How is "New Live" going to differ from TGF? Options

[mfitz804]

I mean really. Its CCP with a different singer, throw an extra guitar player in there too. New Live is going to be CCP and a new singer. Is it just going to be the fact that the new singer is going to sing old songs?

Can I be expected to believe that CCP's music with New Live will somehow differ from CCP's music in TGF?

What's the difference going to be, really?

I suppose only time will tell.

Again it may not even be this Chris Shinn guy right?

To me he doesn't have the most unique voice, he sings a lot in that almost whispered kind of way. Ed does have an incredibly distinctive voice. And if it is Chris Shinn, whilst it may sound ok, it won't have that "this could only be one man singing" sound to it like Ed has. Which is a for better or worse kind of thing.
But I doubted Kevin Martin when I first checked out some Candlebox when it was announced that he was the singer, and I wasn't blown away and was kind of dubious. Even now I only like a handful of Candlebox songs, I much preferred his Hi Watts solo album.
But I was absolutely blown away by his performance with TGF. Whether it was the music that just lifted him up and melded so well, I'm not sure. But any doubt I had was completely shattered.
So the prospect of Chris Shinn isn't giving me goosebumps of excitement, but I am willing to give it a shot if it is him because it could just be another Kevin Martin situation.
