Just saw the new video for Solar Fire. I don't remember the first couple singles, but this tune is awesome. They have kind of a Coverdale/Hughes thing going on.

 That song wouldn't sound out of place on a Winery Dogs album.

I couldn't make it through the first Winery Dogs album. I couldn't make it through the first two S/K singles. But this song is great.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

 What bothers you about those bands, is it Kotzen's voice?

I'm just not a fan of that style of music. I find it highly generic and not all that interesting. I don't love Kotzen's voice, but then again, I can't stand Chris Cornell either.

I'm just saying that I really enjoyed the Solar Fire video for what it was.

Just released the EP Better Days, with 4 more rocker new songs. Each one of them really should have been in the album IMO.

I have a ticket for one of these shows next week. Should be fun if I can make it. The omicron thing is really frustrating. But fingers crossed the show doesnt get canceled like The Dead Daisies one did (same venue) here.

 The first show was supposed to be on the 15th, and was cancelled for reasons beyond the band's control - most likely covid. The next one is on the 20th.

So unbelievably jealous. Really hope they do a bigger tour at some point. I would not miss this. Watching Adrian play is always a pleasure.

Pardon the interruption, but I just had to run in and celebrate the majesty of Lube in the Face as highest moment in roulette history

Cool! What else did they play, aside from Wasted Years and their own songs?
