Exodus on Stage At

Dressed in black jackets
with black slacks and red ties (males) - white dresses
(females) - defending champions Exodus was dressed to kill.
Exodus again demonstrated why they are one of the most
efficient, polished and respected music organizations in the
world. A case study in how to get the job done.
Their no nonsense approach is legendary.

Skiffle Bunch on
Stage At Madison Square Garden WSMF 2005 -- cp |
Dressed in
white jackets with black slacks and red ties (males) - all white
dresses (females) - Skiffle Bunch looked stunning. Coming in
as one of the favorites SB was beaten by a mere 3 points.
They tied with Exodus for Best Tune of Choice. Liam Teague
is on hand to drop a solo while the band takes on a frozen pose.
Very animated with choreographed moments that highlight and
dramatize the music. The original piece written by Len
"Boogsie" Sharpe gave us flashes of pure genius.
