I saw the Sabbath show here last night and I was pleasantly surprised. Tony was playing  wonderfully all night, soloing JUST the way you would hope him to. Geezer's fingers were flying all over that bass like a man half his age. And Ozzy...well he's still a frontman of note. I told my kid, "Damn Ozzy will MAKE you love him, even if you weren't really in the mood to". LOL

 

Solid setlist, the 3 new tunes fit in very nicely among the old gems like Fairies and Snowblind.

 

Really this was better than it had any right to be.

No Life 'til Leather

This year we decided to celebrate Record Store Day with our friends at independent retail by taking a huge leap back in time to our humble beginnings with that little rectangle of plastic known as the "demo tape." In 1982 we recorded seven songs that became our initial calling card known as No Life 'til Leather and it led us to our first record deal . . . the rest, as you some of you may know, is history! On Record Store Day, April 18th that demo tape will be available as a limited edition cassette (yes, cassette!!) at your favorite neighborhood record store and Metallica.com.

 

I was trying to recall if I ever had No Life 'Til Leather - I don't think I did. The only rarities I have are: Whiplash (cassette), Metallistore (cassette), and The $5.98 E.P.. . . (vinyl) (I don't know how rare that is though. Probably not that rare). I guess they are going to re-master/re-release all of their albums. I may be interested - depending on how they sound. At least up through And Justice For All. . .

Still need catch Maiden at least one time --- I now live 15 minutes away from the shed they typically play at -- haven't been to a show there since the 90's, though.

 

Their DVD archival releases have been pretty good - the last one I got was Maiden England, 88 -- it's good - the documentary on disc 2 is pretty decent - the departure of Adrian Smith is discussed.

 

 

Also people upload a lot of their recent Pro-Shot shows on Dime often, which are typically fun to watch. Gers is quite the ham.

Speaking of the good old days - someone just put a Metal Church show from 1985 on Dime a Dozen. I can't recall if I ever saw them - but I am pretty sure I use to see bands at Ruthie's Inn and The Stone.

I use to have dubbed tape of their first release -- haven't listened to in since the 80s (lost it). Unbelievably my library system has the 1st one and The Human Factor in its system -- put a request in to have them brought into my local library.

 

Besides local heavy metal bands - I never saw a 'real' heavy metal show.
