Angry Samoans the first time (there was good reason for not being able to remember that one).

Second time was Saxon, need to add them to my list.

I don't go to many concerts. I don't really have any friends that are into metal and going on my own seems weird.

I didn't list anyone I don't or can't remember. If I can't remember it what's the point?

was that AC/DC with Bon Scott?

Was that Humble Pie with Frampton or Clempson? Either way it was probably kick ass......

The first time I saw AC/DC was the Back In Black tour. I never saw Humble Pie with Peter Frampton either, but at least Steve Marriot was still alive. And when I saw The Who it was Kenny Jones on drums. I may be old, but I'm not that old!

Why don't you tell them about the time you saw Dio when he was in Ronnie and the Redcaps?

I was on my way to see Zeppelin w/ Derringer and Priest in July of 77' in Oakland but the car I was riding in broke down on highway 99 near Fresno. At the time it didn't seem to be that big of a deal. It was one of the last American shows of the 70's

If anybody cares.......

The only reason why I saw so many shows in the 70's was because of me being the youngest of a gang of kids. My oldest sister was 21 when I was born. I got dragged along to alot of shows early on but my desire to watch drummers play live (even if they looked like ants sometimes) drew me to find ways to tag along with my older siblings.

This past weekend....

KIX (good live band)
L.A. NOOKIE (feat. Lorraine Lewis and Mike Duda) Great cover band. Lorraine needs a sandwich.
DELTA ROSE @ The Viper Room (these kids have "it". Impressive live show)
ULTIMATUM (the best sounding show I have seen. Truly.)
DELIVERANCE (my favorite show ever. Stood right in front of JPBII the whole time. Epic.)
TROGLODYTE DAWN (great show. The festival didn't know how to take it)
BLOODGOOD (They opened with my favorite song "Out of the Darkness" How cool is that?)
