Fortunate Son | Live Video
Although we haven't been doing this tribute project for real long (2 paid gigs, plus an apearance on Chicago's WGN Morning News), there are a few things that stand out.
First (owing a great deal to the invaluable efforts of our pal & starmaker/image builder Leigh Hanlon), we've been able to create more video content than most bands - national or local. We're feeling great about this, as most local/startup bands don't even consider the power and value of ANY kind of video. Agents and talent buyers really appreciate this, as they can see/hear exactly what they'll be getting.
Second: Am I the only one who thinks lead singer Dan McGuinness will be (is already?) a big-time, world-class singer? The guy has sailed through some relatively challenging situations, with nary a stumble. He sang every song for a two hour show (our debut), and absolutely killed 'em; he notched up his performance even more for an early-morning live TV show (2nd "gig"); And things got even more watchable/fun for the 3rd appearance at an outdoor Chicago festival. See for yourself as we do "Fortunate Son."
