We took a ton of pictures, but most of them didn't turn out. Since it was light outside on our side but the stage was dark, it messed up the camera focus. Too bad I wasn't brave enough to go into the pit. We probably could have gotten some great shot there - not too many people up front. We had a FANTASTIC time with you - THANK YOU!! We DEFINITELY have to do this again! Those that were missing were greatly missed though. Hopefully we can get a BIG group together for the next show in 2011!!

But you had the really really good pics. I must've took 30 pics but because of the lack of lighting, most of them didn't come out. It's too bad too because Rob ventured to our side numerous times and those shots would have kicked ass!! That is my only real disappointment. The ones I did post were the only ones worth posting. I was hoping you got some good ones and you did...for that I am really happy!!

Well, I'm so glad to hear that your side was supporting HALFORD. We couldn't see because of the pit. But our side was LAME, except for us

For me, the best part was after Devil Driver finished and they finished the change over to Halford, as soon as he arrived on stage everybody rose and cheered...gave me goose bumps. Bev and I were on Roy Z's side and it was dark, but we stood for the entire set as well as most of those around us...I was very happy about that!! All in all it was a great day!! Thanks again for such great company Pam and Mark!!

What was even funnier was some guy gave me a dirty look because I said "dumbass" and he had his 10 year old with him...... but then this same guy and his 10 year old stay for Motley Crue and the F word was used at least 50 times but THAT is OK! WTF??!?!?!? Yeah, DO NOT HECKLE THE METAL GOD around me man, I get REALLY PISSED OFF! I almost started to feel bad thinking they were real fans, but then I realized that IF they were real fans, they would know that Heart of a Lion was written by Halford/Downing/Tipton....

THANKS Bud!!! Crowd reaction was pretty much the same in Chicago, which really pissed me off. Some guys behind us kept on screaming "Play some Priest, we want Priest" after every song. They played Heart of a Lion and they started screaming it again when the song ended. I turned around and screamed at them "THAT WAS PRIEST YOU DUMBASS!!" Then they finally shut up. We were the only ones jammin' on Metal Mike's side and singing/screaming along, which he completely appreciated and smiled at us several times. Doesn't look good for a HALFORD tour I'm afraid....
As for Ozzy, he sounded really good in Chicago too. He didn't mumble, you could understand him and his voice sounded really good although it did crack once. The thing I love about Ozzy is that he is ALWAYS having fun on stage. Those parody video clips he showed before the show started were awesome! Did he bring on a little 9 year old boy to play Crazy Train at your show? This little boy was OUTSTANDING!!!! Holy Shit - he is going to be huge one day!
We tried to take video of HALFORD but we were too close to the speakers and there is just too much distortion. So THANK YOU for your video!!

Be warned...the crowd response is kind of lame...unusual for Pittsburgh.
