Cris: When you joined Y&T, what did you learn about this band that you didn't know as an outside fan?
Mike Vanderhule of Y&T: I'd say first off -- just in my audition playing together -- how good they are. They are a really good bunch of musicians. You know how it is when you start playing with other people… how you interact and how it grooves… just incredible. And then what a great singer Dave Meniketti is. The guy's incredible night after night. He's always spot on and sounds better than he did when he was 18 years old.
