I like these guys. There's some mighty fine musicianship happening here and some generally great vocals. They play a lot of stuff you don't normally hear bands do and most of it is great to hear. They do some ZZ Top, SRV, Skynyrd, some other southern rock and some obscure yet entertaining blues. Some of it I didn't know but it was still good stuff. They consist of 2 guitars, a bass and drums. The drummer and one of the guitar players do the lion's share of the singing but the other guitar player on the far side does some as well. There is some excellent guitar playing happening with these guys and it's worth the price of admission just to hear some of the lead guitar work! Their only downside is that they don't have much of a show.
Good job to the bass player. It appeared that he must be the newest member of the band but I don't think anyone in the audience knew it.
Again, the "Boom Room" there at Govnor's doesn't help but if you can listen past the endless smear of strange reverberations in the room, you hear some great stuff from these guys. They've been around for quite a while and I really hope they stay around for a long time to come. Definitely check these guys out; especially you guitar players out there. http://www.axegrinder.us/
