Meanwhile, Hannon was interviewed by Metal Edge and talked about the album, “It’s 100% live, and it was recorded at the Sturgis Bike Rally, which is one of the great events that we love. It’s got motorcycles, rock music and a ton of energy. We love it, and the night that we played there, man, we were on fire. And I think we really captured it with this record… like lightning in a bottle. We’ve got a bonus track that we’ll include, an old Aerosmith song called ‘S.O.S. (Too Bad)’, and I don’t think too many people know it. We basically went back to California, hunkered down in my garage, set up some microphones, and recorded it live right then and there. I think that song is one of their best songs, and it was killer to get to record it.”
As you know, Tesla drummer Troy Luccketta is ‘taking a little time from the road’ to spend with family and friends. Steve Brown, the younger brother of former Dokken drummer Mick Brown, is filling in.
And, if you’re into a Vegas trip, Tesla just added five more shows to their residency at House Of Blues at Mandalay Bay Resort And Casino. New show dates start on Friday, September 29. Sounds like a great excuse for a debaucherous Vegas weekend.
