    You guys are addicting, but I'll tell what I love the most, you truly look like you are having so much fun, because I can tell you put plenty of work into sounding so much like the originals. But the joys and smiles on your faces, puts a smile on my face. I know Richie, you're a busy guy, but I can't wait for more tunes, and I love the variety. Ann Marie , now "That Girl" can sing, Rock On!

    Oooh....Ann as lead vocalist is nailing it. Boston songs are tough to cover and Band Geeks do a great job. Closest thing in a cover with female vocalists is Lexington Lab Band but they did the background vocals. Band Geeks----Great musicians in the pocket, great lead vocal and sweet vocal harmonies with a good sound mix and excellent meter....love it! Great job all!

    I know Richie's busy with BOC, and I'm sure that everyone else has their own stuff going on, but you guys are a really solid group, and I feel you should be getting much better recognition for this (Band Geeks).

    Loved it! This bass player can play keyboard and drums at the same time on other videos and then play bass like a champ on this video. Amazing. Thank you for NOT auto tuning those vocals that are off in places. Those human movements, missed pitches, slides, and corrections, make the vocal live and real. Amazing all over! One suggestion - get a couple of Scholz Rockmans for songs like these. Then, you’d be blasting off! Great work.

    The band as always nails the instrument parts. However she didn't bother to learn the actual lyrics. Reading them from her phone makes that obvious. She's hitting the notes and doesn't stray off key which is pretty good. There's just no passion in it and it comes across as limp. You can always tell when a singer doesn't mean what they're singing.
