Damn it, I am GOING to make this Band some Fans around here, cause they're AWESOME ...

I mean ... for reals ... these dudes can freakin' put it down ...






For those who's tastes are a bit more retro ... this could've been a #1 hit in 1973 ...

They are awesome! Lead singer is fantastic. Heck, all of it is fantastic! I grew up in San Francisco in the 60s. I would have totally been a fan of them at The Filmore!

Probably my favorite place to see anyone, esp. if you get there early enough for a balcony seat

I have a small stack of posters ... you probably know the ones ...

Check out the tune of theirs I just posted in this group 'Fade Away' ... it's super retro ... and awesome.

They're great live performers, and seriously, they really don't have a bad song. A few I like less than others but there's at least 20 of their songs I think are amazing.

2015's Men Amongst Mountains ... Every single song is very good to great. It's a Tour de Force. And their newer one Take Good Care is only slightly less amazing.
