After a lackluster set from 80’s rockers Saigon Kick L.A. GUNS returned with a heavy and energetic setlist of no holds barred rock favorites. I looked at my friend Dave and commented ‘These guys obviously got sleep” as they were all obviously very well rested. The band looks and sounds like they’re never going to stop and I certainly most definitely hope they do not.<\/p>\n\n\n

The venue was packed with excited fans so its apparant that the blue dot fever trend has not affected the hard rock legends which is a very good sign for the boys in the band. And they seemed very appreciative and look to have a lot more fun onstage than a lot of veterans who go thru the motions for only a payday. Each member seems to have their own individual stage persona with Phil Lewis as an ever changing chameleon as far as his appearance and has a voice that is as solid today as it was in the late 80’s. A claim not a lot of other front men can claim. Tracii as usual really enjoys playing guitars and the bands rips through the set like a Cannonball! (but what’s up with his goofy socks?)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
