Review: Waddy Wachtel Band 10/20/12


Note from Nina:

Everyone was excited to be at the fabulous Joint Saturday night October 20 to get fantastically rocked up by the Waddy Wachtel Band. They never let us down - always a great performance by these pros!

First....... In case you didn't hear....... The Waddy Wachtel Band will be at The Joint again on Saturday night November 24. If you missed the 10/20 show, be sure to catch WWB on 11/24. If you were with us on 10/20, I know you'll want to come back on 11/24. As Waddy says: "We'll be lookin' for you!" Waddy also says that the special guests at the shows are YOU! The best rock 'n' rollers around. Yes, you are!

About Saturday night 10/20:
By the time Waddy Wachtel, Phil Jones, Rick Rosas, Brett Tuggle and Jamie Savko blasted into the first song of the night "Rocks Off" The Joint was packed with all of us eager fans wanting them to get our rocks off - and they did! Waddy and Jamie let us know for sure with their burnin' vocals that we were in for a great night!

The first set was filled with one fantastic song after another, and the guys burned through all of them. They sure got all of us HOT!

Waddy set those guitar strings on fire!
Phil could have set a flame on those drum skins!
Rick on bass provided the timber for the bonfire!
Brett fanned the flames on keyboards and guitar!
Jamie ignited the blast with his superb vocals!
Were we happy? Oh yesssss!

Adding to the fun were:
Bernard Fowler thrilling everyone with his incredible voice!
Keith Allison smiling through all his songs - including "Werewolves of London"!
John Cowsill joining the band to sing lead vocals on the Beach Boys song "Darlin"!

Did I use too many exclamation points? Well, these guys deserve all of them and more!!!!!!
