	Revenge of the 'hair bands' (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Firehouse, with its heavy metal look to go with its love ballads, became perceived as image over substance, so its record label dropped them and they dropped off the music radar screen.
		While bands like Poison had the fan base and financial base to fall back on, the smaller bands were left behind.
		The bands believe their resurgence is, in part, due to the state of popular music today.

		North Carolina's Firehouse had been one of those bands who enjoyed the ride on the hair band wave, with no-nonsense guitar driven rock and roll laced with powerfully melodic lyrics.
		Here in the year 2000, Firehouse is alive and well, and doesn't really need a huge rebirth like some of their peers because they have remained together since the tough mid-90's, turning out album after album and thrilling fans world wide with their hot live show.
		In the late summer of 2000, Firehouse released a live album "Bring 'Em Out Alive" and is now in the studio putting the finishing touches on their next studio album, due out in early 2001 on Spitfire Records.

	US band Firehouse prepares to rock northeast (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		New Delhi, Dec 9 (IANS): US band Firehouse will this week become the first major international rock band to play in India's northeast, and its members are looking forward to playing for their Indian fans and, of course, sampling Indian food.
		Ahead of Firehouse's journey to Shillong, the capital of Meghalaya, for a concert Saturday, guitarist Bill Leverty said the US band, probably best known for the ballad "Love Of A Lifetime", was "so excited to finally be able to come to India for the first time".
		Though Firehouse are criticised sometimes for lyrics that aren't contemporary and for playing music that harks back to the 1980s, Leverty believes their brand of rock is making a comeback in the US even without support from radio stations.

	Firehouse Forums - Firefighting Discussion - Interoperability?
		Just curious - how many folks are "technically" interoperable (in other words, they're all on the same radio band and type of system) with their neighboring departments - meaning that they COULD talk to the "other" folks, such as other FD's, PD units, EMS, or whatever; but because of personalities, they don't.
		After years of lobbying and political arm twisting, most opposition to this plan disappeared, and it was adopted by the FCC, thus clearing the way to move cell phones to one area, and Public safety Communications to another area, ending the interference problem.
		Between the UHF portables and vehicle repeaters to low band, there is nobody we can't talk to and nobody that can't talk to us withing a reasonable distance.

	For Whom The Brass Bell Tolls
		Though the band also suffered detractors (who continue to criticize it even to this day), those early recordings helped to launch the band’s career, making it one of the most famous and successful traditional jazz groups of all time.
		The band’s story is well-documented—in the liner notes of their recordings, in the pages of Record Changer in the ‘40s and ‘50s and in the Southern California jazz club publications of the ‘60s.
		However, there was one edition of the Firehouse Five which sounded very different from all the others....As I recall, we went to Disneyland one weekend in September, 1964 to catch the FH5+2 on their regular Saturday night job.

	Universal Wheels E-Zine Firehouse!
		We've all come from bands where we had that many people singing in the band, and when we put this band together we wanted to make sure that everybody could sing, even sing lead because we wanted our background vocals to be strong.
		I would love to be a band like say The Eagles - they've been around forever, and they have so many songs that people know and some of them are really hard-rockin', and some of them are slow and soft, and some of them are kind of twisted.
		It was cool to open for Poison too, they're a great band, they got a great show, and we learned a lot about what to do in the music business and what not to do also.

		His playing made everyone rise to a new level and there was a great amount of excitement and rejuvenation that he brought into the band.

		In proper folk music form, it's not like the band is out to get rich: Thomason worked as a high school teacher and assistant principal for much of that time (he apparently retired in 1999).
		According to Thomason, he believes that bluegrass is "band music," not the music of one individual; as a result, each performer has the opportunity to shine.
		From gospel to rollicking bluegrass, the band embraces each tune with trademark enthusiasm (though to hear Thomason tell it in one of his humorous tales, there's really only one difference between most "old-timey" songs, and it isn't found in the music).

		This album is one of the shortest produced by the band, but very unique due to its LIVE status.
		In their early live performances, the Firehouse Five Plus Two mixed their music with lots of slapstick humor, so much so that their genuine musicianship was often overlooked.
		Most of their recordings were done in studio, and the clowning which was an essential part of the Firehouse Five experience was largely filtered out.
