Buffalo, 'Freedom', Live at Evil Invaders V, Sydney, 8 June 2013

[@davetice3708]

I think I have a right to play these songs if I wish, I was somewhat involved in their creation. We're not pretending to be Buffalo, I'm performing Buffalo songs with 3 of the best players in Australia. After decades doing other things it's great to revisit this stuff with a line-up that can cut it. Thanks Evil Invaders. BTW can't please em all.

[@donaldellis8952]

Yes Dave you have every right to play those songs. If anyone has a problem they can go toss off.

[@davetice3708]

Thank you DoomMetalSludge, I guess I'm pretty lucky with my voice, it's held up quite well considering my lifestyle; then again, I've never stopped performing and like athletes it's about maintaining match fitness and learning how best to to use what you have. I have to thank Peter Ross, Harry Brus and Paul Wheeler, who've supported me enthusiastically to replicate the drive and power of Buffalo, it would be difficult to achieve with lesser lights. Already there are plans for more shows, yeehaa.

[@timmcgrath676]

On ya Dave the best

[@davetice3708]

Damn I enjoyed this, a lot of fun revisiting those old tunes with some great players. Good news is that we've been asked to reprise our performance already, we've been contracted to perform in Melbourne on Thursday 12th September at the Corner hotel, Richmond and have agreed to do so. There is a possibility of at least one more Melbourne show; stay tuned. Anybody interested in a stand alone Sydney gig?? Adelaide, Brisbane, Perth anyone???

[@jrichards203]

Yes Dave we want you to play, still sounds great.

[@msuperegg77]

his voice still sounds great-criminally underated band

[@jabax999]

doesn't it just.

[@timmcgrath676]

The essential guide to rock The great Dave is so good out to the edge of reality

[@MrSadsack56]

my fave Buffalo song!!

[@davetice3708]

Thanks Aaron, glad to hear you discovered Buffalo and enjoy our music, you're obviously a generation or two behind me; and that's the greatest thing for me; to realize my music still has some relevance is very gratifying. When we recorded those albums (5 in all) we never thought they'd have a life longer than a year or so at best, in fact the commercial side of the music business ignored us at the time, a bit too confrontational for them; but hey here we still are.

[@runtsworth]

It's Buffalo if Dave is in it....playing Buffalo songs........and they're playing as good as Buffalo.........and the band is kicking some major ass here.

[@deadwater46]

Very well said Dave Tice, As an old time supporter and Buffalo fan, I'm sorry I missed this, it sounds great. Thanks also to furrowsofgods for uploading, an excellent job!

[@lobbyspurpleaztecs]

Saw these guys at their Melbourne show. F__k they rocked. Dave Tice still has a killer voice. Freedom is one my favs.

[@davetice3708]

pretty spooky Jon!!! I suppose it's not so surprising that you should find it somehow familiar, I'm aware that many of the Stoner/Doom bands of today trace their influences back to what Buffalo were exploring back in the 70s, which is very flattering. Back in the day we were considered too "heavy" for commercial radio and other media which we found very frustrating, it's good to know that despite this the band has retained it's credibility and is still held in high regard by aficionados..

[@aussieaaron1133]

Dave I had the pleasure to start listening to Buffalo a couple of years ago after reading Blood Sweat and Beers, it has blown me away as my music I was listening to had become stale and Buffalo has given me a new groove to listen to. Wish I was old enough to listen to you back then and of course you can play your own stuff you invented it, its yours.

[@lemthebald]

im a recent convert. hope you can get to perth. fucken full blown good shit ..haven't seen a good heavy live band since QUO in brassy bout 5 yrs ago. cooee

[@Ozmal1960]

Awesome Dave, RIP Pete. I learnt all these songs at 15yrs. Was great to finally meet you in Perth with Mark at Metros. \m/

[@davetice3708]

Thanks Nathan, it's folks like yourself that make it all worthwhile. After doing this show I'm pumped by the idea we might be able to do a few more. The boys really did a great job on the songs injecting plenty of enthusiasm and carrying me through; if the chance comes up I'd jump at it again.

[@eagleonlinetcb]

Nice work Dave & Co. Would've loved to be there, hopefully next time!

