Has anyone here seen them live? I am going to see them tonight, really looking forward to it. Original line up which is a pleasant change for us in western australia, too many times we never get original line ups for whatever reason.

I didnt know those guys were still together. I never saw them live unfortunately but I always liked the band. Brian Setzer could really play that guitar!

I don't think Setzer's with them. He started that whole Big Band revival a few years ago.

We used to shoot 'em with .22's or high powered pellet rifles.

Or, if we felt extra saucy, we'd get a metal cake pan and put milk in it. Then take a long extension cord and strip one end off and alligator clip that end to the pan. We'd wait 'til three or four were drinking their milk and plug in our end of the cord. Always made for good laughs.

Stray Cats should be a cool show. Would be better if they were the opening act for Cheap Trick though................................just sayin'. Can't leave that off.

I wish I was in Australia watching the Stray Cats instead of staring at my bills.

Dirty, diseased cats whose owners abandoned them and they in turn scratch or bite young kids in the neighborhood with a possibility of carrying rabies.....yes.

Cool bands from the 80's, no.

Should be a really great show. The Stray Cats and Setzer are badass.

What a great night was had. Outdoor venue on a warm summers night, beer and bourbon flowing. Man those guys were tight, they almost sounded too good if that is possible, almost like listening to a CD. I had forgotten how good Setzer is on guitar. If any of you are just music lovers no matter the genre and you get the chance to see them, i recommend going.

Glad you had fun.

Couple years ago at the airport I see this guy with his hair slicked back, sleeves rolled up and a sleeve of tatoos. I'm thinking "who does this guy think he is, Brian Setzer?" He turns around and I guess he did, cuz it was him.
