He is the lead singer for pedestrian. If you go to their sight you will see some live videos of him solo---www.pedestrianmusic.org

Yeah, I've seen them and know others who have and generally, people seem divided. Some really like them and others think they are too derivative.

I generally thought they sounded average and boring, but the guy I went with *really* liked them. Go figure. This is a new project of Joel's though. And it has to be said that he is an *excellent* guitarist and likable guy. I did enjoy hearing him play the guitar!

i think it also depends on whether it's a solo gig or with the band because it sounds very different. some people might like one style better. my personal opinion: solo- boring, band - less boring.

Yeah, so many factors really. But don't say solo is boring! Damien taught me otherwise! [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]