[@davetice3708]

Many thanks to those (a Majority) who expressed their displeasure with the "knocker". Thank you Nikki for telling the facts, and thanks for inviting us to participate in Evil Invaders V. It was a pleasure to be involved and a lot of enjoyment for us to play those songs and see the response from a new generation of Hard Rock fans. Surprised me how many knew all the words to songs recorded before they were born!!!!

[@dyr234]

I fucking love the energy between the bass player and guitarist

[@davidcross1010]

Great Aussie Rock. You have a sensational voice Dave Tice and the band sound awesome too. Spending my Sunday arvo watching and sharing these Buffalo tunes. Cheers

[@swinetrek]

My favourite Buffalo song from my favourite Buffalo album. Top stuff. Well done Dave. Hope you bring your show to Perth. Keep on rockin'!

[@davetice3708]

Glad you enjoyed it mate, there is footage of the full show and we'll be putting up 2 more (semi) official vids on the Buffalo Revisited site very soon. In September we're repeating the show in Melbourne where I hope to get a more professional video of the full show, hopefully we'll have a chance to release it depending on how well it turns out and if there's enough interest. Dave.

[@DoomMetalSludge]

I have to say Dave, you have really kept your voice in good shape; this sounds excellent! The influence of Buffalo continues to shine through modern doom and stoner acts in the present. Glad to see your revisiting this material.

[@nafsiammara]

Agreed. Really blew me away with how pro they are.

[@sierrahp]

One of my all-time favourite albums even after all these years. I was seven years old when Volcanic Rock was released. My best mate gave me the cassette. Pure awesomeness!

[@kelvinkim7481]

Great to hear some good old Ozzie Rock. Volcanic Rock and Only Want You For Your Body,a couple of top albums. A bit of trivia for you folks. Did you know that the album Only Want You For Your Body had to be sold in Melbourne under the counter in a brown paper bag as the cover was deemed to offensive at the time.

[@dyr234]

The song freddom sounds like a desert rock song i fucking love it!

[@dyr234]

Freedom*

[@davetice3708]

Looking good for a return to Melbourne on Friday April 18th at Ding Dong's. Hope to see you there. The band continues to get stronger and I'm working on new songs for it.

[@metalskirmish]

Dave Tice love your stuff but its been im my head for days. Give me freedom! Freedoms fine yeah! Freedom lemon, freedom lime! EXERCISE MY FREEDOM, TO SUPER SIZE MY FREEDOM! MY THUNDER THIGHS GOT FREEDOM! EXTRA FRIES OF FREEDOM YEAH! Make it freedom, make it mine! Without freedom, babies cry. Travel on to freedom now. TRAVEL ON TO FREEDOM, FREEDOM COW! People shout for freedom! Aint no doubt its freedom! I whip it out for freedom! IN HER MOUTH OF FREEDOM! Oooooh freedom deer and freedom mouse, drink freedom beer on freedom couch! We want freedom and we want it now GIVE ME FREEDOM FREEDOMCOW!

[@OzBlues21]

Good to see Dave doing some Buffalo again, revisiting his past and still capable of belting them songs out, sounds good to me, just wish I could have been in the audience appreciating this

[@davetice3708]

Hi, I see you're a Hawkwind fan, quite right too, I worked across England with Lemmy and Motorhead during the late 70s while I was singing with The Count Bishops; many a wild night and hungover drives. We and Motorhead were briefly both signed to Chiswick records at the time. Glad you enjoyed our live video, this line-up is kicking arse and we'll be touring down to Melbourne shortly; I'm hoping to do more shows in the near future, forgotten how much I enjoy playing those songs.

Amazing performance of one of my favorite songs ever. Cheers from Colombia and thanks for revisit this classics.

[@ratbag42]

found this band recently "" hope my whole street likes it as much as i do"" need more speakers.

[@brianphillips9152]

Tice should go on tour with Soundgarden

[@iner_peace]

Yes, he reminds me of Cornell

[@Heavypsychoverdose]

Great singing n great band Ticey

[@Silvert0ngueS]

Of coarse it would've been unreal to see some more original members play but what can ya do. I was just stoked seeing these songs played live and Dave mate you still got the voice man! I couldn't stop smiling through the set

[@jmwclw]

Great job Dave! Just "discovered" Buffalo as a link off of another stoner rock video, but it feels like I have been listening to you my whole life.

[@moisesureta5845]

Lo mejor que hay en música.

