My wife and I caught the show in L.A. We only caught one song from Machine Head which was Davidians- good stuff! Megadeth surprised us by being so good. I know it's just Mustaine left from the old days but he still has it. Heaven and Hell was on! Dio is amazing! They rocked the place. We were very happy with the show. Got us in the mood to catch some more hard rock and metal shows this summer.

Black Sabbath, yup, really good! I'd seen the "featuring Toni Iommi" version back in the 80s, but this was not even close. Everyone was on and tight. It's amazing how full of a sound they get.
Not sure if this happened at many shows, but a lot of bras were thrown on stage during Neon Knights. It seemed kinda out of place to me for them, but Dio had a good time with it. He changed up the lyrics a bit and went with "Neon Tits" a few times.

I went to the Minneapolis show.
It was a great concert, although I detest the Target Center. The acoustics are fricking terrible. Thankfully, we had floor tickets, so the usual slap-back echo that plagues some of the seating areas was not noticable.
In all my years of going to metal shows, I'd never managed to get to see Megadeth, so that was a nice treat. Machine Head was great, but they pretty much always kick ass live. The main issue was that it totally wasn't their crowd. Nobody's going to do the mosh pit thing at this show, man......just let it go...
Anyway, H&H was incredible. The sound system was pretty much perfect, and everybody seemed totally on top of their game.

I've got to say, though - Vinnie Appice is a great drummer as well, and he was his usual great self on this tour!
Hell, the whole band was great - I would definitely pay to see them again if they toured behind a whole new album!
