Bang Tango In Chicago singer falls ill, fan sings 11/25/09

[@mikeporemba4801]

I'm so pissed. This is my best friend of over 30 years, and I was supposed to be at this show. He's been a huge Bang Tango fan, Joe being one of his favorites since forever, and influenced his vocals styles over the years. This was a dream come true for him, I'm so proud of my boy. Way to rock TJ!

[@jeffdecker7077]

pass along props to him. Awesome on the spot moment !!

[@mikeporemba4801]

@@jeffdecker7077 will do, thanks.

Tango: "Where are we gonna find a guy that sings bad really well?" Your buddy dreaming of this moment since '89: "I'm your huckleberry." That's awesome man, he stole that moment....then bent it over and pounded it out! I drank beer and got to hang out with Dave brockie, lead singer of GWAR and their bassist Casey Orr back in '08. Not as cool but still a dream I had for years.

[@briangale404]

He did great! I'd imagine this was like a dream come true. So Awsome! What are odds that a fan in the audience would know the words to set list and who could sing it like a champ.

[@TheGringoLoco]

Wow. That dude sounded just like Joe Leste. Good on him, man. The show must go on.

[@JayFromEarth]

holy shit man that had to be a fun night for that dude and he actually sounded really good

[@DjJtown]

Killer night....I think....kinda fuzzy, REALLY fuzzy. This guy did one hell of a job and fit right in. About his pants, SFW! He came to watch and ended up performing. In my opinion it's about the R&R attitude and ability and NOT about the clothes.

[@jkcamperspecial]

can we say we found our new singer!!!!!

[@InfernalEve]

Yeah! Nailed it! What a dream come true! I hope this dude did something with those chrords.

[@jakedeitzler9166]

that guy sounds great he's definitely got some ranges

[@wyattsexton7083]

Throw a wig on this dude n' sign him up! Sounds like a young Joe!

[@dpeigan]

Wow! That was wicked! Good job!

[@Tomass74]

Wow, that dude did a kick ass job...

[@kurtgroner3360]

[@keith-kessinger]

[@bochicampeon624]

[@trevorangus233]

💯🤘🤘

[@JackieNihil]

he did great

[@applehead252]

Dang !

[@zrosales22]

good job for impromptu singing!

[@puksb]

Just saw this somehow. STFU about his pants/clothes. It’s 2009. If it’s lame then, what about some guys today, in 2019 who wear that SAME tired-ass gas station/bowling shirt stuff and think they’re original and relevant. This guy shows up as a fan, and nails it probably better than Joe LeSte could’ve after being on the road months. So do we know anything about that guy? DJ is all I heard.

[@mikeporemba4801]

Hey man, that's my buddy, TJ McDermott. He's been singing in his own bands since we were 17. Currently in a Fear Factory cover band and still doing his own thing in a band called Open Hole Soul.

[@ryanday633]

That fan did a great job. None of those guys are original Bang Tango members so it was a great cover band that night. None of those guys are probably even in the band anymore. These guys are probably flipping burgers at McDonalds now.

[@patrickreeves4650]

be awesome if the original guys went out with this guy fronting.

[@madmaxxmayhem]

good singing horrible metal clothes..lol
