“One of the best bands I ever saw, a legendary and inestimably important band, but more than that. Not so much a band as - well, more like a squad of gods. A God Squad. A full-on, balls-out God Squad of Rock.”
Todd Hanson, head writer - THE ONION
"Gomeroke:" that's karaoke to live music by the Gomers. Forget the canned music and bouncing ball lyrics screen. This is a real band on a real stage, in a real bar, with a real audience. What better way to fulfill the secret dream of being a rock star, or the chick singer up front?
