In 2008, an attempt to bring a later version of the band back was launched.  Didn't work. Still interesting to view! 

What is Witness Reloaded?  
During the late 1970s, 1980s, and early 1990s, a certain band took the Philadelphia, New Jersey, and Delaware area by storm. That band was known as Witness!  In 2007 and again in 2008, Witness members got together once again and performed several shows. Not only were the gigs a blast,  we found out is that there is a real need for good classic Rock & Roll in this area! Who better to fill this need then the very band that set the standard-
Witness, Reloaded !

The classic rock of Witness Reloaded includes music by Billy Joel, The Who, Jethro Tull, Genesis, Talking Heads, Yes, Pink Floyd, Peter Gabril, ZZ Top, Springsteen and many more, performed by seasoned professionals.  In addition to the solid sound, Witness Reloaded adds their own brand of classic comic relief that the band was famous for!

Some Background-

L Roy

Roy Altemus was one of the four founding members of Witness, which formed in 1977. Although other bass players played with the band, L Roy always managed to return! In addition to bass, he is also an accomplished lead singer.  
"I've played very many different venues and gigs from outside rock concerts with a crowd of 10,000 to private, in home parties with a guitarist and myself. I've also done Weddings, broadway type musicals, and Vegas type shows. 'Try the veal, we're here all week.'"
Some of the other bands Roy has played with include:
The Chatterband and Magic Elf.

Michael LaBuono

No one has spent more time on stage with Witness than Michael. He joined the band in January of 1979 and since that date Witness has not performed a single night without him! Michael is a classically trained keyboard player. 
(See a 19 year old Michael playing Root Beer Rag) 
"After the Witness party (2007), I realized how much I missed playing with the rest of the guys from the band. They are all such incredible musicians and we could play any piece of music together. The band had a niche that no other band could fill; playing classic and progressive rock better than anyone else." 
Mike also plays with Hot Ticket.

Mitch Schecter

Mitch joined Witness in 1983 and is the longest standing drummer with the band! Mitch came to us from another icon band of the time, Pegasus. Mitch is also the current guitar player for the national act, "The Rip Chords" which is famous for their hit songs, such as "Hey Little Cobra." 
He also has a solo career with his wife;
Mitch 'n' Amy 
Mitch has also performed with Fran Smith Jr. (of The Hooters/The Pedestrians), Richard Bush (of The A’s/Peace Creeps), Scot Arch (of Beatlemania Now)...among many others.

Flip Britton

Flip joined Witness in 1986, and like Mitch, came to us from another iconic band, SYN. Flip played with Witness for seven years introducing a new nerdy character to the crowd named Cecil Erkel. Flip - " It was the role of a lifetime, a culmination of everything I had experienced in my life and even some other lives.";)
Flip is also a serious accomplished musician, who in addition to being an entertaining front man, also plays Bass, Keyboards, Tenor Sax, Flute, Clarinet, Harmonica, Guitar, and Mandolin. 

Marc Britton

Marc, who is the brother of Flip, joined the band in 1987. He had also been a key member of SYN. Marc is another plethora of talent, playing synth-guitar, alto sax and shares the lead vocal responsibilities in the band.
The Britton Brothers also perform in Hot Ticket
Marc attended Indiana University and holds a degree in music.

John Dziel

JD, and his production company DAE lighting, joined Witness in 1979. JD's background was in concert lighting and sound. He had worked with many bands such as AC/DC, Cheap Trick, Thin Lizzy, REO, and The Tubes. JD was responsible for the "over-the-top" production shows that Witness became famous for.
