So what's the consensus view?
Seeing Kerry King and Zakk together was great. KKs Ace of Spades was a highlight.
Doug Aldrich nailed Heaven & Hell. What a player! Loved his performances.
Gilbert was Gilbert.
Satch was Satch though I thought his tone was aweful. Lots of fizz in his gain. Nice duo with Gilbert on Goin' Down. BAU for these guys I guess.
Bill Duffy was fantastic, really surprised me. Loved the Gretch.
Yngwie was Yngwie, never boring, played like a demon. Far Beyong the Sun was another highlight.
All ex Zakk and KK came out for the grand finale of Smoke on the Water.
Al Murray is an idiot. I'll show what he can do with his "donut"! They should have had Nico McBrain do it solo. Funny guy, well spoken.
The mix was average, the exhibition was disappointing, go to a shop to see all that. BUT the Marshall bar fridge was the gear of choice!!!
Not an amazing show but a good night out.
Pleased I went. Apologies to Metromutt, just had to get my son home ... Owe you a pint, mate!
Any other opinions? Disagree?
Cheers,
Matt.
EDIT - How the heck could I leave out KK doing Mouth of War?!?!?! UNBELIEVABLE.
