In the spring of 1998, Billy’s manager got the news that E Streeter Clarence Clemons was looking for a band. The Livesays auditioned that night, and Billy got the job, playing lead guitar and sharing the singing duties in the Clarence Clemons Band (now called The Temple Of Soul). The Temple Of Soul have earned a reputation for their ardent live performances and their special guests, including “The Boss” himself and Little Steven.  The Temple Of Soul were featured as the "house" band for the 2000 and 2001 ESPY Awards on ESPN! A four show run at Asbury Park's famous "Stone Pony"  was recorded live in September 2001. The release date was November 5, 2001 and entitled, "Live In Asbury Park, Volume 1". "Live in Asbury Park, Volume 2" was released in January of 2004, featuring Bruce Springsteen.
