On April 24th, a few friends and I went to the Whole to see The Mr. T Experience. The show started at 7:30, and I didn’t get off work until 7:00. None the less we made it in time to see the opening band… “The Misfires.”
What a pitiful group they were! Three whiny little teenagers. The singer’s voice wasn’t all that bad, but all the songs sounded the same, lyric wise, as well as music. I wasn’t very impressed by them.
The next band was Teen Idols. They were awesome! It was an all male band, except for the bass player, who was of course female. They kind of looked like a fifties type grease band. The band consisted of four people, the guitarist, the bass player, drummer, and lead singer. They were great.
During the time between bands a friend of mine rented a foosball table on which we all played and had fun. Anyway… on with the show.
Finally, Mr. T Experience came out. Jym on drums, Joel on bass, and Frank on guitar and vocals. They started the first song and most after saying, “…this song is about a girl”. I found this quite humorous, and laughed. They did a great job, and played well.
The show lasted until about 12:00 pm, and as far as I could tell, a lot of people enjoyed it.
