I don’t believe that I had ever seen a live video of them before. Tight band. Big, old school lighting set up. Each fixture is one color and lights one position. My have things changed.

...is when they did an a cappella version of the anthem at a Giants game.
Their harmonies were outstanding.
As a band they're tight, to be sure, but they cap it off with those great vocals.
I can always tell which bands slugged it out in clubs before they hot signed.
The News is one of them.
