| "Back in the San Diego Day... highlight was opening for Buzzcocks @Iguana's/Tijuana" - Andrew |
| Charosmith (1993) |
| Cristina Chabalaba - Vocals Andrew McKeag - Guitar |
| "A one-time only Aerosmith cover band featuring a Charo impersonator (Cristina
Chabalaba) and a slew of San Diego rock & rollers- could there be a better idea ever?" - Andrew
|
Uncle Joe's Big Ol' Driver (1992-1995)
 |

| Uncle Joe's Big Ol' Driver blends the '70s Stones with '80s
alternative-garage acts like the Replacements. The San Diego band's first
album, Chick Rock, was released on Headhunter/Cargo. The band includes
Andrew McKeag and David Jass on guitar and vocals, George Vidaurri on bass
and John Spezza on drums. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide |
70 Proof (1996-?)
 |
| Kurt Bloch Mike Musburger Ben London Paul Passereli Ron Heathman Eddie Spaghetti Mark Hoyt Jim Sangster Joe Bass Shawn Allen Jason Finn Jason Staczek Andrew McKeag and probably a few more |
| The world's most frighteningly authentic 70's cover band. There were often as many as 9 on stage at any given show |
| Huge Spacebird (1996-present) |
| Mark Hoyt - Guitar Jeff Taylor - Bass Peter Landsdowne - Drums Andrew McKeag - Guitar |
| "One of the best bands in Seattle. Sound like the 80's and 90's never happened" - Andrew
|
Shuggie (1996-2006) |
| Mike Musburger - Drums Jason Staczek - Keys Phil Hurley - Bass Jeff Fielder - Bass Andrew McKeag - Guitar, Vocals Shawn Allen - Drums Rick Roberts - Bass Martin - Keys James Atkins - Bass |
| Take one part Uncle Joe's Big Ol' Driver, two parts Posies, shake
thoroughly and you have a stiff shot of Shuggie. Wedged firmly somewhere
between the MONSTER ROCK of the 70s' and the melodic grit of Minneapolis,
circa 1987,Shuggie transcends both sounds on a rock n' roll voyage all their
own. Shuggie has been described as a "guitar-fueled, Foghat meets Badfinger,
electric boogie across a Paul Westerberg landscape". On their self-titled
debut, Shuggie breaks the mold of any preconceived northwest stereotypes, to
deliver an eleven song dose of good old fashioned rock music (the kind your
older brother or sister used as a guide book through puberty). Calling
Seattle home, Shuggie summons the ghosts of everything from The Faces to Bad
Company, in an effort to carry the rock n' roll torch into the new
millennium. The only thing left to do, is sit back and cruise with Shuggie
through an eternal summer on permanent overdrive. |
