JEFF SCOTT SOTO Performs With Y&T In California

August 6, 2007

Legendary hard rock vocalist Jeff Scott Soto (YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, TALISMAN, JOURNEY) joined Y&T on stage this past Saturday, August 4 at the second of two special sold-out shows at the Little Fox in Redwood City, California that were arranged just for the longtime fans of the band. "There were many nostalgic raffles and surprises for the two nights including a raffle for a lucky audience member both nights to be brought up on stage to sing a Y&T song of their choice with their heroes," reads a posting on Jeff Scott Soto's web site. "To the audiences surprise on the Saturday night show, a second raffle ticket was called and none other than our own [Jeff Scott Soto] called out from the audience — he had the lucky ticket with no one realizing it was him until he hit the stage... the audience let out a roar of surprise (yes folks, it was pre-planned via invitiation from the band days earlier) and they proceeded to play 'Open Fire', 'Don't Stop Running' and 'Mean Streak'. Other surprises on stage were WHITESNAKE keyboardist Timothy Drury for one song with the band as well as original guitarist and Y&T member Joey Alves."

A posting on Jeff's web site adds, "It was a dream for Jeff to sing with this special band as he has been a longtime fan since the early '80s. Dave Meniketti, singer of Y&T, will return the favor and join Jeff Scott Soto and band for some jamming and songs when they appear at the Little Fox on Tuesday, September 25th."
