Ive never been able to get into metal which I've always thought odd considering my punk music roots.

I'll admit that does surprise me a little. I'd wondered in the past why you've never really posted much (if anything) in the way of metal songs.

I saw Iron Maiden on the Fear of the Dark tour in Charlotte with Testament and Corrosion of Conformity opening. It was the only North Carolina date that CoC played while opening for Iron Maiden on their world tour. It was kind of a big deal for them, and the crowd. Testament didn't stand a chance coming on after CoC there.

Not for the first time, I find myself more than a little jealous of your experiences.

cranking up the full album of Piece of Mind on youtube on the work computer today. With headphones, sadly

it was just a concert like any other. I wasn't cool enough to get backstage that day - just our chief engineer and promotions director got passes for that gig. We were just out on the lawn. But we did get in free with the station.
