You want to talk about regret? I went to the Solitude Aeturnus/Mercyful Fate show back in 1995... and left after Solitude Aeturnus!One of my biggest regrets was missing Motorhead / Mercyful Fate / Exciter back in the day. I believe it was the Orgasmatron tour.

Haha. What can I say? I was not a fan of the King at that time.scanners.gif
That tour with Fate and Exciter was 1984. Orgasmatron came out in 86.
They were just touring to tour. No Remorse had come out and they did a string of dates for that in Europe prior to the US tour with those 2 bands.
Oddly, when they played in Virginia, Fate didn't play due to protests ovet th "satan" thing. King lit a giant pentagram on fire in the Boathouse parking lot in protest. Good stuff.

jason often has regrets back when he was twelve with missing shows.
Another thing that made me look twice was the note about Sick of it All playing a 1989-1994 era set.
LOL, I was lucky to have an older brother who was into metal. Went to my first show at the age of 10 my good man.
I regret not going to see THE WHO in 1971 at the Auditorium Theatre in Chicago on August 19th. Sadly I was still in the womb and my mom would have had to drive so we passed. Huge regret now when I look back on it.
On another note, I guess camping out all night to get tickets months ahead of time is a music-culture touchstone that's been lost to the online-presale age. Ordering tickets online was becoming a thing just around the time I was able to go to shows regularly.
Never took you for a WHO fan!!
