Steve & Michael join Alice & the band for the final encore @ Oasis in Swindon, UK in 2016.

Steve speaks: “One of the greatest musical days of my life; after soundcheck I spent the afternoon hanging out with my songwriting hero, Andy Partridge​ (XTC) & his engineer Stu Rowe​, then came back to the arena and played a big rock show with Michael Monroe​ & the boys opening for Alice Cooper and finally, got called up onstage by Alice​ & his band to join them on one of the most ubiquitous rock songs of my childhood!! Pinch me…”

(Thank you Ryan Roxie​ & Tommy Henriksen​!)

In memory of Sylvain Sylvain, the heart & soul of the New York Dolls, Steve performs a medley of 2 songs that belong together for good reason – The Ronettes’ “Walking In The Rain” & the New York Dolls’ “Take A Good Look At My Good Looks” – Steve recalls the story:

“The Dolls used to jam on ‘Walking In The Rain’ at soundcheck on tour and when we ended it, Syl would keep playing this particular chord sequence, inspired by the Ronettes song. I remember telling him it was such a good feel that we should make a song out of it. When it came time to make our album “One Day It Will Please Us To Remember Even This’ the band jammed on the song idea and Johansen made up some words for it, verses and chorus, but it needed a bridge. I came up with the middle part (influenced by Al Green’s ‘Let’s Stay Together’) and – voila – the song was born.” Happy heavenly birthday Sylvain – on this Valentine’s Day and every one hereafter.
