They're a great band and I am a big fan. Was just thinking yesterday about seeing their upcoming show in April. Now that you have posted their setlist (thanks very much!) I'm not so sure. That is not remotely similar to the setlist I would choose for them,...

They were here in Raleigh last Tuesday night and (naturally) I was out of town and couldn't be there. I've always been a big Tesla fan. In fact, I met my wife at a Tesla concert so they kind of hold a special place for both of us. I missed two great shows last week because of this new job position. Tesla and Black Stone Cherry.. DAMN!!! Work SUX!! But at least I have one, some aren't so lucky. I have to keep telling myself that... (grumble grumble)

Skeoch's demon's got him kicked out in 2005/6.

Oh. Didn't realize that. I haven't followed them in awhile.

Tesla rocks.

Whenever I see Frank play, I realize how sucky I am

Frank Hannon has to be one of the coolest most down to earth people I've ever met. I met him in 1987, Tesla was opening up for Ratt if I remember correctly. Granted this was before they had really broke out. I got his autograph while he was walking around the local mall.

He saw us the next night at the show, and was remembered us gave us backstage passes. Great person and a great band.

Yeah, those guys are good people. Especially Brian Wheat, the bassist. Good guy. Good band.

Great review! I've always been a Tesla fan. In fact, Little Suzi was one of the very first songs I taught my son how to play - at age 8! Never managed to get out and see tho, life always seemed to get in the way. I'll have to see if their headed this way.
