saturn Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Sure, we can all watch clips of Gary Moore, Jeff Beck, SRV, Jimmy Page and the other greats all day long. But many of us small-timers have clips too. How about sharing some more. Here's one of my bands from last January. I only sing 2 songs, this one and "Last Dance With Mary Jane". Thank god that's all :unsure: Now for your's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank god that's all :unsure: Now for your's All I have is a Purevolume at www.purevolume.com/oddmanout3. I have never voluntarily listened to Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, I write a song, show my friend and he says "You fxcker, you ripped off Last Dance with Mary Jane"... Never listened to the song, its the same chord progression and rhythm. Holy hell! It's called Gotta Be Me if you go on the purevolume Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artie Owl Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 My only clip is an improv solo on a B blues scale I shared a while ago, it's still available on my flickr page which is in my sig, watch at your own discretion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrktwn Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 I'm the guy with the Explorer. We're not "one of the greats" but IMHO we are great band! We do some touring, so please come see us if you get a chance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisMiller Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Isn't it amazing how many truly talented people have day jobs? I used to go to Homestead, Florida to a place called the Main Street Cafe. Unfortunately, they are closed now. I rarely came home from someone's performance without wondering why they weren't really famous. I'll have to destroy some band width with an upload of my feeble attempts.

Tman Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Here is a clip of our band doing a cover of the Police's Roxanne. The band's name is Geezer. September 6th 2010, a reunion in Friday Harbor Washington the night before my wedding. Having fun. There are mistakes but we practiced only once and without amps before the gig - not making excuses but OK, I'm making them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nR-uyJ0j6ns Here is the band 32 years ago in 1978 doing an original called Black Molly in Little Rock, Arkansas. I'm playing the V and the singer is playing the explorer (both real Gibsons) and he's the same one singing Roxanne 32 years later. The guy has some pipes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHu4t8qFq6s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Bill Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 That has to be the best cover of Roxanne that I ever heard! That's a very hard song to pull of due to the vocals. Great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tman Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Thanks Big Bill. Like I said, he has some pipes. You should have heard him sing Zep's "Rock n Roll". A lot of fun for Geezer that night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted October 18, 2010 Author Share Posted October 18, 2010 Great stuff there mrktwn and tman And fred, I did notice the similarity in your song to Tom Petty's when I listened to it earlier in the week. Oh well, it's almost impossible to write something now days that doesn't have the same chords as something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVOL! Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 I'm the guy with the Explorer. We're not "one of the greats" but IMHO we are great band! We do some touring, so please come see us if you get a chance! Ha! We opened for the Bottle Rockets back in '94 at the old Reptile House in Grand Rapids, MI. I think Brian Henneman and Mark Ortman were the only two current cats with the band at the time. I remember the bass player had this crazy Frankenstein bass: green V body with an upside down Fender P-bass neck. You cats have been carrying the Midwest roots rock banner proudly since then.

mrktwn Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Yep, Radar Gun thats us. Yeah that was the old bass player, Tom V. Ray with the ugly bass. You can see him playing with Neko Case these days. The bass player and I are new. Newish. Anybody In DC, Philly, or Brooklyn? Gonna be there in November...
