I like it, Roger. The alter-ego of Hot Rize, they're not afraid of a little humor and an original take on a classic. We'll never grow if we only mimic the past.

Saw Hot Rize and their alter ego band at a rodeo in Longmont Colorado in 1985. They blew me away with their talent. Of course I was more into bluegrass then.

| Some songs are sacred and need to be respected. Didn't care for the NY reference either. |

Pete Wernick is originally from NY and the festival they are playing at, in the video, is in New York, that was the NY reference.
One amazing thing about that show is the just a year earlier, while flying to that same festival, Pete Wernick was on United Airlines Flight 232. It was a flight that crashed in Iowa and killed 112 people, and Pete, his wife & son, walked away from it. That steel, and his banjo, were in the wreckage. The case for the steel was burnt up and the bottom of the steel was burt. He still plays that same steel today and it's still all burned on the bottom side, and he has had to replace the leg sockets because of the damage, but it still works.
