Curious to hear if it's a good fit or not...

I thought I'd wait. I didn't think any HOD'ers would go on that cruise. But the tour I would mention when we got a little closer.
Thanks for beating me to it. I too am curious if it's a good fit.

Virgil also recently recorded material with Steve Augeri, Kee Marcello and Svante Henryson under the name Ünderwörld.
He also recorded with Czech star Michael Kocab, but I'm not really into any of these 2 recent projects.

Joel Hoekstra has posted his solo albums on YouTube. Virgil is on the first two.

Here's one of my favorites from 'Undefined' (Look out for the drum solo - Virgil's bass drum never sounded boomier)



And here is all of 'Undefined' in a playlist: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTJQtLj7 ... FBEC4893C0

---

Here's one of my favorites from 'The Moon Is Falling' (it has a distinct 'Suicide is Painless' vibe to it)

That solo on the tune undefined is sweet. He should solo like that more often.

Hey, where is the poster ?

See, you choose to focus on my smile instead of the fact that I'd love to take a lesson with your boy, anyway...

That's because your replies sometimes have had a tendency to have a built in negativity which doesn't suit you. Like the one in the Gadd thread.
