Members Shellpink Posted November 27, 2005 Author Members Share Posted November 27, 2005 No, the singer/guitarist is Joe Gooch. No 335 either, he plays Tele and Strat. And he is so good, I didn't miss Alvin Lee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long have you been playing with your current band? The band exists 12 years now, with only me and the singer left from the original line-up, the current line-up lasts 3 years now. Admittedly, this has been the biggest thing yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Botch Posted November 27, 2005 Members Share Posted November 27, 2005 Cool, Shellpink! Next Friday we're playing a club for the night, then Dokken will be playing the same stage on Saturday. Not exactly opening for them, but we'll take what we can get!

I probably saw TYA 8 or 9 times in the late 60s and early 70s. Then in the 80s my band got to open up for him. He liked us so much he asked us to open up several more shows for him and he even joined us onstage to jam. He's a very nice person. The last I heard about him he was in Spain studying classical guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a big fan in the 70s and when I learned, that Alvin Lee is no longer with TYA, I thought "what's the use, Alvin Lee IS TYA, what can they do without him?", but...they did very well!

And to carry my equipment. What he did better, than taking pictures. Everything is fuzzy and foggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
