Now then, does anyone know where they got their name from and why?

Yesterday and today. They are from close by here. I've seen a lot of live bands and they are one of the best live performers ever. I've seen them 7 or 8 times.

And their other big hit that got more radio airplay, that's a bit more of a "pop" tune. This one came after Mean Streak:

"My hair is long I got my red Reebok's on. Yeah I'm looking pretty cool!"
"The Kid Goes Crazy" is one of their best songs! Shawn

I've never considered Y&T to be a metal band. Hard rock, definately...but no metal band would ever release "Summertime Girls".

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
