Eric Stuart Band. I first became aware of Eric Stuart as a Voice Actor on several of my daughter's favorite TV shows as she was growing up; Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh, for the most part. Imagine my surprise in discovering that the voice of Brock, James, Seto Kaiba and others was also a musical artist of considerable talent! I was able to find and purchase "Blue, Dressed in Black' and became an instant fan. I have since collected "BombShellShocked" and "In the County of Kings"; I know that several of his fans were disappointed by the recent shift away from metal rock to a more Country sound, but I learned to first tolerate, then enjoy some Country music back in the '80's when I worked at a radio station with a Country Gold/Rock format -- and 'County of Kings' came out at a time when I was in an intensely Country Western state of mind.
The Eric Stuart Band was based out of New York City, but apparently has migrated to Nashville, TN with in the past year. Coincidentally, my daughter's current boyfriend lives in Nashville, and recently we had discussed taking a post-graduation road trip down to Nashville to visit said boyfriend and wouldn't you know? The Eric Stuart band was scheduled to perform that week....
The plans fell through, but I had fun teasing my daughter that I was planning to e-mail Mr. Stuart and let him know that one of his fans was going to be in town, she'd just turned 19, and could he maybe sing "Two Perfect Girls" for her? Hmmmm, maybe just as well we didn't -- Daughter KNOWS where I sleep!
Still, would have been a great trip!
