Not even Floodin' down in Texas can stop the 80 PROOF party. A special thanks to all those that came out to Oz Bar last night to check out the show. We appreciate all our fans and we continue to recruit more every gig.
We brought out our unique light and stage show to the Oz Bar and the crowd loved it. If you haven't seen our show - we entertain the audience (and it shows). We like to think of it as bringing the rock arena experience to your local bar, club, pub, or private party. Other bands can stand and play music - that's fine and dandy. But maybe an 80 PROOF show isn't for everyone:
1) You get see Jason dance, move, jump off the stage, jump off tables, jump off balconies, gyrate all while mesmerizing the crowd with his voice.
2) Also doing duty on vocals, sexy Sally sizzling the audience with her voice and dance moves as well - not to mention the outfits.
3) Rudy shredding the guitar - whether it's a funky number like Hot Stuff or Funkytown or bringing back the guitar god himself, Eddie Van Halen. You'd swear you were back in the 80's in the arena thousands packed with screaming girls and guys wishing they could play guitar.
4) Joey pounding away on the drums = keeping the back beat = the backbone of the band. It could be a simple blues rock beat ala Hard to Handle, heavy metal thunder ala Talk Dirty to me or Jump or even some funky ole soul like Billie Jean, then he's got you covered with the sticks. Not to mention - he also plays keyboards as well.
5) Jeff (sexy legs) on the keys. Might have to rename him 'velvet touch' as he works the ivory. Jeff shines during a few songs - Cars, Once Bitten Twice Shy, Call Me, Take on Me among others. He's also been seen doing double duty playing drums during a couple of songs. We're waiting for him to get a keytar so he can rock out with the guitar players at the front of the stage - rumors are it's coming soon. So watch out.
6) Chaka (gonna rock ya) on bass. He's nowhere and everywhere. He's onstage - he's offstage talking to chicks, working the crowd - there he is by the drummer - nope he's out front rocking with Rudy - oops missed him - he's over rockin' out by Jason and Sally now. Delivering cool basslines that have women swooning. His favorite saying I hear is "I'm the bass player. I'm hear to make the booty wiggle and the titties jiggle." I think that sums him up pretty well.
7) Danny Divar - the man behind the curtain running the sound, making sure we sound our best. He can mix the sound, run the spotlight (yes, Virginia 80PROOF is the only cover band in Houston bold enough to really bring a spotlight to there show) and he's an excellent vocalist as well. He's been known to come out on stage and sing a few songs with the band. He's a great person and 80 PROOF is that much better for him helping us with our mix.
So we understand if you can't handle an 80 PROOF show - only the best 80's band experience in Houston.
Later
