Oh my god. It was just THE BEST!!!

The only criticism I have is that, while I am a huge fan of Belew, I would have much preferred STEWART on vocals on I Know Too Much. However, that did permit STEWART to behind his kit for the entire song, which was nice to see

The show form the 23rd was just posted on youtube in its entirety:

This is surely a band that after a few gigs will definitely take the roof down! Very Kool! (KK is in the house!)

I love this band. Not bad for the first extended live performance.

It's nice that the radio station promoted them and I realize that radio requires interviews and commentary... but all the talking and the translations was not good for the rhythm of the show.

And please somebody tell the band to perform Stewart's great Police songs such as A Sermon, Fallout, Bombs Away, Miss Gradenko and Darkness.

Congratulations to Gizmodrome. Loving it.

[jerseyfan]

BTW, it doesn't matter who sings those Stewart Police songs, as long they get performed.

Yes you're definately right, the band need to rehearse and to play live in order to learn to know each other musically better. There was indeed some fragility in the Rai TV show, though they are professionals it's a new born band !!
The rehearsals for the Florence show is full of hope .
