Oh hell you just gave me a flashback to my long hair days. Does Jackyl still do the chainsaw song? Mindcrime was one of my favorite albums. (starts digging through his cds looking for the disk)

Make sure you give us the review when you get back.

 

[Red Rock]

Hey X,
I'm jealous too!
that's a bad a$$ line-up!
Looks like towards the end of the night,
EACH night you will be able to concentrate on
all of the hairspray, lipstick, and SPANDEX!!!

Have a blast!

I will have a 1 Gig card full of photos, I expect a few celebrities, out side of music, will be back stage. You never know at a show like this.

I am currently green (a very deep shade) with envy

George Lynch is no longer with Dokken.

Dokken is in release of it's new album "Lightning Strikes Again", And are setting up a world tour up and coming.

I wish i could teleport you over here, If there were any way i could, I would

 

[firefly]

LOL...thanks X... It's funny, I have cd's or tapes of most of those bands and seeing that list was like some sort of weird flashback to my youth.

Unless you have a fair amount of spare time down here, to track down those sort of albums down, they are hard to come by now.

So many regrets...lol

My biggest one though, is not seeing Judas Priest with Rob halford out front.

Enjoy X

Wish I was there

I was lucky enough to see Judas Priest with Rob Halford, what a show!!

If you ever need a Cd, from any of your favorite bands, Just let me know, I will get it for you and ship it to you

 

[firefly]

I might just take you up on that :bingo:

Do you guys realize how lucky you are to get so many great bands playing regularly over there??




Don't know why I typed Jeff instead off George. Wicked sensations was a wicked album

Indeed we are very lucky. The UK as well, They get pretty much the same tours from bands we get.

It seems the majority of the Australia tours by bands, end up being in Perth Australia, at the venue " Challenge Arena"

 

[firefly]

It's the distance that bands have to travel that makes it cost restrictive for most bands unfortunately.

It was 17 years in between drinks down here for Aerosmith and a similar time frame for Alice Cooper as well.

Unfortunately most of those bands that are on the bill that you are going to see just don't get big enough or mainstream enough for them to warrant a tour down under. It's sad really
