Great timing! I was up in Minnesota for the holidays the same week you were playing there! I saw your last show with Brian at the Whisky earlier this year. I liked the two full one-hour sets and all the chicks on stage for "Hot For Teacher". The line up is perfect now, the sound is amazing, and the show rocks! Try to make it to Texas...

Well i serve many major bands that preform in salt lake area, and was able to serve the atomic punks, starting with picking em up in my super stretch limo taking them to there radio interview at our local rock station "rock99" with mick & allen morning freak show. And ralph atomic's award winning "vocals" undisputed of course, while tuning in to salt lakes waiting fans "via" the radio, pumping the airwavs with his acoustic in studio, createing a sure sell out to his many fans here in salt lake before his second show, hours later. indeed he packed the club to max capacity. but after the interview before his show, myself,ralph and the rest of the band went to a high profile race track "nascart" just minutes from the radio station, as we suited up helmets, crash course class, even to learn flaging in case your booted off the track, anyway me the limo driver here, kicked there ass, in these very fast moving cars, in a 60 lap race at speeds so fast the track cant even with -stand and crashing,spinning out could land you in the hospital easy.. but then again kicking there ass was a blast. (even though they wont admit it) but it's on tape.. ha ha.. ralph on the other hand did not give up on my aggressive driving playing dirty spining him out, he gave me a run for the money.. maybe a second carreer choice for ralph "race car driver" huh what do ya all think ?.. ralph finishing 1st place in the indy 500.. and then doing a live preformance with his other of course best cover "VOCALS" trib to the best band ever Van Halen, the band i grew up on.. But after the race and a in house massage from a hot therapist provided by Nascart, they were wisked away in a limo/race car driver me still laughing about our track event, they went to the hotel to gear up for the sold out show at the atchafalya.. And meeting them (atomic punks) at the show, As we were back stage hanging while they were packing in the atomic fans, And i think we all had the greatest time that day together and unforgettable day at that.. And the atomic punks havent even preformed yet ! But when they took the stage, the over packed place was taken by suprise when the first cord was struck, and ralphs talent sold it's self and then some from there fans ,and created fans that never steped out of country music that attended.. funny but true.. And trying to keep these rockers off stage and back stage was a chor, Atomics kicked provo's ass that night and gained many new fans and was talked about quite a bit by listeners following the show on rock 99 even days after, as the station Rock99 was pumped for info regaurding this hot band "ATOMIC PUNKS" for awhile... should have stayed Ralph !! probably without a doubt could have booked another sell out !! But My personal Experiance with these guys was a landmark and has led to a pretty close personal friendship, as i visit the west coast freq. and hook up with one or more of these PUNKS as i visit the rest of the family in san diego. But dont have a problem at all cutting the family visits short at all in san diego kicking there preperation of a family dinner with (PIG IN THE GROUND) consisting of two days preping, to go meet a loyal considerate, genuine person during his break while preforming in s.d. my newest brother from another mother "RALPH" And the 3 daughters i raise admirer him aswell.. And out of all the headliners,artist and talent they have met, they put ralph and the punks at there pride of conversation while shareing our wall of fame to there school buds.. But they'd like this kept secret from Roma Downy.. huh back up blackmale for me.. So if you get the option to hang with these COVER MASTERS of that Van Halen group, Even after the back stage signing of autographs the after hours party held 18 hrs after we started really brought out the best of us and made the thing we all know as a "BOND"

The energy of this band is awesome.It's one thing to just be able to sing the songs,but you have to have the attitude and stage presence.These guys have it all!I also noticed in talking to the people there,that they are die hard fans.I myself have seen them in Vegas and Arizona and I enjoy them more every time.I plan on getting to as many shows as possible.Rock on guys!!

well... i know i have said it before, but... HOLY CRAP, THIS WAS THE BEST SHOW EVER!!! whew! ok, i got that outta my system! this show rocked like they were planning on it. i mean, they were having FUN and getting STRAIGHT to business. the crowd was in it 100%! which is always a good sign. i was SO glad to hear some of the older and less well-known stuff. "hang 'em high" and "so this is love?" are two of my favorites and the punks did not disappoint. the end of night got a little crazy with the guys gettin' all eighties on us. after some musical pranking between the band and "dave", ralph gave a reverant sermon about eighties metal and the next thing you know, we were listening to OZZY and even a little bon jovi. the punks also graced us with a bit of "dave's" version of "why can't this be love?" from 5150! after a brief nod towards metallica's "enter sandman", the guys flew into the remaining VAN HALEN genius and finished up stonger than ever! i gotta say folks, it doesn't get much better than this. I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING IN THE WORLD BETTER THAN SEEING VAN HALEN EVERY TWO MONTHS!! well, except seeing them even more often! thanks guys! and see you all next time in VEGAS!

WOW! as usual, it was worth the long wait! the punks are back in vegas and, this time, they are pulling out all the stops. i was listening to FAIR WARNING the other day and when i got to the last two songs, "Sunday Aftrenoon in the Park" and "One Foot Out the Door", i knew i wouldn't be hearing it this weekend. well... i couldn't have been more wrong. i almost lost my mind when JOE started playing a bass solo reminiscant of the '83 US festival show, then swinging in to the songs!! it was AWESOME! the only problem with tonight's show was it's brevity. BUT HEY! i still got tomorrow night!!! look for the review on sunday!!
