I love Tesla and still listen to their music. Psychotic Supper is one of my favorite cd's. It's a shame they burnt out with the rest of the bands did when grunge took over. Frank Hannon is one underrated guitar player, he deserved a lot more recognition than he got.

Their first album ROCKED!! Modern-Day Cowboy is an AWESOME song. After that, they kinda fell off my scope, though.

I saw Tesla twice. The first time they opened for Def Leppard on the Hysteria tour, and I think the second time was opening for Poison on the Open Up tour. Anyway, both times they rocked, although I never really followed their recording career.
I always did like Tesla, those guys rock!!!http://216.10.25.192/vhlforum/smilies/biggrin.gif
I have all of their albums! I seen em' twice too, once with Leppard (Hysteria) and once with Great White (co-headline).

They rocked, one of my favorite bands in the '80's.
I saw them about five times, the first time was opening for DLR on the "Eat 'em" Tour.
Excellent band. Saw 'em open up fo Def Lep on the Hysteria tour. Very good and underated. All their cd's are good and they sounded like they put alot of work into them.

They still around??
I catered a concert they did here in Dayton.
It was a small concert hall and it wasn't sold out. They have a couple of good tunes-
haven't heard anything new lately.

It was about 4-5 years ago when they were here. That's why I asked if they were still around.

They split up but I expect they'll reunite if they haven't already. I saw their very first gig in the UK at the Marquee Club.
ANGEL 4U- Sorry, just agreeing & wanted the board to respond. Anyways, have alot of great memories of tha band. http://216.10.25.192/vhlforum/smilies/redface.gifhttp://216.10.25.192/vhlforum/smilies/biggrin.gif

I think they have reunited and are working on an album. Thats what they said on the radio today anyway.

In a way they kinda reunited under the name of Sofa King. They were here not to long ago. "Lady Bug , Lady Bug" was their single. They played that song live in the studio of one of our radio stations. Jeff has not lost a thing. Class act. Out.

I've been listening to them lately, Mechanic Resonence, Psychotic Supper and The Great Radio Controversy (just today) and I have to say Paradise just kicks ass.
