Re: The Forgotten Bands
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">[img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img] I listened to Street Ready cd the other day. I didn't know they reissued it. Saigon Kick's long been a favorite of mine... see Lizard tattoo [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] http://tinyurl.com/3h282
On the Water tour, I kept flashing the band, Pete kept cracking up and was saying nice tattoo, Phil thought it was really cool, I don't think Jason saw it, or at least he didn't acknowledge me. [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
I haven't heard any of the new Skid Row without Bas yet, but I've been thinking of picking it up.

Leatherwolf...I just bought the reissue CD of "Street Ready"...that CD rips! Saigon Kick...wow, what can I say? Those guys were the prototype for my band. I met Jason and a local guitar shop in Tampa when they were recording "Water". I was playing a riff from "The Lizard" and he came over and started talking to me. We sat and jammed for a minute on some Rivera amps and Hamer USA guitars (which he said he hated...ESP guys!). He was cool. Told me all about some new Rivera gear he got from Paul Rivera to do the album with. I was very psyched!!
A couple of years later when Saigon Kick got back together (minus Jason - they had the guitarist from SLAUGHTER) my singer and I were hanging at the bar when Matt Kramer came up. We bought him some drinks and shot the breeze...he was pretty far out of his head. When my singer asked him if they were getting Jason back, Matt got pissed and said not to bring that up. He was kind of a dick after that. Then we went to Orlando to see them again, and Matt did a stage dive and kicked me in the fucking eye!! He broke my glasses and gave me a mega shiner. All a coincedence though.
Damn, I wish those guys would get back together...
Oh yeah, don't forget about Skid Row. Their latest record rips...even with out Bas.
