We will be a while adding all the new selections to our links under bands and singer/songwriters. Will add each direct link address as we talk to each band and singer.
Ledzeppelin2 http://www.ledzeppelin2.com/ Chicago to Austin. Not an easy thing to do, coming up next to greatness. It’s not perfect but my guess is it will not matter to anyone wanting to hear anything remotely close to what was. I’d like to hear something they write.
Paradise Titty http://my.sxsw.com/events/eid/9877 Female G N Roses. Band, Vocals, Sound, hard to match both vocals and lead even if your the same sex. All female rock and roll band that knows how to rock even if it is impossible to match note for note. Would be interested to hear something of their own.
