Before Mötley Crüe, before RATT, even before there was a Metallica, Y&T was slogging away in sweaty rock clubs around America. When the band formed in the early 1970s, little did they know they would set the standard for hard rock bands that trailed. Many of the biggest acts of the ’80s became popular opening for headliners Y&T—and cut their teeth on the band, as evidenced by the Y&T mentions in tell-all books by acts such as Metallica and Mötley Crüe. Born in Oakland, California, Y&T is one of the San Francisco Bay Area’s own innovators of the hard rock sound. Whether performing to a festival crowd of fifty-thousand or in an intimate nightclub, Y&T’s high-energy set and passionate performances still captivate legions of fans around the globe, proving Y&T’s music timeless. Originally formed as Yesterday and Today, the initial powerhouse quartet—featuring Dave Meniketti (lead guitar/lead vocals), Phil Kennemore (bass), Leonard Haze (drums), and Joey Alves (rhythm guitar)—tore through the ’70s and ’80s with their own brand of hard rock. After two ’70s albums on London Records, they shortened their name to Y&T and released eight albums on A&M in the ’80s. Two more albums with Geffen Records marked an era of change with Jimmy DeGrasso (Alice Cooper, Suicidal Tendencies, Megadeth) on drums and Stef Burns (Alice Cooper, Berlin, Huey Lewis) on guitar. With a discography of 18 albums, three greatest hits collections, plus a boxed set, Y&T has sold over four million albums since their 1974 inception. The band’s most recent single I’m Coming Home has climbed to roughly 1.5 million views on YouTube. Y&T received extensive airplay with hits such as Forever, Rescue Me, Mean Streak, Don’t Stop Runnin’, and Summertime Girls—which played in heavy rotation on MTV. Y&T songs have been featured in a multitude of movies and television shows, including Real Genius, Out of Bounds, Baywatch, and Hunter. After five top 100 albums, songs that tipped into the 40s, two Bammie Awards, and many international television appearances, Y&T’s hits are still played on VH1 Classic and classic rock radio stations worldwide. With the passing of Kennemore, Haze, and Alves, it’s Meniketti who carries on the legacy that is Y&T. Y&T continues to tour the world, featuring the dynamic original frontman Dave Meniketti (lead guitar/lead vocals), John Nymann (guitar/vocals), Aaron Leigh (bass/vocals), and Mike Vanderhule (drums/vocals), playing songs that span the band’s five-decade career and including all the hits and fan favorites. Prepare to have your face melted.

. I’ve been attending Y&T shows since 1976. Back then they went by YESTERDAY & TODAY. I’ve seen them twenty two (22) times as YESTERDAY $ TODAY and Y&T combined. EVERY show has been ABSOLUTELY ROCK at it’s Best. These guy’s are constant artists/showman!. Dave Meniketti is a Power House vocalist and guitarist. His whole band is amazingly Tight! Treat yourself, catch a Y&T show when you get the opportunity!
Golden State Theatre Monterey, CAFue absolutamente increible, doceaba vez que los veo. Dave Meniketti es Dios sobre el escenario, nunca entenderé como llegan a ser tan desconocidos en la escena rokera. En los 80 llenaban estadios, ahora llenó Razzmatazz pero fue increible, descomunal, algo que nadie deberia perderse. Hace años empezó a correr la frase que yo ahora suscribo, quien no le gusta Y&T, no le gusta el Rock. Long life Y&T, FOREVER
Razzmatazz 2 Barcelona, SpainThe band was spot on. The music is great. The energy was awesome. The sound was spectacular for all the songs Dave Meniketti was. Really good at his guitar work. I am happy that he is 71 years old and still rocking. I had a really great time at the show. The song list was great. I knew every song and I had a really great time again.
Amphitheater At Quarry Park Rocklin, CADave and the guys were awesome as usual, what a little disappointed that Dave did not come out to meet and greet… It is what it is in the past he has always done this so it’s OK if he takes a break every now and then he deserves it he is one of the hardest working guys in the business of ever seen
Vamp'd Las Vegas, NVI have been a fan since 1981 but somehow I have never seen them play live!!! This night was a bucketlist show as I call it, they played more than 2 hours & Dave & the boys delivered the goods!!!! Dave is one the great voices in Hard Rock & he has lost none of his range like many others!!!! Spectacular show!!!
