On the afternoon of the first day of the fest, the weather will be perfect. I'll be arriving in a limo wearing a designer gown and passing out bottles of water to promote sobriety.
If it is let it be known that foisting moral values onto others is not my intention. I've simply made a personal choice to abstain from the fermented grain. This decision only applies to me. Likewise, what others do only applies to them. I strive not to judge although it still happens every once in a while, so please pardon any really bad remarks I may have made lately about alcohol consumption. I still have the smoking vice to ditch so I don't want to be a hypocrite. I do think it's a bit unfair that the anti-smoking nazis are allowed to have their say without much resistance, though, so if I happen to get all high and mighty about drinking I'm only turning the tables... 
Ohhh maaaan. I hope this is not a subtle dig at me and my new-found freedom from alcohol intake.

I would never poke fun at anyone trying to abstain from either vice. My post was merely a meager attempt at a joke...because I wouldn't be caught dead in a gown and though I respect anyone's decision not to drink, I sure as hell wouldn't go out of my way to stop people from doing so! The limo thing, well, ya just never know, hehe. Good for you Rebecca! I'm sure I'll be doing enough partying for the both of us.
Anyway, part of Rainbow in the Dark and Mob Rules are in the first clip:
Here are some links to a couple of MPEGS I took at the Heaven and Hell show last night at O'Malley's. The quality isn't that great because I'm still not as proficient as I should be at taking vids with the Cybershot. Most of them tend to turn out dark and blurry and the audio quality can be dodgy, too. The meager stage lighting and craziness down in front of the stage at O'Malley's last night didn't help matters either.

The second one is most of Man on the Silver Mountain, the final song in the set. It really was crowd pleaser.

Sacred Dawn also played last night. Finally got to see them. Pics of them and Heaven and Hell have also been posted to the Foto Gallery.

In other news, our own ShadowLioness (Rachel) was also in attendance at last night's show and she won the raffle! She is now the proud owner of a Washburn guitar.

Congratulations, Rachel! And thanks for the clarification above.
