No foolin'!
Last time I saw Mitch Ryder it was downright near pathetic ... it was
the night the last episode of Cheers went down ... 92 ..? Anyway ...
... he played w/a sub-standard/pick-up Long Island bar band in a crummy
disco w/a makeshift stage a few towns south of me ... Shirley, L.I. It
was pretty laughable. He did all the hits but there wasn't anything
"happening" really.
A few years or so prior tho! Early 90. We saw him out @ the Steven
Talkhouse and in Manhattan at the old Lone Star Roadhouse. Unreal,
these two shows! He had Robert Gillespe on but one of his dual
screamin' lead guitars < http://www.motorcityjams.com/gillespie.html
> and Johnny' The Bee' Badanjak on traps and it was like being
transported back to Detroit circa 1969 or some Radio Birdman show circa
whenever ... awesome shows.
According to that link up there Mitch and Robert recently toured Europe
as some form of Detroit Wheels or something. I saw Robert w/Scott
Morgan's Powertrane last year <a year ago this week actually> and
...yes ... we had levitation!
