I was at a gig this evening and before it started they played some songs which I presume were off of a mixed CD or something but they were of a similar type - i.e whitesnake, bon jovi etc

They played this oen song that started straight off with a guitar into that was more liek a solo than an intro riff - it then went into a bloke isnging

sounded 80's or early 90's maybe - it was fairly fast paced

the only sentence i remember from the first section was something like ' i remember my home town'

google search brigns up nothing that is correct

any clues?

wtf - as if!

anyway, yes i just want to hear the song again because it got cut off halfway through when the band came on. this has happened quite often but usually i can remember enough of the lyrics.

What about asking your mates who were with you?
Shall I give you my phone number and you can hum it?

Born to Run and Darkness On The Edge of Town were also classic

Thats not including the fact he used to put on 3 hours epic rock shows and even now is still putting on great stadium shows with the E Street Band

It was a Dire Straits tribute band, only a small gig.

Dire Straits were a british band big in the 80's.
