Seems today I'm in the mood of opening threads, well bad for you  :wink:  Here's another one about one of my favorite bands, already saw them live two times and in november there will be the third time. Alter Bridge consists of the instrumental section of Creed plus the vocalist of The Mayfield Four, but for the people who didn't like Creed, don't worry, they are much better  :D

The Band:
Myles Kennedy - Vocals & Guitar
Mark Tremonti - Guitar
Brian Marshall - Bass
Scott Phillips - Drums

Till now they have releasesd two full lenght albums One Day Remains and Blackbird, and especially the second one is really great (but the first one also has some really good tracks on it). Wrestlingfans may know some of their music cause Edge's Themesong is Metalingus by Alter Bridge btw.


So, enough talking, let the music play, here some songs, so you can get an impression about them:

Come to Life (I stood exactly behind this person, so you can imagine how I saw the concert, the quality may not be the best, but so what  :lol: )

Is also cool, but I dig the new songs a little bit more. And to show what a great singer Myles is I posted the cover of Hallelujah, simply awesome.  :D

I know Myles Kennedy for the The Mayfield Four, but I only liked the song Summergirl. Very Jeff Buckley-esque.

Mayfield Four are also pretty cool (imho), but I like Alter Bridge a lot more.

Correct, main difference is that Alter Bridge has a drummer which can drum ;) I'm just kidding, I like Metallica a lot, too.
