Enuff Z’Nuff announce dates for ‘Glam Slam Metal Tour Part II’ with The Quireboys and Bad Marriage
Enuff Z’Nuff consisting of lead vocalist / bassist Chip Z’Nuff, lead guitarist Tory Stoffregen, drummer Daniel B. Hill and rhythm guitarist Jason K. Herman have announced North American dates for their Glam Slam Metal Tour II with support from The Quireboys and Bad Marriage.
Sleaze Roxx caught Enuff Z’Nuff live in Thomasville, Pennsylvania, USA back on September 10, 2022 and stated in its concert review:
“At centerstage, Chip appeared to be in a state of pure Zen as he harmoniously popped off lead vocals to one hit after another while his fingers danced the strings of his bass like a spider traversing its web. It should be noted that while Chip Z’Nuff handles the lead vocals, the band essentially has three lead vocalists in its ranks with guitarists Tony Fennell and Tory Stoffregen in the fold. Both of them handle lead vocals in their separate side projects (When In Rome, Sneaky Doodle, New Black 7, etc.) and bring those vocal qualities to the table in their work with Enuff Z’Nuff to create the huge harmonies that are a cornerstone of what we hear. Imagine being able to play intricate guitar solos while simultaneously singing along like a bird and making it look easy. That’s Tory Stoffregen in a nutshell.
September 10th was a special occasion to see Enuff Z’Nuff. Try as he may to keep it a secret, it was Chip Z’Nuff‘s birthday. Following an abbreviated version of “Tush”, an Enuff Z’Nuff themed cake (complete with sparklers) was brought up on stage as the audience wished him a happy birthday. Following what I jokingly refer to as the band’s contractual obligation to play “Fly High Michelle” and “New Thing”, the true highlight of Enuff Z’Nuff‘s show was hearing “Love Train” from their third (and criminally underrated) album Animals With Human Intelligence. This record marked a turbulent time in the band’s history however they rose above the chaos to deliver on of 1993’s best LPs despite a musical climate that, at the time, was not at all favorable to new music by veteran hard rock acts. Cover to cover, Animals With Human Intelligence is loaded with masterfully written pop songs that are cleverly disguised as hard rock compositions. I like the deep cuts, and hearing the album represented in Enuff Z’Nuff‘s set was elation for me as a lifelong fan. The same can be said of this experience catching one of my favorite bands in an intimate setting such as the Racehorse Tavern. With the band being relegated mostly to huge festivals, theaters, and package bills of late, this rare opportunity to see them rock a compact club is one that I won’t forget any time soon.”
