I was able to catch their set at the NAMM JAM this past weekend. Pretty solid, the band sounded great that night, i had no idea what to expect. People seemed very excited to see Jake back in action!

Some of it was OK, but "OK" isn't good enough when I have so much other stuff to listen to...

This is a popular release over at hardrockin80s.com. I agree with the consensus that the music is good but the singer not so much. If it were the other way around I would probably go to the RI show just to see them do some Badlands and Ozzy tracks.

Cool feature where Jake talks about how the touring setlist is made up of "one portion Badlands, one portion RDC, and then a very small portion of Ozzy...."

I was at that show at the Hawthorne. Almost didn't go because I was jet-lagged from returning from overseas, but really glad I did. Chas had some trouble with Dreams In The Dark, but other than that thought he did a fine job. Was a good show.

I saw one of the first shows w Shawn, in Poughkeepsie, and it was pretty great; hard to replace Ray (impossible?), Shawn was not always spot on, but I was happy when I left.
