Cool stories NIB. these are some friends of mine that I used to work for. Did lights, set up, occasional singing, etc.. for them. Got a record deal, recorded an album, and the label got bought out and vaporized 2 days after the release of the album. :smash:

I was never a huge fan of theirs, but I saw them open for Dio at the Providence Civic Center in 1987 or so. They were really good live. They were very loud and Udo was a real presence on stage.

They were sick live. I can't get down with the newer stuff.:hang: I think this is studio stuff over video clips but a good song regardless.

I love Accept..
It was at one of their shows in LaMores in Brooklyn where the pit was born.
There was a group of us who liked to be up front and would not take all the pushing and shoving.We Formed a semi circle around the stage to keep 8,000(4,000 too many)fans off of us..Some would try to break through when they did they regretted it..I used to mix it up several times a night."Wild as a drunk in a fight"(Bon Scott)..We had some balls back then to kick ass and then turn ur back to the crowd.Come to think of it we where not too smart.My brothers younger friends used to come up to me later on an tell me what we used to do.We used to let some of the younger smaller guys up front. We where like the gladiators,hero's.. Not my words..
I never realized,of course it's amazing I remember much of anythiing.

This photo(thats me on the left) came from a newspaper article of a movie that was made about us a few yrs ago..We had Anthrax play there a few times with other bands like Nuclear Assault..Like I mentioned Metallica and as in this picture Slayer..We had other local bands play there probably once a month.We used to house all the bands that came around.I partied with KIng Diamond,Venom,Carnivore which was Peter Steele's(band)which became Type O Negative.Raven,OverKill,And many others I can't recall.One thing I remember was my friend eating an glass only to be upstaged by Kronos of Venom eating a shotglass..We would start the party friday night an limp home sunday evening..I was the security..We would have a few hundred people come on out for some of the gigs..It was mad..I would say I have been in over 200 fights.A few of my friends roadied for Metallica.They worked for them when the equipment truck was stolen with all their gear in Boston..I remember when they booted Mustane.He was a good guy but it seemed he could not perform unless he was smashed.Not well either..I liked Dave..We didn't warm up to Kirk and his poofy hair style to easily..He did not fit In our opinion.Cliff was the best..They used my friends house as a east coast home base.They would leave their truck there a little pc of crap import.We wrecked it..we used to pull a canoe around the property with it for canoe rides..

Some friends of mine were in a band for a while and got a lot of help from these guys. Used to hang in Western Mass with them a lot.

I always liked Priest.....

Love JP..One of th best shows I ever saw.1985 3 of july in convention hall.in asbury park. the same place the club has the show at.We had 3rd row seats..There where Cherry bombs raining offa the balcony all night

my first concert was JP, New Haven Colliseum, must been about 84-85. Ever hear Sad Wings of Destiny? That was awesome stuff, they got a little cheesy as time went on.
I think I saw JP, then Dio, Deep Purple, Malmsteem, Metallica. Those big colliseum shows were great but it was so much better when I started going to the smaller clubs.

here's another for you NIB...one of my favorite covers of all time...and a little then and now..

Can't believe I missed this.

They opened for Maiden on the VirtualIX tour at Lupos,a nightclub here in Providence back in 95.Awesome show.Maiden at a nightclub.....wow!

Yeah man I keep a Chains home made cd in my truck.The live acoustic MTV stuff was great.I've like them since they emerged along with STP,Nirvana,Temple of the Dog,Pearl Jam and alot of 90's stuff.

NIB!!! too cool! I loved Metallica...the early years. Slayer, anthrax...all of them. Once in a while I have to pull out their tunes. Usually the only chick in the pit...cant believe I once was that brave (or stoooopid??) Thanks for taking me back a few.....:musc:

Anthrax...my second favorite.
