      Cover bands are great because they respect the originals. When was the last time you saw a cover band for any of the little boy/girl pop garbage?

      @@DirectDemocrat I am a professional musician and have played this many times (amongst other SD songs). They're doing an ok job, but there are quite a few mistakes and, no, this is not down to their interpretation: there are wrong notes and mis-timed drum beats. Not many, granted, but they do stand out like sore thumbs...to me, anyway. I'm not runing them down, but I really couldn't say that they've 'nailed it' or 'killed it', especially given that they appear to be an SD tribute band judging by their name.

      @@novakingood3788 Considering it's a live performance, the musicianship is damn good, even with an audible glitch or two. But, yes, I have my own 'sore thumb' moment - the harmonies. It's not like they're off-key; they're simply singing an incorrect, simplified version of the original. The actual harmonies are not overly difficult to sing, but you have to know the correct parts. That's the problem with musicians - we know what's going on under the hood and spot details others miss. But I still really enjoy this band's stuff.

    The guitars are the stars here, and I can appreciate how the gal with the tambourine played straight hand struck quarter notes without holding the thing close to any mic, and no other empty handed performer was issued a "party favor". The video lost sync badly in the middle but thankfully got back in toward the end, and so overall I enjoyed this very much, top quality cover.

    Hey Chris, great camera work on the guitar solos. My wife and I were lucky enough to see Skunk and Denny play those twin-lead guitar harmonies when the Pretzel Logic Tour played the U. of Toledo on April 21, 1974. I'll bet the originator of those solos, Elliott Randall, is well aware of Hank Easton's amazing guitar skills.
