San Diego tribute bands: 40 Ounces to Freedom (Sublime), Dust N’ Bones (Guns N’ Roses), Dazed and Confused (Led Zeppelin)
Yeah Brother Loves has not gigged in almost 3 years and has been defunct and broken up for at least 2 - waste of space that could have been given to a band that is actually out there gigging...— April 12, 2009 9:52 a.m.
Formerly of NBC 7/39
Pretty brutal and impersonal, shame on NBC 7/39 and the shameless way they say thanks to an employee for their service. It is inhumane to not even say "we're letting you go because... thank you for your time and service here!" What comes around goes around, how unprofessional not the way to treat a human being. Thumbs down to NBC 7/39— February 5, 2009 8:02 p.m.
Tweakers Took My Speakers
Anyone (especially Tweekers, but OK anyone) who rips off hardworking musicians should, when they eventually die of their inevitable overdose -- be put in a hell that consists of a cramped elevator full of un-bathed junkies and tweekers going "Cold Turkey" (also the name of a punk record Lennon made before punk existed) playing a MUZAK versions of Debby Boone's "You Light Up My Life and mmm... Free Bird...— January 28, 2009 2:15 p.m.
The Real Neil
I first saw the Diamond Is Forever band with David Sherry in 2006 when my parents invited the family to come and visit (Rancho Carlsbad) and see their community's big annual concert event... I didn't expect much in fact I expected "senior" entertainment like a jazz band or something and so I was more than pleased to discover it was a Neil Diamond tribute band. Not a big fan, I must say, but I did know and like Diamond's radio hits, I grew up with them after all but considered myself more of an 80's rock fan. I was surprised to find more than 700 people there and after a 2 1/2 hour concert by this man and his incredibly ROCKIN' band - I left a confirmed Diamond fan! Even Went out and bought his two Greatest hits CDs the next day! Needless to say when I saw an advertisment in the NCT that his band was playing at the Moonlight (I think it was late summer 2007) I got a group of friends together to picknik and they were as blown away as I was - and I was floored again, by the size of the crowd and the the response he and his band got - everyone cheered and screamed and gave the band a standing ovation at the end - one of my friends has been a Neil fan for years and has seen the real Neil an number of times and said it was like going in a time machine to see Diamond in concert back in the 70's and 80's!! I have been on their mailing list since and not only saw David and the band perform at the House of Blues - and they brought the house down, I felt sorry for the U2 tribute that followed they were lost trying to follow that band! I remember David saying, "Don't let anyone tell you that Neil Diamond and his music doesn't rock"!!! They really did and I think they did like 3 encores that night. Saw the band again at the Moonlight in June or July of 2008 and hope they come back again this year. I have to admit, the Diamond is Foerever band has made me a bona fide Neil Diamond fan! In fact I saw my first Neil Diamond concert in San Diego in November last year and loved it! This San Diego based (I believe) band does us proud in San Diego, thanks Reader for this article I bet he was excited to meet the man! I was just seeing the pic of the two of them together!— January 26, 2009 1:47 p.m.
