I realize you didn't mention me name but sometimes things are attributed to me that I don't say. I mentioned
Harpo's to Stained... and was just clarifying that I didn't say it held 24,000, and I agree with your last paragraph
and never made any of those claims either.
Of course not. Neither did I quote you nor say that you did. I know that you've never been there and, while I have been there hundreds of times, even I said that I couldn't find the actual capacity of Harpos online very easily.
It is a freakin' dive. Boots stick to the floor and people have been known to be shot and stabbed in the parking lot (I park on the street). Just had to set the record straight as you guys have been bringing it up, especially in terms of numbers. As HB said, if we were to go by numbers alone, even Bieber would be followers of PSY and "Gangnam Style" (ooooh, sexy lady, op op).
Gotta also throw in with Stained on the argument (no surprise there). Priest CHANGED metal in a major way. Unabashedly metal. Wish we could ask Dimebag (RIP) but even he wore the JP razor blade. Insane Clown Posse, GWAR, Mushroomhead, hell, half the bands currently playing at Harpos didn't revolutionize metal as did Priest. They may do what they do well, but hardly had the impact of Priest.
