Dewey Bunnell of America -- who are celebrating 50 years in 2010 -- remembers their Spinal Tap moment.Every band has one.
Dewey says, "We were taping a Bob Hope Special on the UCLA campus with Bob, John Wayne and Aretha Franklin in front of a large crowd of students who assumed we were performing live, when in fact we were lip-syncing 'Sister Golden Hair.' As the taping was in progress, there was a technical problem, so they stopped the tape to restart the shoot. The students were shocked and voiced their displeasure at this reality! We made it clear we'd return for a full LIVE CONCERT soon... which we did!"
America will perform at Waco Hall on April 16th with the Waco Symphony Orchestra as part of their 50th anniversary celebration this year.
