I was going to buy tickets for Iced Earth and found out it was sold out. I'll just see them in Philly since it's not sold out. The thing that through me off was on the BB Kings website it says "Backed up with a full orchestra and led by the vocals of new singer Tim Owens (ex-Judas Priest)". I looked on their website and it mentions nothing of there being a full orchestra. Can anyone tell me if this is at every show or just the NY show.
 
I'll be at the Phillly show, and looking forward to it! Believe me, they couldn't fit a four piece orchestra in the Trocadaro where the show is, let alone a full one.

Repoman, that's what I want to hear as well. I know Ripper will perform admirably on the thrashy tunes such as Violate or Burning Times. I want to hear how he handles the emotions of Melancholy, A Question of Heaven, I Died for You, or the opening to Dracula.

That was what Barlow excelled at. I wonder if Ripper can pull them off.
