This bands wrote rock on a grand scale, music that needs to be played by musicians in a theater, said Sal Clemente who founded the Rock Opera with Alan Ware. We’re not putting on a staged version of the songs or doing sound-alike covers and pretending to be the original bands. At the same time, we’re not switching everything up so you can’t tell what we’re playing. We add our own energy and style to the songs, but it’s still the music you know and can sing along with.
