If I didn't have to dress up and ACT like someone else I'd be into doing it..

Al Estrada should go for this gig. Hes way better than Russ was and would certainly make more dough. I wonder if he has a day job? Anybody know him?

Anybody know him? someone said the same exact thing on harmony central..and I agree.....I liked AP better as a band, but think al's the better guitarist..even though russ is no slouch =D aren't they located in california though? |

I've heard a couple of his lead clips....not really doin' a VH cover, but he's definetly got the vh vibe down, in addition to the tone...

I remember going to see Russ play in Cleveland before he moved to LA. I always thought he was great. I saw him play before I even played guitar... But Al,, man Al's got the VH thing down AND just chops that are insane. He would kill that gig. I hope they get someone really good. VHolic seems like a good player, but has he ever played a gig or been in a pro band?

The thing the Punks have thats hard to beat is Ralph. I mean that guy is sooooo good. Hes a great singer not just with VH stuff, but he has DLR down. I played a show with them years ago when I was in Superfreak in Pittsburgh I think it was.., but it wasn't the Punks it was his Danger Kitty side project thing where they did 80's stuff and dressed up etc... They had a different guitar player though who wasn't real great.
