Tesla, Foreigner and Def Leppard rocked the house tonight. We won tickets in April for tonights sho

absolutely fantastic

Every song you could think of they played.

Foreigner had a contest and a local High School jazz choir got to sing with them.

Leppard played so great. Rick Allen the Thunder God kicked ass on a drum solo...there were people there of many ages and I wondered how many realized just how awesome that solo was?


vivian Campbell is still battling Leukemia but still sang and played like the rock god he is


thanks 104,5 for the tickets

Many other bands in that moment would have hired another drummer, said it was temporary and never looked back. Not my genre of first choice but they are indeed rock heroes.

Technically, while he did state the bands he saw, his sentence said every song that I, the humble reader, could think of they played and while the pronoun they refers to the bands in the title, there wasn't any qualification used when saying, every song.

It was satire.
Sometimes it takes me a little while to get the nuance of a sentence.

he found out around 2013 when they were doing Vegas. He thought it was over but it keeps coming back. Currently he tours then during breaks he has infusions and then gets back out and plays




Styx played with them until last week. We got Foreigner
