    There's another band called "Hot For Teacher" up here in No Cal. They are good - but light years away from the Punks. Not even close.
    They know it, too. A for effort - C+ for show. Ouch

      Yeah the Punks have it all... ...the look, the sound, AND the energy... ...but again, let me check out this "Fair Warning"... What's their website?
      Knowing and believing are two very different things.

      It is the difference between the knowledge we accrue... ...and the knowledge we apply.

        Man that dude from FW looks like Janie Lane from Warrant before he got too fat and grew a mohawk.

          I saw the Atomic Punks on 8/31 at the HOB Downtown Disneyland. This BAND IS AMAZING. Ralph Saenz does a better Dave than Dave does!!! It's really scary because I know Dave.

              UPDATE: Saw the Punks last month and they blew me away. Taking the wife to see them next month when they come back. She has never seen Halen. Should be fun!

                The Punks rule & Ralph's 'Roth' is fuckin' scary.
                "Honey, my shirt got itself torn up. My shirt tore itself on that stripper's hand, and I need it to be sewed up for the show."
                "No problem, Dave, no problem. Say hello to Fluffy."
                "Fuck you, Fluffy."
                "No, no, you're going to upset Fluffy."
                "I ain't saying hello to no stuffed bear."
                "You know, now that I think about it, it's going to take a little longer to sew up that shirt than I was thinking."
                "Hi Fluffy, how you been?"
                "Now that I'm thinking of it even more, it's going to take half the time, Double D, Diamond Dave! Would you hold Fluffy?"
                "N--- yeah."

                  Maybe Ed should hire Ralph to do the classic stuff since sam sucks at it.

                    I've always wanted to check out HFT.
                    I heard they played in Oakland last month,
                    but I was out of town and couldn't make the show.
                    I've heard the same thing you mention starwood,
                    but I would still like to see them.

                    As far as the Punks....
                    did you make it to their show Scrapy?

                    It is a show worth checking out in my opinion.

                    I saw them in LA at the Whiskey with some dlrml'ers.
                    I thought Ralph and the guys were amazing!
                    They put on a great show.

                    A must see for every VH fan!

                      Sorry scrap..just noticed your update, glad you got to check them out!
                      Your wife should really enjoy the show too.

                        I just seen Ralph monday, they play as "Metal Skool" on Monday nites at the Roxy on Sunset..

                        "Metal Shop" is dead: The VIP'er Lounge claims they have rights to the name (like CitiBANK® Visa™ has over "Danger Kitty™") and the Roxy can afford to pay way way more for Ralph and the Boys to do their cover-tunes schtick in a bigger joint than the VIPer Dive. And they rock!

                        They do 80's hair-metal cover tunes within a comedy act where they wear wigs: the bass player's hairstyle without the wig, for example resembles Wally from Leave It To Beaver.. very short.

                            Atomic Punks ROCK

                            Sorry this response comes so late after your question......but the answer is DO NOT MISS THE ATOMIC PUNKS. They are the real deal...absolutely fantastic. Ralph Saenz does David Lee Roth better than anyone. You will have a kick-ass time. I see them every chance I can get!!!

                                Saw the Punks last year. It was especially great when Ralph began dissing Van Hagar in the middle of the set. :D
