High Tide at Brownwood last weekend
This was the first time I've heard of this band so we went over to Brownwood to see if they lived up to the newspaper ad of "high energy rock", While I was raised on VH, Dio, Ratt, Dokken and what I consider great rock, this band was solid. Female vocalist, keyboards, bass, drums and an unbelievable guitarist/singer, Mike Hayes. I would rank this guy in the top 5 I"ve ever seen on a local stage. I nearly cried when they covered Black Magic Woman by Santana. This guy has a sound that needs to be heard and plays the guitar better than anybody who comes to TV. Wide variety of cover tunes with good stage presence and tight grooves. Will see again just for the guitarist if anything. Set list will appeal to most.
