    Shit. I just remembered that I went to The Family Values 1998 tour in Virginia on Halloween. Rammstein was arrested during their set for lewd acts. Fucking Bible Belt. Fun show. Totally slipped my mind till right now. 
    Peace,Love and Pearl Jam.

    I've seen Aerosmith on Halloween (1987 in Providence), Motley Crue (Nikki Sixx came out in his old SATD makeup) at the Orpheum in Boston Halloween 1998 (kind of ironically saw Rob Zombie in Worcester at the Palladium the following night on 11/01) and U2 in Providence Halloween 2001 (also Larry Mullen's 40th birthday).
    Think that's it for Halloween shows

    I've seen Rob Zombie a couple of times. I have always left bruised, so I couldn't imagine seeing him on Halloween. That had to be awesome. 

    That show was opened by Monster magnet and Fear factory. The palladium in Worcester is an old theater (formerly EM Loews Theater) that has had the seats removed. My wife is very small (sub 5', sub 100lbs) so right in the fray isn't an option with her. Fortunately this place has the area right behind what essentially becomes the pit elevated a foot or so and with a railing at the front of it (would have been second section of orchestra seats when the place had chairs), and its only about 20-25 feet back, so while everyone headed down front, we headed right there. Good close vantage point and no bruising. 

    We had our daughter with us. We didn't want her in the middle of a RZ pit. 

    We took my son, 14 at the time, to see Zombie & Manson last summer, no way we'd do pit. It was at an amphitheater (Comcast Center in Mansfield) and they took the first 12 rows of seats out in center section to create a GA area, got seats right next to the GA area, 6 rows back, pit didn't appear too bad actually, probably cause the audience is aging (except for me of course). But in the day saw some crazy stuff in the pit (especially 2 times we saw him on double bill with Korn).
    The last time we saw him was with Korn. Our daughter, soon-to-be 16, loves Korn. What's funny is that neither she or my husband had any idea I had been taken out. My husband said that they were busy watching the alien. A police officer came to check on me.

    That is hilarious.
