1. No flame from here...I agree they have a great...
...if misunderstood sound. Wanna get flamed? Say something about the Bay City Rollers (good or bad).

2. What is it?
Obviously it is a musical group of some kind, but I haven't heard of them. I guess that happens when one becomes a bit more than middle aged. I assume they don't play classical music. Perhaps they borrow some tunes from some of the people of Africa or the Middle East or India?(My favorite kind of music) Or are they C&W?

11. No kidding
I saw them in Boston a few years ago. I don't know their music and we had won tix from a radio station. While they played well, I think they had all knocked back a few Valium before the show. Weird.

12. I think they tend to sound the same on most songs
I'm still pissed about their version of Sweet Jane. I know it introduced a lot of people to Lou ( well maybe) but I much prefer the original version with a lot of bite! I do like that song Wedding Ring, tbough. But generally they are too mellow for me. :) No conflagration, just opinion.
