      Keep digging! Their catalog of original songs is just as impressive as their covers. I spent 8 years in northern Va.

    I have been a MAJOR fan since this band began. It's amazing to see how they have matured into a very capable, tight nit group of professionals. Their respect towards musicianship and their approach to music is unparalleled by ANY band out there. Most are just '"goin' through the motions' and yet BHTM still LOVES WHAT THEY do. Just amazing guys. Todd, you are "forever the man, and I am forever your fan"!! I'll be seeing you here in St. Louis soon enough!!

    A Life of Illusion
    by Joe Walsh
    Sometimes,
    I can't help the feeling that I'm
    Living a life of illusion
    And oh, why can't we let it be
    And see through
    the hole in this wall of confusion
    I just can't help the feeling,
    I'm living a life of illusion
    Pow! Right between the eyes
    Oh, how nature loves
    her little surprises
    Wow, it all seems so logical now
    It's just one of her better disguises
    And it comes with no warning,
    nature loves her little surprises
    Continual crisis
    Hey,
    don't you know it's a waste of your day
    Caught up in endless solutions
    That have no meaning
    Just another hunch
    Based upon jumping conclusions
    Caught up in endless solutions
    Backed up against a wall of confusion
    Living a life of illusion
    Songwriters: Kenneth R. Passarelli / Joseph F. Walsh

      You hit that one on the head. So true...definitely one for the current times. BHTM does this tune real well. A totally underrated band in every way. Love the music, but hate the times we are living in right now. Have most of the people of this world lost their minds or what? It is tough to watch and endure it all. I am ashamed of what most of humanity has become. We haven't seemed to evolve much past caveman days. We are finding ways to kill one another more effectively each day. I fear it will be humanity's end long before we use up mother earth. That is my rant...something to think about!

    I know the comment section is for how much we love you but you already know how much we love you....Thanks for all of what you have given us. Mind if I say that this world is an illusion from the perspective of the one we're from. If you believe in the 'hereafter' then it is this world that fades away when we 'die', pass on.....but we all so hate to leave things undone so be leaving us too soon.

    I've seen BHTM a dozen times 1st time a at The Horde Festival. In Portland Or. In the early 90s.. I've seen 500 concerts give or take.. and these guys are 2nd to none. Other than Pink Floyd. That shows though to beat.lol. Hopefully they cruise by my town soon. I've got the perfect song they need to cover... Psycho Killer.. Talking Heads.. that song is perfect for them to play...
