I only ever got to see him with Sabs, on both the Heaven and Hell and Mob Rules tour. Neither impressed me at the timeIt's been an RJD week for me all week so far.
His first 4 solo albums back to back most days... over the top? You betchya!
Really into Dream Evil at the moment... Naked In The Rain is a top class song.
A couple of months ago I got round to getting the Live at Donnington 2 disc set... I was at both shows.
imvho, the greatest Hard Rock vocalist of all time.
Probably the Venue
. the sound in that place was always had to mix correctly, and just as they were getting it right the dry ice machine blew frozen C02 chucks all over Vinnie Applesauce and the drum kit. The gig was stopped whilst he got his burns attended to and the crew mopped down the stage. They never really got back into the swing of things after the restart, and did a very short set. Understandably so, considering.Yep, SBH, not one of the best places for a gig. Just a bloody big barn.Probably the Venue
I was at the Bingley Hall in Stafford - cattle market by day, rock venue by night
It was early January and the place was freezing, and the only way the crowd could keep warm was throwing plastic bottles at the support band... who I think were called the Starfighters. Never to be heard of them again after that night.
Heaven and Hell Tour - De Montfort in Leicester was the venue. on hindsight it was far better tha nthe above
