Hey I'll be there but we probably wont have time beforehand to meet up. We'll be in the 7th row if you want to come up and say hey. Not sure of the seat numbers, have to get back to you on that.
I'll be easy to spot though, wearing my black & purple shirt like the one Ronnie has. |

We're meeting at the Backyard Grill Rest./Sports bar in Manassas before the show. Plan to take the 'back way' to the venue through Manassas. Backyard Grill is at the third light (second major intersection) going South on 234-Business (Exit 47A on Rt. 66). It used to be the old Damon's.

Thanks but I doubt we'll make it. I get off work between 7-8 that morning and need to get a couple hours sleep. It's about a 2hr drive for us and we want to be there by the time doors open so it's gonna be kinda tight. If by chance we run early we'll stop by, what time are you planning to be there and how we will know you? |

3:00pm-ish We have about 5 or more folks at this time. You can identify us by the black shirts  in the bar area. lol. I'm fresh out of DIO shirts, so I'll be wearing a Maiden gig Tshirt (NY specific).

| That actually may hit us about right. We're planning on leaving around 1pm which should put us up at the pavilion around 3pm. I'll have to go look at mapquest. We don't come up 66 we come straight up 29 all the way |

| Just looked at mapquest, guess you're coming from the north eh? We're coming from the south so it would actually be past the pavilion for us. Not very familiar with the area but printing the map so if we get there extra early we'll swing by. |

I live right in Manassas. I see what you're saying about it being a bit out of the way. If you can make it, COOL. If not, we understand. If you're running early, and want to come, I'd suggest taking Rt. 66 after you come up 29. Its' just two exits.
If we don't see you, enjoy the show!
Rock on...

Thanks but all is good with the world right now!!! That has got to be by far the best concert I have ever seen! I could have left after H&H and thought nothing of it (not saying I didnt enjoy JP, just H&H was that good!)
I hit that sweet spot, everyone and everything dissapeared and it was just me and Ronnie for 70 minutes! I felt the music with him and his voice was a part of me. When i did break and look up at him he was smiling at me. What more could a person ask for?
I think he saw it in me too, he really played to my camera and it was just like the connection was there. I know it sounds like I was tripping but I was clean & sober (no $10 beers for me!) It was a better experience then any drug I've ever done. If anyone who reads this has RJD connections tell him thank you.
oh, I believe the setlist was the same as Camden except they dropped Ear In The Wall and added the encore of Neon Knights back in.
Brank hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!
Awesome, just Awesome! |

I agree. I think H&H (DIO/Black Sabbath) took the show. Priest just wasn't as good as H&H. Too much posing in my opinion. H&H just simply ROCKED OUT!!! It was especially great for me to hear the tunes from Mob Rules which was when I started getting into Sabbath. Wow........they really put on a great a show, and those solos by Tony were outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!!. These dudes haven't lost a step. Damn good to see them, worth every penny.
