them last night and they were amazing. and they didn't fake a note!!!!

Let the Haters Hate: the Spazmatics can friggin wail anybody who has a negative opinion is only jealous of the mad skillz

Believe me the guitarist is not faking. He is superb. I once heard him play Paganini on the guitar, I know, I'm his mom. If it can be played, he can play it.

I saw them about 2 months ago with my cousin and family when i visited and omg it was such an amazing night!! THEY ROCK!!!

These guys get paid $7,500.00 per show??? 8.0 Fort Worth makes about 40k on a night when their in town. Not my cup of tea....nowadays you got to have a schtick it seems
-
i know for a fact that the guitarist is not faking.He's my uncle and he also played for David Lee Roth right before Van Halen got back together.

@fretpresser Is there a member of the band named "nobody" ?
. stand closer to the stage next time. listen...watch..compare.., Where did the guitarist get his magical fiddleguitar for Come on Eileen?
Which one of them is hitting those high vocal notes on Don't Stop Believing?
They're fine, except for the fact that the guitar players are faking it, & the keyboards and backing vocals are pre-recorded. Other than that, a crack band....
Seriously, an 80s cover band without a keyboardist?!?

Are you in a band yourself?

I know a lot of there stuff is prerecorded vocals and stuff especially Journey's - Don't Stop Believing, But they still have a great crowd going and crack everybody up and everyones having a good time.
