Kasim Sulton as part of The New Cars at The China Club - 4/28/06

On Friday 28th April Kasim Sulton played a promo gig as part of The New Cars with Todd Rundgren, Elliot Easton, Greg Hawkes and Priarie Prince at The China Club in New York City.

This gig was played in conjunction with the radio station WPLJ and fans could only win tickets through the radio station (plus the official New Cars Fan Club had two tickets to give away.

Click here to view the official website of the venue. This club is reported to only have a capacity of 500 so it was an "intimate" concert, especially as it is estimated that no more than 300 people were allowed in!

Kasim Sulton sang lead vocals on both Drive and All Mixed Up at this gig.

Comments about this gig posted on messageboards and mailing lists include:

  • Kasim's bass playing was flawless.

  • Kasim's microphone volume was too low for the vocals of All Mixed Up.

  • Kasim was out speaking with fans before the performance.

  • The show was Amazing.The band was TIGHT and were having a great time.

  • Todd and Kasim seemed to be having a good time. Elliot looked like someone from '66 and played his solos note for note. Greg looked like he was just happy to be playing Cars songs again. Todd broke guitar strings 4 times in the show.

  • They played for about 1:15 and rocked the whole time.

  • We thought the show was great!! soundcheck was too! They had a real high energy level & were tight - Prairie always helps with that too.

  • I'm not sure if they came out after the show but I know Kasim was out in the crowd before the show saying hello to some people. I was standing right in front of Kasim. Someone next to me saw him drop a pic and when he went to pick it up it said Meat Loaf on it.
