It s always good to see bands who started in the Midwest return for shows.

Mark Stone (4 out of 5 stars) I thank the previous reviewers for recommending purchasing the 3-cd/dvd set at Wal-Mart for a few dollars more. I can t stop cranking this cd. The cd of new music would fit nicely with the mid-80s REO sound.
The dvd is a well-mixed unplugged interview/concert for a studio audience, and includes terrific new arrangements of Ridin The Storm Out and Roll With the Changes, as well as a few tracks from the new cd. I was particularly impressed with Dangerous Combination, which was co-written by Kevin Cronin and the talented Jim Peterik of Survivor and the Ides of March.
