    Doing a rather excellent acoustic set at Planet Rock Towers right now. Live in their FaceAche page.

    Danny’s got some serious pipes on him, and thankfully isn’t dancing!

    Wanted to see Thunder for years after hearing reports of brilliant gigs and finally got to see them last year. Travelled from Cumbria to see them at Hammersmith and was drastically underwhelmed. Just another rock band I thought. Still like the music and like you say Flashy, Danny has a great set of lungs but my illusions were shattered!

    They were on Andertons TV (YouTube) if you want a rundown of the gear and some improv stuff..

    I’m not a fan (can you tell?) but they most certainly can play a tune, and live too..

    Still regret seeing them on tour with Skin back in like 1932 or something, it was the night before one of my standard grades and I was forbidden.

    Still have my white les Paul custom (copy) signed by the original band!

    Saw then a few times, always a brilliant show. Might have to dig out “backstreet symphony tomorrow!

    Stumbled across an album launch party at XLs in Birmingham one wet evening inthe late ‘90s.
    Ended up drinking with them for quite a few hours & came away with a load of white label copies of the album, signed t shirts etc…
    Was never a huge fan tbh although I thought they were ok. They weren’t the worst band on the set list when I saw them at Donnington a few years before that, IMO that was WASP…

    Saw Thunder many years ago supporting someone or other, may even have been Thin Lizzy.
    Never felt any overwhelming desire to see them again.

    I’m well into my rock music ..but I’ve always thought Thunder were pretty crap..
    Once read a review somewhere that compared Danny’s vocals to Paul Rodgers..nearly pissed myself laughing..
    In his dreams!

    Saw them supporting Bon Jovi and Van Halen in 95? on a baking hot day at Don Valley stadium. One of the best live bands I’ve seen, no fancy set, lights or pyrotechnics, just stood there and rocked it out.

    First band I ever saw live. Donington ’90. Hell of a first gig.

    I thoroughly enjoyed their cover version of “I’m a believer “ by the Monkees, on yesterday’s Michael Ball radio programme on the transistor radiogram.

    No, I’m not joking.

    Yes, it really was good.
