Thunder 2010
We played together from 1974-76. This year we decided to have a reunion. We planned this over a years time, working around schedules of 7 people in 3 states. It was a fantastic weekend for everybody, we had a great time playing together again after 30 years. The keys and drums hadn't played anything in 20 years, only the bass player still plays regularly. These recordings are the result of a day and a half of rehearsal.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Formed in the summer of 1974, as best as we can recall, we played every pool party, apartment complex party we could. By 1975, we had gotten into a few club dates and in 1976 we were house band in several clubs around Huntsville Alabama. Summer of 76, the club we were playing in burned along with our equipment. This was a pretty big blow to us, as not only did we lose the job we had but lost the ability to play anywhere else. Things went down hill from there, people had to find work to live.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We have plans to play again live one more time, TBD!
Your musical influences
We were a band of the 70s.. The songs we played then were the influences of our music. Allmans to Zeppelin, we played it.
