Y & T played some tiny club in San Diego. Two unknown local bands opened up. At the door, they asked who you were there to see so they could put a checkmark next to that bands name to keep a tally. Y & T had nine checks when I got there after the first band had finished. Maybe 100 people in total for the entire club at it's peak (and that included employees & roadies). And with people smoking, shooting pool, or at the bar, it was basically front row for 30-40 people.
With that said, Y & T was actually really good. Dave Meniketti's voice sounds just as good as 20 years ago. His guitar playing was exceptional, and they played for 2 hours. I had forgotten how many cool songs they had...Black Tiger, Don't Stop Runnin', Mean Streak, etc... Y & T never got huge, which is too bad since they actually had some talent when other who made it big didn't.
Anyways, if you get a chance to see them at a local bar, do it. I spent $46 for the whole night, and that included entry & beers. I even bought a couple beers for my friend. Got to meet the band afterwards for a few minutes.
