A Word from Josh: Hello-o-o-o!!! Test for echo... echo... echo...!!! Hey, remember us? Well, apparently many of you do as we were welcomed back after 48 days away from the stage by a great crowd at the Badger Bowl. The time away from the spotlight was not a vacation, but rather a chance to focus on reinventing ourselves a bit. We rehearsed several times which enabled us to debut many new songs tonight as well as bringing a couple of old songs out of retirement, hopefully giving the show a fresh feel to our most devoted fans. We also tweaked our image with a new logo, new posters and a redesigned website (thanks for noticing). We plan to unveil a few more surprises next week in Waukesha. Anyway, it was great to get back in front of the people and we had a blast. It was reassuring to see that our brand of 80s rock still draws plenty of hot babes. Clearly we'd be insane to alter our musical format, but it was fun to try a few new things including what John referred to as "Old school metal" like Iron Maiden and Judas Priest. We also put together a "teaser" medley of some of the greatest hard rock riffs of all time. The crowd stayed strong to the end which was a good indication that we are doing something right. --Josh Were you at this show? Would you like to comment on it? Paul: "Dude, awesome show, these dudes kick ass!! Can't wait to see them again!" NegaJim: "What an awesome show! What a great new logo! What a slightly improved site! Can't wait for the new shirts! Kick-ass!!!" Jewelz: "Great show guys. I've never been up to Madtown to see you guys play so I took this opportunity to take a road trip. Lots of new songs, but still the same awesome band with lots of energy. And as always lots and lots of wonderful friends (Kat, My dancing bud Jody, Maria, Greg) to party with. Glad I made the trip even if the weather was a bit unfriendly. See you guys next week back on home turf! Oh and thanks to Josh for getting me unlost! :)" animalien: "AWESOME SHOW!

Bittersweeteus: "Friday night was phenominal! All your hard work in the last month and a half showed that you outdid yourselves. The bands performance was flawless and the arrangements of songs, old and new, were surprisingly great! And John, you are still looking great and you haven't lost that strong and sexy vitality that you use to entice and captivate the audience. I'm glad I was there to participate and to enjoy the night of your strong comeback." Jessy: "It was an awsome show, I am glad that I got to go!! I love the new songs and look forward to seeing more..." Paul: "Shane nice pic on page 3, your hair looks "sassy"!!!!!!" |
