"It's been years since grace lit up the stage. We've all watched and waited through all the hype, all the bullshit these midgets of rock have been gambling with for years. The Cincy scene is a dying scene and has been for way too long. Thank goodness "The Belvedere Brown" has surfaced. Who knows where these guys came from, but I speak for us all when I say thanks for the refreshment. To see real rock musicians who care about their craft is quite a breath of air. It might not be clean, but it's better than the poison covers we've all been enduring. These guys come to bring the pain, everytime. I've now been to three shows, and The Brown just gets dirtier, funkier, and more beautiful. As melodically touching as they are pound-you-in-the-ear pussy hard rocking, these dudes came on a thunder cloud. Any day now, we all could have sealed the deal and come to the agreement that rock, in it's true sense, was dead. Instead, we've been given a second chance, a rebirth, a renaissance, of rock; because of one band that has the balls to stand up, rise above the bullshit, and say loud and clear for all to hear, ROCK IS. Thank you The Belvedere Brown, for keeping the faith, and for saving today's Rock Music."
