Definitely check out their other stuff. Those guys can play. |

No doubt very underrated musicians. |

The Hanson bros, they got talent... but, sometimes that's not enough.

THey played Chuck Berry's "Run Run Rudolph"... a pretty basic song, but they had pretty good chops and it sounded great. I then saw some other "cooler than Hanson" band on a different show that night (I admit, I was one of those people that liked to bash the "MMmmmBoppers" to my ex's little sister......) Third Eye Blind, or someone like that, and they sounded like dirt. Idunno if they just had a bad night or if they just stunk live or could only put something good together in a studio, but I gotta admit: after that, if someone offered me tickets I'da chosen Hanson... And I am an old guy.

FWIW, one of the Hanson brothers in the film was actually NAMED Dave Hanson, and played for several years for the minor league Birmingham Bulls/South Stars. I used to have season tickets.
The guy was a real character.
