So looking forward to seeing this band tonight
Their new album is awesome rock!

Guitar player's influences of Gary Moore and Michael Schenker  shine through a lot - but he's incredible in his own right
Cool guitar solo at 2.55 in the clip above

Same band  - this is their true colours how they are these days
Countdown was pretty much a one off - mind you the solo in it was freaking awesome

Took me ages to get round to listening to this, because I thought "Oh, it's only Europe :roll: ".  But. I must admit, that is a good track (chorus is still a bit schmaltzy though  :wink: )

The UFO cover is excellent - great playing from Mr Norum (you can sit down with a V!!  :lol: ).  But I was surprised to hear Joey talking about John's mum's partner's record collection in the intro, like it was ancient history!  I'm old enough to remember most of the UFO albums first time round... and everyone in Europe is my age or older!

Gwem - you would have had fun last night
It was a bit of a Flying V fest

Support was from DIAMOND HEAD!
Brian Tatler played a white V

Norum also used a white V for about 1/3 of the set interspersed with 4 Les Pauls
Tuning wise he had a bout 4 songs in B two in C and the rest I think he was tuned to D or E flat at least

It was a lot heavier than maybe a few audience members were expecting

Norum was amazing - wringing tones out of his guitars in a way that Gary Moore  and Michael Schenker would have admired.

Gig lived up to my hopes for it!

nice, diamond head supported megadeth a couple of tours back when i saw them. Were pretty good, i bought the best of on the strength of it (i'd heard of them before i saw them, just didn't know any of their stuff... and it was like £3 on amazon or something like that :lol: ).
