Bravo, Bravissimo, dear, charismatic, gifted, beloved kids, you are thr best!❤️

[@MichaelBauer-ei7dj]

Back in my day, there were a few cassettes (yes I said cassettes) there are a few that I had to replace because I played then so much, they wore out. Boston was one. I just realized these kids are younger when I was a teenager listening to Boston..... and they rock.

[@Bytor64]

PEOPLE....Take note!!!! THIS is how music is made! Real musicians learning their craft, playing real instruments! Not pushing buttons on a computer! I am a 60yr old rocker/bass player listening to this in my studio and, wow! These kids are showing up us older folk! Really well done! And Mad props to Ellen, you continue to amaze. Any Boston bass line is no easy walk in the park. KEEP ROCKIN!!!!!!

[@levicashrocker]

very refreshing..love it!

[@OldTooly]

So wonderful. Not a bunch of whiny brats but kids with talent who obviously also have the where with all to stay focused, and practice to learn their craft. Not in some infantile virtual reality, but right here where things actually count for something. Music is one of mankind's greatest accomplishments and has no negative connotations (save for the hateful content in rap and death metal for example). But the mind and soul are enriched. Emotions are communicated in ways that are often very personal but can also bring people together. These kids are a breath of fresh air, May you always keep playing for yourself and the rest of us to be inspired by.

Damn, as a 62 years old man, hearing today's kids playing some good old fashioned rock is already a treat, but when they are THAT good, I can just rest assured that there are plenty of kids that will craft serious musicianship to perpetuate, THEN create good music for years to come. Bless those kids, and damn, carry on, you're doing a damn good job, all of you !

[@tarmaque]

Any band with Ellen and Yoyoka as a foundation is lucky, and the rest of them are more than up to the task! Guitars are spot on, and Vinya can sure belt it out. Give her voice a few more years to mature and she'll be winning awards. Can she cover some Ann Wilson? Only time will tell!

[@MortenNilsen-i2g]

Ann Wilson is boring compared to this young star. 😎 😎

[@georgeglass3680]

Backup vocals needed more punch but yeah. The bass was a bit forward but, I like a strong bass that often gets mixed down and it's Ellens channel. Even if not, like I said, I like big bass and I cannot lie 😛 apologies to Sir Mixalot.

[@GHRiz]

@@TobyCatVA I actually went looking for a mix related comment to say exactly this. The mix on Hysteria was literal perfection, but the BGVs are really buried in this mix. I am totally picking nits though, it's still a fantastic performance and a fantastic recording. I also agree that the bass forward is always great, as bass is usually buried in most mixes as well, but definitely not here.

[@merrillquintrell8133]

It never ceases to amaze me what kids can accomplish if just given the opportunity. Going a different direction than musical talent, I teach advanced driving skills to teens on a racetrack in Virginia. You would be shocked at how quickly many can master an absolutely stellar level of car control skills that easily surpass the abilities of most drivers on the roads today. Young people can handle way more complex tasks and responsibilities than we give them credit.

The airwaves couldn't do justice to thier talents and the conert left me in total amazement . Bands of tha era had unmatched talent and creativity... like Fleetwood Mac , Meatloaf , Queen , Chicago , Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band ( incredible -you must hear LIVE BULLET ) . I don't think that era will ever be matched . PK

So happy to see you playing more songs together. You really found each other and perfectly blend. Each of you shines in what you do, without taking the spotlight from the others. Just a perfest blend. And Vinya, I really have to say, follow that road. You found your songs and sound in this project and really stepped up. Not saying your solo work was bad at all or anything, but in this project, it feels like you somehow "unlocked" and really let go in pure joy. Dare to set it all free, to belt, to have presence in the soft and quiet. You have the right ones at your side. Hope this is only the start of something big, lasting for ages.
