Personally, REO Speedwagon represents everything that was bad about Middle-of-the Road Hair Band Ballad crap in the 70"s...
They played the kind of music that my Mother might have approved of...
All that said, Kevin Cronin(?) is playing a Black Viper (rhythm). He also plays a 12-String Blue-ish Viper...
So I guess that they can't be All bad! :rolleyes:
And there ain't much else on TV so I just saw this...
They are older, and their music is still kind Juvenile.
edit-- Now he's got a kinda barn-burst Viper. He's my Buddy now! :D
(I still ain't buying any of their albums) |

| Never was a big fan way back when, but I watched about 30 minutes and enjoyed it. It's always good to see the O's in action. |
