Hey Kirsten,

Tis me, the cranky Englishman with the white shades who thought you were the former singer and who expressed how much you'd come out of your shell since last time I saw the band even though you weren't the same person I was referring to. Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the show today and meeting (re-meeting) you girls, baby you rock. Also to just let you know you're a great singer and a great 'bird' ;-) See you gals on August 1st hopefully, in the meantime keep rocking !

Oh my God dude what a day this was!!!!

The Iron Maidens kicked ass as they always do \m/

I'm glad you girls did the show inspite of the van problems on the way from Vegas. I've been looking forward to the 3-set TIMs experience for a long time now, and I would have been really disappointed had you girls not played today.

Thanks again to Melani for the treat. Special thanks to Sara for letting me play some of the guitar for the last song Iron Maiden!! That was fuckin metal. I totally loved it

I didn't take pics this time. Just wanted to fuckin headbang and sing and shout and air-drum and air-guitar.

AFTER this show me and 2 other friends drove to San Bernardino to catch the Mayhem fest!!! Wasn't interested in any bands other than Slayer. When I got there Killswitch Engage were playing. Didn't care about their music at all, so passed my time by moshing.
Their Holy Diver cover was the most fucked up cover I've ever heard in my life. After them, Slayer hit the stage at 8.40 and played for an hour. I was right in the middle of the pit, 3 rows back from the stage, directly in front of Tom Araya. I loved each and every minute of it, but oh my fuckin god Angel of Death+Raining Blood = money's worth!! notworthy

Wow I think this was the most 'metal' day ever. Just got home. Gonna sleep real good tonight.

See you girls at the Galaxy \m/

Thank you, kindly! Indeed, I was hot that day....sweatin,' stinkin' hot! :hotjump:

All in all, another fun day at the swap meet fer sher. Somehow, the beer always tastes the best there.

I just wanted to given an extra special thanks for everybody who was at the swap meet show--thanks for showing up and sticking it out until we got there. As many of you know, we had a show the night before in Vegas and our van broke down (tranny blew) en route to the swap meet, so it put us back a few hours. But the show must go on...and I'm sure glad it did. You fellow Maiden fans make it all worthwhile!kickass:

Yeah, and special thanks to you, my human teleprompter! On those oh-so-rare (ha ha) occasions where I may forget a word, all I have to do is watch you singing all the words!
