Came across this just now
10cc live playing "Feel the Benefit"

Forgotten what a talented bunch they were and one of my favourite tracks I haven't heard in years!

Nice one Baz, one of my favourite groups (bands) from the olde days and I hadn't played any of their 'stuff' lately so um gonna make up for it ... right now: www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6Jb9m1N67g

A vastly under-rated band. It's a pity that well written comedy records seem to have died the death in recent years -

Funny though how the comic song has declined. In the old musichall days it was a mainstay.
'Oh Mr Woo, what shall I do? I've got those kind of Limehouse Chinese laundry blues... '
And 'I get much more pleasure when I'm playing with me euk...' Pretty near the knuckle some of them.

We all know rock musicians are nancy boys (yeah right !!! try drinking with ANY musician, especially brass) but sit through the second vid and you will learn it's a bit more than hammering away on a string...He copies Bach !!!

Or... this is the lead guitarist (and songwriter) from my stepson's band; see 1:56:

Try Yngwie from 56 minutes in the above link. He looks like he's out to snap the guitar.
No disrespect your stepson's band look like they mean business.
Any concerts planned in SE in the next month?
|
Yeah - impressive, although I'm glad I can ffwd through it and not be stood up in a hot sweaty auditorium waiting for the band to get going again :)
Band have just been recording their next studio album and will be touring it, not sure when/where though. Will try to find out.

Yep, another 10cc fan over here.
Although from Manchester, they recorded a fair bit in Dorking. Where the road from London (A24) passes through Mickleham village there used to be a road sign warning of 'Deceptive Bends', which became the title of one of their albums.
