I saw VH back in 1981 (Aug 24 to be exact, yes I still have my ticket stub) and ended up working security guarding the bands door behind the stage for $50 whole dollars! I was only 20 years old but I remember it like it was yesterday. A buddy of mine worked for Kaleidoscope Productions and presented an offer I couldn't refuse when one of the security people didn't show up. I met the entire band (Roth was, and probably still is, very conceited, yet Eddie went out of his way to get me a guitar pick when I asked.

I wanted to go to VH show last night but the damn thing sold out in 10 minutes!! Oh well, guess I'll settle for Abbey Road Live tonight at the Visulite Theater. They'll be performing the entire Abbey Road album and then some. I'm still a huge Beatles fan.......till the day I die!

Max, did VH play Runnin' With The Devil or Atomic Punk? Two of my faves!

The best review I've seen so far was from the Winnepeg Sun in Canada.

Wow! I can't believe they played Little Dreamer & Somebody Get Me a Dr.. More of my VH faves. I also can't believe you remember that playlist. You must have an incredible memory!
