For a dead guy he sure is busy. He's not let anyone know he's dead yet cuz he keeps showin' up for gigs.

This (their allegedly being dead) is a running gag with Richard Marx, Juice Newton and a couple of other singers who have fallen off of the radar.

I tore up the back country roads jamming to their music as I reached adulthood. Flirting With Disaster, along with Slow Ride were anthems of tht day.

RIP.

I met them at Toad's Place in a private showing, when that fat guy replaced Danny Brown.

Same place Jenna Bush got carded and lost her ID in New Haven.

Molly Hatchet put out some good-quality southern rock back when that venue was the only thing putting out decent rock music.

If you want a long life, never be a rock musician.

"Andy Gibb and the list goes on and on and on of dead musicians. When WILL this madness end?"

I know what you mean. I still miss Bach...

Too bad. One of the best lesser known Southern Rock bands out there.

"Dreams" is one of the best covers I've heard. I actually think it's better than the original, and the Allman Bros are one of my favorites.

MH's "Dreams" certainly rocks harder than the AB's (original) version, but I don't know about it being better. Both are tremendous.

Have you heard the unplugged version of Dreams from the Devil's Canyon CD?

Just incredible.

I always wondered where they got the name Molly Hatchett. Now I know.

Good band, good drummer, Bruce Crump, who I think is also having some serious health problems.

I thought this guy had a great voice, really cool and tough...everyone had a Molly Htachet record growing up in Western PA...

RIP
