Radio personality Steve Raymond of Rock 100.7 WZXL New Jersey writes “Nicky Rich is dead-on for Dave Grohl, look, moves, energy and sound”. Rock & Brews San Manuel Casino (owned by Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley of Kiss) says “Fooz Fighters are so similar to the actual band, you’ll be convinced you’re watching Dave Grohl and Company!”.

Since forming in 2014, FOOZ FIGHTERS have become one of the nation’s top tribute bands playing to packed crowds at concert halls, festivals and casino’s including their 2017 east coast tour with headlining shows at the Golden Nugget in Atlantic City, NJ and Long Island, NY.

Mike Masse‘ Lead vocalist, piano, acoustic guitar) is an internationally acclaimed acoustic artist, known for his epic performances of classic rock covers. He initially gained recognition for his repertoire of covers posted on his YouTube channel, which now has over 350,000 subscribers and over 135 million views. Legends of rock have expressed their love and gratitude for Mike’s renditions of their classic songs.  Toto cites his cover of “Africa” as their favorite.  He can be seen performing at various private and public events around Denver and the world, including sold-out shows in Europe and the U.S.  Mike has performed as a vocalist with original members of the band Boston, doing a set of all classic Boston songs, some of the most challenging rock vocals ever recorded.

Mike Johnson (lead guitar, backing vocals), guitarist and composer, has been performing for over 50 years.  While he studied classical and electronic music, he was raised on Beatles music and is mainly self-taught in guitar and composition.  Mike is the founder and leader of the internationally celebrated “avant-rock” group Thinking Plague, with whom he has written and produced eight CDs, two LPs, and tracks on various compilations.  He is also a member of the “experimental folk-jazz-rock” group, Hamster Theatre, with whom he has recorded three studio and one live CDs.  Mike has performed all over the U.S. and Europe, and has recorded with The Science Group (France), Yugen (Italy), Fred Frith (Henry Cow), David Shamrock (Sleepytime Gorilla Museum), Dave Willey, Janet Feder, and many others.

Ron Perron (bass, backing vocals) started playing in 9th grade, and has been performing ever since, including with jazz greats Clark Terry and Bill Watrous.  He’s been in numerous rock bands throughout the country, including Sage, Infinity, Empire and NC-17, with whom he released a feature-length documentary entitled “Won’t Anybody Listen.”  Currently Ron plays with the progressive rock group Stencil Forest, and has been working with Rubber Souls since their inception.

Jon Farmer (drums)

Jon Stubbs (keyboard, guitar, vocals) has a passion for musical discovery, for himself and for his students.  He is compelled by unusual rhythms, soul-penetrating chords, gorgeous melodies, evocative sounds, and not-too-ripe watermelon.  He can currently be found teaching music to kids of all ages, on a bunch of different instruments.  Jon has composed music for theater, dance productions, and several television series.  He performs and composes for the band Hamster Theatre.  He also plays drums, guitar and bass guitar with Zimbabwe-influenced bands, Kombi and Kutandara, and plays guitar and bass guitar at Boulder Denver Theater Stage.

Hold The Line ~ A Total Toto Experience

In September, 2020, Bill Thode, keyboards, set out to found a Tribute Band, focusing on the music of Toto, a band that inspired him with their songs and musicianship.  Bill contacted Ron Perron, bassist, and placed ads in local musicians sites for drummers, guitarists, and vocalists.  We found Joseph Morton shortly thereafter, and Joe had had a personal experience involving Jeff Porcaro, original Toto drummer and an all time great, that had him highly motivated to honor Jeff’s legacy.  He quickly became “the guy” on drums.  Auditions can be a grind, as musical organizations go through lots of folks in the process who don’t quite fit, for a variety of reasons.  We had some wonderful auditions, but weren’t able to fill the positions of guitar and vocals, until…

Bill got a response from Shane Russell, a very experienced vocalist.  There was only one issue.  Shane lives in Mississippi.  And contrary to popular belief, it’s nearly impossible to audition, never mind rehearse effectively, on Zoom.  So, Shane flew into Denver to audition on the same day we had Bob Croft audition as guitarist.  I think we scared ourselves that day!  It was a really potent rehearsal, and we gave each other goosebumps!

General Admission.  Seating is first come first serve.
