I see them every time they come to NY/NJ. Have seen them 11 times. Last time I saw them was last year when they filmed the DVD at Irving Plaza. AWESOME!!

I heard about that dvd but don't know anyone who owns it....the one review on amazon is not flattering on Ian at all...

Just 1 opinion. Sounds like he got lost and ended up at a Cult concert without knowing what to expect. Ian has been full of himself for years. Goes back to his goth, post punk origins of SOUTHERN DEATH CULT. When I saw him in 2006 at Nokia in Times Square he was telling the crowd to get off of MYSPACE and get a life.

But for the reviewer to say he couldn't hit the high notes was false. I'm not 1 to say he's always perfect but that show he was on and was 1 of the band's better performances I've seen. None of us are what we used to be and it sounds like this guy can't accept reality.

How was the Toronto show?

The Toronto show was good......Ian seemed to mail it in a little but Billy was playing well and it was the first time I saw them since the Sonic Temple tour....

Great show...let me know if you can make me a copy of that NY show ;)

Billy NEVER disappoints. He's always GREAT! From Sonic Temple to now is a long time.

Hey Led, I'm going to see a Zep cover band called BLACK DOG this weekend. They're pretty good. Ever hear of them? (The same band covers SABBATH too but with a different lead singer.)

Back to the business at hand - man it was great watching that TROTTIER video and seeing him lay out people with those checks and score the clutch goals bringing back good memories.

And they were pretty good.

Sweet! Never saw da boys in '77. My first real concert was in '76 when Uriah Heep opened for Tull at MSG.

So when I tell young Isles fans that I've got concert T-shirts older than them I ain't kidding! :lol:

Sorry pal, I would if I could but I gave the DVD to my nephew who moved to S. Carolina and haven't seen it since.
