Best - Ministry at Lollapalloza in 1992, Tool - everytime, Reverend Horton Heat....everytime! I love live music, too many to count. Hank Williams III has a pretty good cowpunk show.

I guess I forgot about Ozzfest in 04. I got tickets from this Wine rep when I worked at Kmart. I was trying to rail her, i got 3rd row seats at Ozzfest instead. Hmm....

I saw Strapping Young Lad at Peabody's Down Under. Front row, 3 inches from Devin Townsend's guitar. Freaking awesome.

The pit got so out of control that they threatened to cancel the show right there and then. We convinced the owner to let FATA to finish their set acoustic and they invited everyone on stage.

Nice! When I saw Lamb of God in Toledo, the bar gave everyone their beer in the aluminum bottles. Well, one of them made it to the stage. I quote the singer from Lamb of God "Who the fuck threw this bottle up here? Ok, everyone in the crowd...If you see some ************ throw his bottle, everyone beat the fuck out of them. This shit's fuckin dangerous and we don't want anyone to be fucked up by some dumb ************ throwin shit." I got hit by 4 of them things. They sting like hell when they're not empty.

One time at an AFI show, when Davie was being body passed, someone stole his shoes. He stopped the show and said, "Seriously, who steals fucking shoes?"
