There were too many damn critters at that show because if you saw a crow or raven
there was still a chicken in there. I saw this thing right in front of me. It was multi colored
(Brown, black, and white and it couldn't fly. I think someone threw it from behind me and it landed
on the floor section. It jumped into the crowd then came scurrying out. Security finally cornered it
and I stopped paying attention. Quite a few people were pulling cameras out. It should make
youtube. It was dark and I had trouble following it so I may have seen something other than what
I thought I saw but I think it was a chicken.

I'll try that again if it doesn't work soon.
@HRMG
...I did see you. I tried to take a picture to surprise you on hear but it was too dark. I didn't get to Cleveland
until around 6:00. I knew you weren't at the HRC so I didn't even bother. I was on the right side, second section from the
stage, first row. Great seats actually. Close enough to make out facial features and back far enough to enjoy the whole stage.
I saw you and your husband in between sets. You guys were standing and talking to some guy. Your husband was holding
the banner. You guys were walking back (for beers?) and you were pretty close. I was going to holler but I didn't want to
embarass myself. I also caught you guys trying to protect yourself from a foam bath with your banner during Fairies Wear Boots.
You can't see you guys but you can see the banner trying to block the foam. I'll post it as soon as I get it to youtube. Peace! |

Thanks Bud, we made it home safe and sound. We spent the night in Cleveland and left this morning around 10am. It was coming down pretty good, but much easier to drive in the daylight. Once we got to Toledo it let up. I'm so sorry we didn't meet up. Next time, OK? I'm so glad that you made it home safely - it sounds like you had a hell of a trip. We took a ton of pictures, will post the good ones as soon as we get them all downloaded and sorted.
HALFORD WAS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!!!

I hope and pray(to any being that may be out there) that you and your
husband made it home O.K.. When I left downtown Cleveland it was clear but as soon as I hit the interstate
it turned into a mess. The snow started coming down so hard I could barely see. Then the roads got covered
and half the time I couldn't tell which lane I was in. I-80 traffic flow on a normal day is about 75 miles an hour.
There was about a twenty mile stretch where it literally came to a crawl, maybe 25 mph. I started to get a bit
of a migraine before I left the show and man did it make my drive home torturous. Not being able to see through
the snow and light reflection off of it was causing sharp pains behind my right eye and down the side of my head.
It got so bad I thought I would have to pull over and throw up. I still had the damn thing when I woke earlier. It's
subsiding now thank goodness.
Lastly and again, HRMG I hope you made it home safely. |

I saw Ozzy back then also and quite honestly I completely agree'd with you until this years Ozzfest. I believe
he was every bit as good if not better and I think the (possible) no drug intake was the reason for it. Before
that though the last four or five times that I saw him I ended up leaving early and feeling sorry for how pathetic
he looked. I was hoping he would retire to save himself from the embarassment that he became.

...I went to the Ozzy/Halford show in Cleveland last night. Two things stand out the most.
The first being how much better the indoor atmosphere was for Rob. The daylight and sparse
crowd at Ozzfest along with nothing from the crowd made it hard to enjoy. Last night the crowd
was huge and definitely into it. I didn't care for two or three of the newer songs he played but overall
they were heavy as f*ck and Rob sounded great.
The second thing was that if you ever see Ozzy at his best cherish it because he (rarely) ever is. He
sounded so much better at Ozzfest than lastnight. I've seen him sound worse so last night wasn't
horrible but it was definitely an off night for him. At Ozzfest he seemed cleaned up and his performance
showed for it. Last night made me think he's turning back to his old ways.(just guessing!) He did claim
to have an ear infection and I saw him grab his nose and blow trying to pop his ears many times and
once he said it was driving him crazy. He said it felt like a bubble inside his head. I'll give him the benefit
of doubt because it did seem to bother him. He has a phenomenol band right now and musically they
were great. To sum it up, I had a good time and I'm so glad I saw Halford at something other than Ozzfest.
That was a disappointment. Last night he showed why they call him the metalgod. |

I went up town and bought a cake and and ice cream and some decorations. Set up a projector with
a birthday greeting lighting up the kitchen door. I had it looking like this for her to walk into hopefully making
her smile. She said she loved it and smiled all day. Mission accomplished!