[@fawzisalaho4622]

STILL GREAT

[@jabax999]

!!! 2013 wow time sure flies but Dave's still at it...Yeah! Excellent version. Well done, I like it. Seriously good copy of my original solo. I probably wouldn't play it that accurately now myself.Played with some real spirit too. I know there's a new line up now ( Oct 2017) which is also very good. I suggest have a look. By the was I have a new CD called NEED4LOUD, some on youtube for your appraisal ...john baxter

[@metalskirmish]

jabax999 you made freedom! Freedoms fine! Freedom in a freedom lime! Yall made freedom so im happy now THANKS FOR FREEDOM FREEDOMCOW!

[@blueshound611]

would've been great if they'd got John Baxter and Jimmy Economou back as well, bloody good performance though, one of my favourite Aussie bands from this era, great to see them play again

[@safeashouses211]

Hi Dave, I started listening to Buffalo around 5 years ago after coming across Shylock on KZbin. Since then you've been one of my favourite vocalists and your voice still sounds great today. Glad to hear more gigs are planned, but I'm on the other side of the world, so I'll keep a look out on youtube!

[@davetice3708]

The current line-up of the Dave Tice Band already have a DVD of a live show (self produced) which is a taster really and in very small numbers, I've written new songs for the band and intend to record sometime soon; in fact I have done a number of albums with different groups of players since returning to Oz; if Buffalo Revisited does more shows I'll arrange a live recording soon too..

[@MrSadsack56]

so how is the new stuff going with Ripple Music .. all best Dave Tice

[@davetice3708]

@@MrSadsack56 Planned release date for a Buffalo (revisited) live album of the Volcanic Rock 45th anniversary show is January 2022. Ripple will be starting to make announcements quite soon and I believe they plan to put out a single as promo prior to that release. I have to say I'm impressed by their enthusiasm and the work they're putting into it. keep an eye on their Facebook and web pages.

[@jabax999]

Just for the record Dave is the only original member from the Aussie 70s Buffalo.

[@MURDR63]

Guitarist, correct?

[@Jurista83]

Come to Sweden!!!!!

[@69stepe]

This is a great bootleg!! I wish i had the whole concert!! ;) Cheers from Québec Dave!!

[@safeashouses211]

Thanks for the info. I'd definitely buy a Buffalo Revisited live album, too!

[@safeashouses211]

Oh yes, The Count Bishops, I've seen the Top of the Pops clip from 1978! I also enjoy the videos of you and Mark Evans. Any chance of your current band recording new material?

[@davidcross1010]

Sorry about the multiple posts...it kept saying try again Please delete the other 2 haha. Cheers

[@metalskirmish]

TRAVEL OOOOOON FREEDOM COW! Yeah!

[@buffalojag]

And you should know a lot better, Eagle!

[@PaBetto1]

Man!

[@Ozmal1960]

Actually your guitarist does a great job of covering Baxter's parts.

[@davetice3708]

Melbourne gig postponed for now.

[@stephenp.8589]

are you really the great Dave Tice?

[@davetice3708]

Stephen P. Hiya Stephen, great is not a word I'd use to describe myself, these are things best left to others to decide. However, I am the same bloke who wrote/sang all the Buffalo records. Howdi do!

[@Harland_Globetrotter]

Dave Tice dude- i never heard your group till one day looking for some cool psych/stoner rock, and found your band- you guys fuckin rock!!!!!

[@davetice3708]

Dive Master Harland Thanks Harland, glad you found us. You'll find quite a few videos on KZbin, enjoy. Dave Tice.

[@diegoduque2760]

Dave Tice You've got a powerful voice, you're one of my influences to keep singing and playing hard rock. Thank you and cheers from Colombia! It would be nice to see you here!

[@cuthulhu6708]

any chance of them touring America?

[@kelvinkim7481]

Is there anymore clips of Buffalo from the concert available,would love to see some more

[@PopeShaitan]

FUCKING KILLER!!!

[@PeSauce]

How uninformed Mr.Buffalojag. Seems no one is interested until there is a gig huh? Way to go, know none of the story then bag people on the internet?? Well done mate

[@buffalojag]

This is NOT Buffalo. This is the Dave Tice Band number 41! The rest of the band, John Baxter, Jimmy Economou and Alan Milano are all still alive & very capable of gigging. This band is a total misrepresentation of Buffalo & simply a money-making shame. Tice should hang his head...........
