InfluencesMGB has played or toured with such diverse acts as...bo diddley,humble pie,mountain,spirit,yes,rem, the ramones,roger mcguinn,john mellencamp,marshall crenshaw,eric johnson,jj cale,dr. john,mick taylor,pat benatar,the B-52s,los lobos,denny laine,the pete best band,let's active,georgia satellites,atlanta rhythm section,sweet,mother's finest,dave alvin,tinsley ellis,widespread panic,kenny loggins,randall bramblett,the replacements, the romantics,alex chilton,fishbone,the db's,chris spedding,patti smith,steve forbert,delbert mcclinton,the dixie dregs,geoff guthrie,hampton grease band,the ventures,the candymen,son's of champlin,eugene chadbourne,black oak arkansas,mose jones,hydra,matt guitar murphy,the temptations,and many,many more...we can't remember..can you ??
Sounds Like...."at the time we started,we were inspired by the excitement of the beatles,the power of the who,and the songwriting of the kinks..so in our minds we'll never be half that good..but half that good is GOOD..we did it long enough that we became that... we just wanted to be in a group,never thinking where it might take us--and look where it has--the guitar gave me a job,found my wife, raised my kids..the least i can do is play it best i can for anyone who listens... when trying to press those first notes to "green onions" on my $25 guitar in 64,someone had said,"someday you'll stand on the planks at the cavern,or where jimi stood at the marquee,or the many rock festivals,and 40 years later you'll play the world, singing songs you wrote",i'd say you're dreaming,but bring it on..." rock and roll still dreaming MGB 2007

   About Michael Guthrie Band
the last of a dying breed rock band formed in europe in the 60s-and still alive to tell the story--the MGB has toured all over the world ,spearheaded underground guitar rock to a legion of fans worldwide ,and with albums including "direct hits","banned in america","right honourable friend",and "live at the cavern",the band has been described by rolling stone as one of the top 10 powerpop bands of all time. with new songs in the works,and the classics starting to be released on cd in 2005,the band is getting back to where they once belonged,and with the addition of heir apparent jon on bass,the MGB has quickly gained the reputation of an explosive live act---carrying it on to the next generation.

Enjoyed listening to you guys Sat night, you guys sure got the crowd going that night I wished the set could have lasted longer. I guess we have had our heads in the sand all these years for not coming to hear you before now.
I hope you have a great tour in Europe!

Hello MGB,
I think I'm going to miss your IPO spot as I'm only there on the 20th and 25th this year :-(
Have a good trip to England anyhow.
