Demo Song

Some friends and I have been getting together to play music. We are just doing it for FUN, we won't play gigs and we are mainly doing cover songs. I thought I would share a song we recorded over the weekend. You should recognize the tune. I am playing guitar.

It is an 8.4MB download. Please download it and play it, don't try and stream it as I am not supposed to have ANY mp3s on this hosting space.

My wife and I loved it... She was a big Journey fan back when they were still around. You guys are really good.

Wow, that's really good... I'm wondering if you guys recorded one track at a time, and with what equipment? The sound quality is really impressive.

Sounds me to Whitesnake, Deff Leppard, DIO, Megadeth, Van Halen, etc styles, ie. the ones of the more commercial metals ...

So is Flaming Amoeba another Brice Manuel nickname?

Thanks, guys!

No, it was "studio live", everything went into the mixer, then into a computer running n-track.

The sound quality is really impressive.

IMHO, very muddy sounding, but it wasn't meant to be a professional recording, mainly trying to capture some of the majic of a jam session.

Cool tune, fire the drummer

More like the singer for messing up the words on the chorus, although to his defense, I have heard Perry sing it various different ways back in the day.

Lucifer: As to the drumming, what is the mistake? Foot or hand? The drummer (who is a plumber) had a work accident two years back and broke his right hip, his "footwork" has never been the same.

I can't say much myself, as the car accident I was in back in Feb messed up my left index finger pretty bad which has really bugged my guitar playing quite a bit. Still play other instruments ok, though.

As to the song, we really tried to stay true to the original version.
