Kind of a humorous rocking tribute to a local preacher whom gets rather wound up during his sermons.
Also happens to be our front man's grandfather.
On my player now.

Some of you may have hear it before but this is the 2013 version.
We will be redoing the drum tracks today in our studio.

Enjoy . . . comment as you feel fit.

Sans you guys are on a roll. The keyboard use reminds me a bit of some Journey sounds. Your singer sounds right in his element on this tune. Key of E is his wheelhouse! It rocks man. My favorite from what I've heard from you guys thus far.

Thank you for the kind words. It's a rocker we usually reserve for closer / encore position.
The song developed from a lyric sheet that we had attempted several times to apply music to without any success.

One evening I just starting banging out the little three cord progression, Eric on Bass and Steven on the drums joined in.

Next thing we know Ray ( our previous front ) pulls out these lyrics and starts singing them.

Love love love moments like that.

Its definately one of the more lively ones... Throw in a Lead and that one should be a keeper for many live stage performances...

Thanks for the listen and the input.
I'm busy hammering out the rhythm, and operating the lights, fog & fans.
( the fans are used to stir the fog and increase the effect of the individual bursts of fog ) Jordan singing and usually off the stage ( big audience participation song for us ) there is really no place to insert much lead work ( nor anyone to do so ).
Hopefully as we continue to develop it from a performance aspect there will be some piano soloing included.