Not entirely true. Close though. Nothing more than 2 1/2 hrs. Out of 219 concerts maybe 5 required
a 5 hr. drive. I live in the middle of a (magic) triangle. Pittsburgh, Cleveland, and Columbus with Detroit
and Cincinnati on the outer flanks. Basically just lucky, that's all.

6 concerts. It boggles my mind. I know I'll never top this year.

...Can't wait til Saturday. The wife and I watch a local highschool football team.(Steubenville Big Red)
We have been going since 1987 and have gone to (roughly)175 games. Since 1984 they have played
in 6 state championship games winning 3 of them. They have made it to the semi-finals at least a dozen
times. OHSAA splits the state into four regions and Steubenville has won that nearly every year, one stretch
doing it eleven straight times. This year they lost 2 games in a row for the first time since 2000. They lost
in week eight last year to end a 68 game regular season winning streak. In 05' and 06' they were the first
Ohio team to have back to back (15 - 0) seasons. Their QB for that team plays for the Cincinnati Bearcats.
Playoffs start this weekend. Hopefully they will win a few games. Not championship material this year but
still good so we'll see. Even though most probably don't care I'll let you know how they do. Peace! |

...I just noticed that I got one (un)ignore. I didn't know you could do that. To whomever it was
if you're reading this I would like to say "Thank You". Even though I now realize this is going to happen
from time to time it's still a drag when it does. I've been trying to back off a little and keep my pics posted
here only. Hopefully that keeps the ignores down.

Thanks and I forgot one little detail. The biker in the Britney Spears outfit had the skirt, top, wig,
and ("biker" boots) on. It made the look.

hate them but it was so worth the wait. Incredible high energy show and a "VERY" sic crowd. Then all the hotties with

around in heels and garters and panties with black tape covering the nipples. I'm happy and love my wife but it was fun to watch.
We got home around 4:30 in the morning. Got about five hours sleep and then went to Coopers Rock. I may have overrated
the place the first time but it is a beautiful place none the less. We walked all of Rattlesnake trail this time. I may post a
slide show for you guys. You wouldn't believe how treacherous some of this path looks. This post is a little long so I'll end it.
I'm a little tired but I can rest when I'm dead. Right now I'm just trying to live. It's one of the reasons the wife and I are so happy.
P.S.
You should have seen the biker dressed up in a little Britney Spears outfit(skirt,crop top, and wig) moshing in the pit. Now that was funny.

...Going to Mushroomhead "Halloween" show tomorrow in Cleveland and then Sunday we head south
to Coopers Rock State Forest again. We want to check out all four overlooks and a couple of walking trails
and of course cookout. There is a trail that leads to an overlook that's supposed to be better than the one I
showed you guys pics of. If I get any good shots I'll post them here. If I get any video at the concert I'll post
that here also. Hope to have a fun weekend.Peace all! |

These are from Cooper's Rock. A rain just came through and ruined my chance of better pics
but these are still cool. Lower right is the viewing area. It was wet and slick and a bit scary. The
rail isn't very high and the rock slopes down. I was shaky getting close to the edge.(LOL)

@Becks... Too many little holes (and big holes)too. It was cool though.
Here's the last of the trail pics, I'll post the overlook tomorrow.

We thought of four or five different drives when this place called Cooper's Rock State Forest popped into my head. I
remember someone telling me about it but I've never been there. I didn't even remember which state it was in or how far
from home it was. We googled it and found that it was near Morgantown W.Va., about 2 hours away so off we went. The
drive down was beautiful. Rolling hills and rural farm areas pretty much the whole way. It was nothing compared to the
State forest we were going to. When we got there we took this little road through the forest area that felt as though you
were almost driving through the trees. The fall colors made it nice. We got to this parking area that had a couple of trails,
one leading to an overlook and the other twisting through the woods through a maze of giant rocks.(not literally). You walked
over, around, and between them. There were crevices and holes and a bit dangerous in places. Then we took the path
to the overlook. This is why I'm posting this. This overlook was one of the most incredible sites that I have ever seen. You
could see for miles in both directions. A massive hill in front of you filled with colorful trees. Valley's in both directions with
a little river snaking through it. You were miles above it and the only signs of urban life was a town miles in the distance.
It was truly an awe inspiring experience and I will have to post pics soon. I guarantee some will enjoy. To do something
so spontaneous and have it turn out so good and share it with my wife made yesterday a very special day. I'll share soon.
