668.0. "Shoot Shoot" by NUTMEG::MCDONALD () Fri Sep 15 1989 17:29

     For all you Boston area rockers....
    
    There is a great new band in town to check out called SHOOT SHOOT.
    They have played a few gigs around town... CLUB 3, Bunrattys,
    and they opened for SKID ROW at the Channel (1st band, for those
    of you there.)  The lead singer did a year tour with AEROSMITH,
    playing keyboards and sang background vocals and now is involved
    in this new project.  They SOUND GREAT and LOOK GREAT and will be
    playing :
    
    Tues. Sept 26 at the Paradise doors open at 8
    Sat.  Oct. 7 Club 3 in Sommerville 11:00
    Sat.  Oct. 28 Bunrattys in Alston 11:00
    
    CHECK IT OUT and mention at the door that you are 
    there to see SHOOT SHOOT

    Just a reminder that the SHOOT SHOOT gig is tonight at the paradise.
                                     
    Although I didn't get a chance to read the comments about the name,
    I agree with the comments made in 668.3.  Anyway, it is a name you
    won't forget.  It kinda sticks in your head.

668.8I'll give 'em a breakUSCTR1::JZAGERTue Oct 10 1989 16:5017
    
    That's the ticket, good management can get a mediocre band alot
    of good things.  I'm not saying these guys are bad.  They're not,
    they are actually just mediocre, nothing to brag about, but nothing
    to write home about either.  They do have some potential, I have
    to admit.  Talented strat playing guitarist and a better than average
    singer that trys everything to get the audience into them,
    unfortunately it didn't work at the Skid's show at the channel,
    but I'll give 'em a break because they were asked to do the show
    only a few hours before it actually happened.  If I remember right
    Pieces was supposed to play and someone was sick.  You want to see
    a band that has the most potential in Boston right now, go see a
    Pieces show.  Very, Very Good Band!

668.9best of both bandsNUTMEG::MCDONALDFri Oct 20 1989 15:488
    
    As a matter of fact, SHOOT SHOOT is playing with Pieces on Sat.
    the 28th at Bunrattys in Alston, they go on at 11.  So if you want
    the best of both bands, give em another chance and come give them
    your support.
    
    Then.... if you really enjoyed the show the tape is now available
    at Tower Records in the local music section.

    Bunratty's is a cool place, and Pieces is definitely an awesome
    band, and I'm a fair guy, so I'll go a give Shoot Shoot another
    listen and tell you what I think.  Fair enuff?
    
    Mr. Ed
668.12FYICAVLRY::BUCKLove's not safeWed Jan 30 1991 19:333
    FYI -- Shoot Shoot is no longer.  Guitarist/founder Toshi Iseda has
    gone on to form a new band, called Full On!  They don't plan to  gig
    the Boston area...trying to go the Queensryche route to a record deal.
668.13PNO::HEISERSmaq IraqWed Jan 30 1991 19:331
    Did ya start lessons with Toshi yet?  
668.14time will tellCAVLRY::BUCKLove's not safeWed Jan 30 1991 19:386
    Yup.
    
    Not sure how long it will last...between him vying for a record deal,
    and our playing style are so different (he's mr. chops, I'm mr.
    melody), I'm not sure how long, or how much info I'll actually wish to
    extract from him.

668.16Toshi...man of 1,000 bands!CAVLRY::BUCKc'mon baby lets go for a rideTue Jul 23 1991 19:362
    I don't think so.  It was basically Toshi's band, and since he split, I
    don't think any else bothered to "save" it.
