Damn Yankees reunion
High Enough

[@WilsonEatsASMR]

Tommy Shaw is one of the best vocalists ever and still is incredible in his 50s

[@XfSwb5bs]

WilsonEatsASMR check him 9 yr later on never not funny (a great podcast) and he’s still got it in his bones man

[@___and_memes_for_all]

@@XfSwb5bs just saw Styx last year. It’s insane the quality of his voice

[@flights47]

I agree

[@MrsBwwjd]

love love love this still in 2023

[@jnix38]

Tommy's voice hasn't changed in close to 40 years. How impressive that he can still pull off the high notes.

[@mikerobinson938]

30 years

[@ellisparrish5002]

You must be watching a different video than this. 🤔 Or you’re drunk. 😆

Tommy lives clean. Vegetarian, even.

[@umakara55]

Amazing Tommy Shaw.... He never gets old

[@shesingsalldaylong8737]

Jack Blades voice...he is a force as a frontman and I love the way he plays the bass like a guitar, not just a bass. ❤️

[@catherineferguson7646]

He is not playing base. He is playing acoustic guitar. The drummer is playing a bongo type of drum.

[@Maxharddrive64]

The chemistry is still there.

[@sharrybucholz2045]

Love those Damn Yankees I would love to see them together one last time

[@Hornet85]

It was a reunion after such a long time, I don't think anyone expected them to put on a perfect performance. They were just there to have fun with the fans, and it looks like everyone did.

[@johnniec2861]

Professionals find a way to get it done !! :)

[@tmurra2]

We saw them i"m guessing around 1995 They were amazing! High enough is one of the best rock ballads ever written!

[@andysetiawan680]

Miss 'em back in 2022

[@brendacampbell3879]

I absolutely love this song! Yesterday is just a memory!

[@GodIHateYouKenny]

Blades & Shaw still harmonizing the heck out of it, nearly 20 years after the sing was released! Awesome. Saw them twice in the early 90s. Great stuff.

[@rd1084]

God I hope they put it all together again!!! This truly was a super group. Great songs, great sound, and great talent.

[@margaritavaldiviaseller-dc4fi]

Que recuerdos me trae esta canción...

[@jaylkeene8236]

If you people scroll down to 3yrs ago, DAMN YANKEE left a message for you all. It was Jack Blades, 2010

[@900bug]

TEDS OUT OF THIS MIND!! LOVE IT!!

[@stevenkh1]

@tpowell453 "That’s what he does every time he gets on stage. (laughing) That’s Ted Nugent...With the Damn Yankees, that’s really fun, because there were no egos there, nobody was trying to outdo the other guy or anything like that. All we ever wanted to do was be the best that we could be, and we just got together and wrote all those songs, and then got up on stage and started playing, and let Ted do his Ted thing. I wouldn’t want Ted to calm down one bit." - Jack Blades, 2010

[@Deucealive75]

I like the way Ted was playing. It sounds like he was trying to get some kind of low end into the song. Usually, no bass, no low end. Not here. Good job Ted!

[@johnniec2861]

you should listen to his double live gonzo album from the 70s he had a lot of low tone solos in those songs so he can bring it to any song :)

[@Hallow334]

I so want a US reunion tour! What would be a dream concert would be Styx/Ted/Night Ranger/Damn Yankees in an all day show!

[@xanojaro5839]

And with Dennis de Young as a special guest... it would be a magic event.

[@tohaz]

There has never been a better assembly of talent in rock history. Each of the 3 could front any band--and they all were able to put aside egos to do 2 KICK ASS albums.

[@johnniec2861]

all 3 were front men,, Blades with Night ranger, Shaw with styx and Nugent,, well he was his own :)

[@georgiapeach7666]

@@johnniec2861: Amboy Dukes for Ted!

[@davidbyerly9846]

Ted kills it when he plays in Damn Yankees he always looked like he had more fun with them than his solo band.

