RATT - Hilton Theater - 8/20

The return of Ratt n Roll started this year with their brand new record, Infestation, which is a solid record from start to finish. Definitely check it out. Ratt brought their 2010 summer tour to Atlantic City to the Hilton Theater Friday night. A bit loud for me, in fact I heard that they almost blew out the PA system. The show... fantastic!!! Classics like You're In Love, Lay It Down, and Lovin' You Is A Dirty Job... new tracks like Best Of Me, Eat Me Up Alive, and Last Call sounded perfect with the hits, and deeper cuts like The Morning After and Nobody Rides For Free were awesome. Round and Round closed the show... but there was more... the band came back out to rip through a cover of Walkin' the Dog. One thing is obvious from Friday night... Ratt still has it!!!

A little meet n greet after the show was the perfect end of a great night of Rattin' n Rollin'...

Wow, it's been a long time!!!

May 17th??? Really??? Well, I'm back. Blogging drains me. Actually, just a little lazy I guess. Big weekend... KISS of Friday... HEART on Saturday. So here's my reviews...

KISS - Susquehanna Bank Center - Friday night KISS brought the Hottest Show on Earth Tour to Camden. Yes, Camden, not Philly Paul Stanley. You were in Jersey jackass. More on good ole' Paul in a few. A KISS is never boring. Fire, giant screen, blah blah blah. Gene was on. He's great. Full of himself, but always fun to watch. The best part of the show was Gene flying into the rafters. Rather have heard God of Thunder, but I Love it Loud wasn't bad. Deuce, Detroit Rock Center, and Cold Gin were really god. Crazy, Crazy Nights??? Lick it Up might be one of the worse songs ever. They ripped into Whole Lotta Love and Won't Get Fooled Again which was pretty good. Overall a good show, but Paul Stanley is the most annoying frontman EVER!!! Put a shirt on. It's not the 70's anymore. Man boobs are not attractive. The voice is a bit shot and no need to talk in between every song...

HEART - Caesars - If you've never seen Heart, boy are you missing out. Ann Wilson's voice is just as good, if not better than when she was younger. Nancy Wilson... DREAMY and she rocks as well. The show was amazing. Heartless... Never... Straight On... These Dreams... Alone... Magic Man... Crazy On You... Barracuda... and then covers of What Is and What Should Never Be and Love Reign O'er Me. It's all about Zep and Who covers this weekend I guess. The show hands down blew KISS away. And then there was the meet n greey before the show...

Traffic was a nightmare. Ran six blocks with the meet n greet photographer. Got there with minutes to spare. Then she walked in... I almost fainted... again!!! Second time I've meet Nancy Wilson and the same feeling... again. I've met so many rock stars, but she gets me everytime. I got a bunch of pics with them and both, Ann and Nancy were super cool. Awesome to meet the great female voice in rock. Ann is second to none!!!

A great evening and pics to prove it!!!
