I’ve been drumming for decades and I dig this guys technique and ‘fills’. And who ever set up the PA …especially where the kit comes in. That bottom end is THUNDERING!!!!
Damn..I dont think anybody in the crowd EVEN knows who "Head East" is...? Man this was one tune that gained a lot of airplay during my high school days..Great job guys..love it!
Very first pro band I ever seen was HeadEast. They opened for KISS. Spring of 1977 if I remember correctly. This is and will always be a go to “party song”. Great job gentlemen
Great job! I’ve always wanted to cover this one. To this day I’ve been able to. It’s a killer song, just not as well known as a lot of classic rock. You guys did awesome with it.
Wow! What a closer. Can’t imagine what the rest of the set/sets sounded like. You guys are AWESOME! You really forget about this amazing tune, until you hear it, again.
Full show will touch on a bit of everything from Boston to Charlie Daniels. to Paul Simon, Huey Lewis, Gin Blossoms, Styx, Alabama, Kenny Chesney, Journey, etc....
Nope. Head East has the lock on this sound. These guys did a good job on a cover that not many people do. The keys are the weak spot. The lead synth needed to be a spot on twin Minimoog sound, which he did not produce. Close, but no cigar. The Hammond B3 sound was too dark and not breathy enough to actually sound like a vintage B3. Props to the band. Good job, but listen to the original closer and work on those keyboard patches.
This is just my personal opinion but this one is not musical. I don't feel excitement and articulation. They are just playing the notes. That is what I feel by listening this performance.
Honestly, the first minute sucked-lead vocal was singing like he was afraid of the high notes. By the end, everyone was tearing it up. Head East covers are not for the meek...
Funny thing is the fact that when the remaining members and those who are claiming to be head East go out and play. They play like they're sleeping on their own. Couch! So I don't know what your complaint is?
