Usually bands like that end up playing at small County Fairs or town "Ribfests" over the 4th of July holiday, which is good for them because they get a whole new generation who can enjoy their music.; January 16, 2009 at 7:13 PM

ME, that's because of your deal with the devil.

I know Trick has done that, so hopefully some of the young dudes and chicks will dig the old stuff.

tom, he left right after the follow up to Dudes came out to do Bad Company. These guys deserve many more accolades than they generally get.; January 17, 2009 at 9:41 AM