[@ruthm46]

Tommy’s voice 😍

[@pinkiewerewolf]

2020, and I'm still a Damn Yankee fan. Shit, just had a bit of an earthquake her in coastal Nor-Cal. Must have rocked that fault!

[@MrLefty91]

Tommy Shaw has been ppart of Styx since the 70's... He's still there and rocking

[@sweenykim]

I was soooo glad that DY were successful at a time when Grunge was king & hard rock wasn't. Pleasure to see these brilliant & durable artists suceed at a time when their genre of music wasn't as successful.

[@danlc95]

When this song hit in early 91, grunge was still at a distance. Not long, but DY got a head start. But yeah, I agree.

[@Cuntstantine]

They have insane chemistry together 🔥✨

[@arielgomez4464]

Wooow they still sound amazing

[@ivichang7647]

Tantos recuerdos me trae esta canción. Amo a Damn Yankees ❤❤❤❤ hermosa power ballad. Merecían más reconocimiento. Tommy y Jack armonizan tan hermoso. Todos son unos pro pro.

[@newsiemen4u]

Damn this brings back some memories!!! these guys are too good i saw tommy in germany and he is the voice that is clear and precise so is jack!!! Ted Nugent is the real American guitar hero!!!!

[@jessicafinch4091]

Tommy is an amazing musician, how is great his voice, they shoul return again, i just love this band!

[@sharrybucholz2045]

I love these guys forever and always

[@flhlpww6253]

Als hätte die Band niemals eine Pause eingelegt. Hervorragendes, musikalisches Können ❤

[@michaelmarshall1713]

Damn Yankees we be needing them back again. This is rough but they are having fun and thats what it is about.

[@DJNataraj]

Simply Amazing.

[@georgiapeach7666]

Love these guys and this tune for MANY reasons...

[@furyowen2104]

Super group......amazing.....

[@Rugbytim1]

Great song but when Tommy breaks in with his vocals it puts it over the top.

[@GodIHateYouKenny]

Rugbytim1 yeah, Jack & Tommy were fantastiic at harmonizing! Saw them twice in the early 90s. Amazing.

[@bja5150]

This was amazing....thanks for sharing...that would have been one to see live for sure.

[@seanhadgkiss1677]

Damn Yankees are awesome band from 90's

He is always smiling and chewing that gum. Even in their music videos.

[@dreamwarrior22]

Wow! FIrst song I ever learned, almost 15 years ago!

[@ZZombyWooff]

awesome. massive!!!!! thank you!!!!

[@kickitot]

I would love to see them live.

[@SteveMintonMarketing]

You Ted haters don't get it...He is "Gonzo" he is the Motor City Madman, he is what he is. And Jack, Tommy, Michael AND Ted are Damn Yankees. Trust me, they know what they got with Ted and trust me again, they wouldn't trade him for nothing and he doesn't bother them one bit.

[@nortonnewmann3711]

Nugent is a first class Dick... he just got lucky that these talented musicians put up with his bullshit...

have to be great being there seeing ted . playing live ..great song

Absolutely awesome!

[@zilam98]

awesome harmonies!

They've collaborated on their own separate albums since DY "broke up". They're all great. PERIOD

I believe this is the 1st time ive seen uncle ted play acoustic

[@Cuntstantine]

Same. And man he's rockin it

[@gracielaespinoza2562]

amazing!!

[@1dawnf]

I think for unplugged not on H1 or mTV or whatever but a cellphone video not plugged into the mics, they sound great!!

[@avillamor]

your still the best band ever! salute man!

[@acdcountryboy2124]

Hey we could all use another reunion but full on and not just acoustic, we need it!

[@kristiantolopantoruan3154]

Still miss you all...damn Yankees

[@thebronze]

Love these guys!

[@hzsweetieaim]

You should watch the Come Again video. They all bring it. I love that vid and song. It's so much fun.

