ONE VOCALIST. BOTH ERAS.

"That guy sounds like me." — Sammy Hagar, calling in live during a 2008 KFOX Radio broadcast. Hagar phoned in after Gary fronted a Hagar tribute set in the station's Battle of the Bands, hosted by Greg Kihn — the band took first place. A trained vocalist active in the Bay Area and Sacramento scenes for three decades, Gary delivers Roth's swagger and Hagar's power in the same show — the range the entire BOBW concept is built on.

Major-label recording and touring bassist with Sentinel Beast and Flotsam and Jetsam. Festival main stages include Wacken, Sweden Rock, and Bang Your Head; venue history includes London's Hammersmith Odeon, The Ritz, and Irving Plaza. Spencer still works as a hired bassist for national touring acts, and plays Michael Anthony's parts note for note. Endorsed by Hartke Amps, Dingwall Basses, Gator Cases, and Ernie Ball.

Guitarist for power metal band Niviane — three albums and multiple U.S. and Canadian tours, including the Gramercy Theater (NYC) and the Orpheum (Tampa). A fixture of the Northern California scene since the late '90s and a working guitar instructor since 2002. Mark performs on EVH guitars and amplifiers, chasing the tones the catalog demands. Endorsed by Seymour Duncan and GHS Strings.

Behind a kit for 40+ years — since hearing Neil Peart play "Tom Sawyer" in 1981. Ed has studied with Benny Greb, Todd Sucherman, and Gregg Bissonette (drummer for David Lee Roth's band), and held down regional tribute runs honoring ZZ Top, Pat Benatar, and Stevie Nicks before BOBW. He also serves as the band's monitor engineer, mixing in-ears and wedges for the full band on a Behringer Wing — every player hears exactly what they need, every night.
