So what did everyone think? What were the highlights?

While not necessarily the highlight, here is a nice song by The Eliminators. Much more to follow.

E - Five

Eddie Bertrand more than living up to his legendary status. Eddie is backed by The Eliminators.

I also saw The Sand Devils who gave a very strong performance.

Outerwave has added new material and are even better since I last saw them, if that's possible.

Dave Wronski was awesome as usual. The hip-hop crowd filtering in was wide eyed. I think they learned old school is not Run DMC.

And here is the Link Wray tune "Steel Trap" featuring some great sax work by Bill Swanson.

What's the 'etymology' of the -O-Rama 'suffix'? My mind is blanking and I feel like I should know the answer.

I had a very good time at the gig, a lot of killer stuff, as mentioned above Eddie withe the Eliminators and Dave with Outer Wave were excellent. Outer Wave indeed added more material and are awsome...
Thanks for the compliments everyone, it was a good gig for us (The Sand Devils) too, I was concerned with the setup and tear down time, but it all turned out ok. We hadn't played out in a while and I was glad there was a good response.
Tim, thanks for the video, the song is called "Scrambled" (part of our S series Snake Eyes, Stacatto Lane, Southsider)
