    It's been a few weeks, but decided now to post my review of the show...we live here and I was fortunate to win GA tickets for this show. My wife and I were not sure about doing GA. Since we live here, we decided to spend two days downtown...Day of the show we got in line for merchandise around a eleven....around normal opening time they announce a delay in the opening, The Lightning were starting the playoffs so they were hanging banners etc...but the process was smooth and we met some really cool people in the merch line....go back to hotel and drop stuff off and head back to the arena....from there we reserved our spot, front rail, Mikes side. We anticipate the beginning of the show waiting on It happened today as our que....The show starts, first off any worries about being in GA are put to rest by all of the people around us. I always new that Ed was quite the entertainer during shows, but being there front row on Mikes side was a complete new experience for me, as my wife and I both agreed, Mike was here to entertain us as much as Ed was. Getting to see LBC RVM Blood with Ed smashing guitar was incredible. Not mention my favorites Getaway and Red Mosquito it was quite surreal...Ed seemed pissed and the emotion of the band was unreal....probably my favorite show of all the 15 I have seen....and that's not even mentioning that they played sonic reducer.

    I have read a lot of people who have stated that Ed seemed pissed in Tampa, with the inference that the crowd was not up to par. I was there and didn't agree then, and after listening to the bootleg a number of times I think I figured out his possible anger target. The band screwed up a number of times in the first few songs, particularly Matt. It seems that everyone got on the same page midway between the first set. Either way, show was fantastic in person and sounds awesome in my car.