[@stevenkh1]

@smitchix Tommy Shaw still has the Damn Yankees III tapes they did before they were unceremonious dropped by Warner Bros (as was Van Halen and other acts Warner Bros considered "oldies"). What's holding up a reunion is, Cartellone is in high demand as a drummer, and the other three have had their own groups they record/tour with (Styx, Night Ranger, Nugent).

[@luisalonsoecheverria]

Jack, Tommy, and Michael have all been open to a reunion. Jack and Tommy are still tight and Michael's gonna be finishing up with Skynyrd for good pretty soon. Ted's always been reluctant because doing a reunion would interfere with his hunting season, which is usually the time he spends unwinding in between his own tours.

[@rubenoctaviosanchez8286]

Gran banda❤❤

[@rico1777]

So great to see them all play together again in 2010. I recently saw Styx and Tommy Shaw sounded great. A week later I saw Night Ranger and they played High Enough. Jack Blades sounds great. This gives me hope that they will do future shows together again and hopefully record new Damn Yankees music.

[@user-xe1yj9ty5l]

You guys playing music together that's real friends

[@tojo6690]

awesome

[@reesedds]

He is such a master guitarist. None of his concerts are the same, he just closes his eyes and goes. And he could not hear because his right ear is to "balance his face off" in his words. You also have to tune differently with an acoustic and since they are tuning to a different key it makes it all the more difficult. Yanks, Ted, Styx, etc keep on kicking ass! We love you guys.

[@styx1981]

Ted can't control himself...he needs an electric. Love it!

[@henrygarza3145]

TED is and will forever be the SOUL of Rock N Roll!!

[@tybo09]

Remember that "one of these things is not like the others" thing on Sesame Street? Everytime I see Damn Yankees, I hear that song...

[@hollandampsguy]

love it !

[@pdkim4548]

Wow...still great

[@5664788]

If you listen close,..its the crowd singing with the band thats making it sound off,...But thats a good thing.

[@yuliuswijayanto843]

So damn good just like their name Damn Yankees

[@nataliaromanenko877]

The sound is terrible, but i don't worry, i loved, Damn yankees are outstanding! Thanks for sharing!

[@scarto3887]

That's the most restrained I've ever seen Big Ted lol

Those Taylor’s can take you higher...YIKES

Love how Tommy had to tell Ted what chord/key the song was in at the beginning.

[@tammywooley2635]

Best band ever

[@wheelzwheela]

Even the drummer is there!

[@Mr.56Goldtop]

Taking time off from Lynyrd Skynyrd I guess. But it's NAMM, they're probably there too.

[@kaittisakjarudsri1956]

Classic ❤😊

[@johncole015]

Tommy and Jack killer harmonies.

[@prepballfan]

What a pleasure seeing uncle Ted up there playing. The others are good to.

[@stevenkh1]

@tpowell453 Not at all - Ted makes the show FUN! And you can tell those four guys truly love and admire each other and their talents. What a great band!

[@davepatek6296]

What's up Jack!

[@MISmooth420]

I can bet anything if these guys got together they could pull a def leppard and make a album that sounds EXACTLY the way they did back then and it still be chart topper....can they handle a full touring schedule....who knows...but they could make awesome old school rock that still stands in todays time

[@gtate135]

Blades seems to be such a positive life force.

[@robertbickel6015]

Oh my god.never seen this.amazing.i seen them in Rochester .still have the hat and pins.i think it was 1981.

[@steelydan449]

Do a freaking tour boys!!!!!!!!!!!

Now can we get a friggin tour!!!!!

Hey, Blades is playing guitar! Cool.

[@jorgejavierarcefigallo2337]

[@RnRDamsel]

@stevenkh1 And for that reason alone is why the Damn Yankees always put on a kick ass show! So awesome to watch them enjoying entertaining us!

[@thoron42]

@sgl309, i think it was Dennis De Young who was the lead singer of the Styx before he went solo

[@65ALLAN7130]
