I was at the 87 gig, should be worth getting as the show was amazing that day!!

Lovely I know what I'll be getting for christmas then.

I think I'll have to get this!

Wow, it's got Stargazer on it! But no Sunset Superman, which is a shame. Looks like a lovely little heavy metal package though.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

Yes it was. After Metallica and Anthrax had thrashed my head off and Blackie Lawless had hilariously featured a topless nun during the WASP set, it was nice to get back to some classic metal.

I shall be getting this.

Definite purchase.
