Hardline in Stuttgart

Hardline are an American hard-rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1991 by brothers Johnny and Joey Gioeli. Their debut album, Double Eclipse, featured Journey guitarist Neal Schon and established the band through songs including “Hot Cherie,” “Takin’ Me Down” and “Can’t Find My Way.” Johnny Gioeli has remained the central singer across the band’s later albums and lineups. In 1992, Hardline supported Van Halen during the touring cycle for Double Eclipse. The band’s 2002 appearance at The Gods festival was later released as Live at the Gods Festival 2002, and another performance was documented on Live at the Firefest after Hardline played Firefest in Nottingham.
