FIRST OF ALL, THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN CALLED "DUST BOWL 99" AS THE SHOW
WAS HELD IN THE MIDDLE OF A DIRT RACE TRACK WITH THE TEMPERATURES AROUND
98 ALL AFTERNOON, BUT WHAT A SHOW BY THE BOYS! FROM THE BEGINNING OF
"TOUCH OF MADNESS" TO THE ENCORE FINISH OF "ROCK IN AMERICA", NR KEPT
THE CROWD ROCKIN. THE ONLY PROBLEM THEY HAD WAS DURING "SING ME AWAY".
I'M SURE EVERYONE KNOWS THE ACT WHEN JACK AND BRAD ARE SWINGING THEIR
GUITARS BACK AND FORTH AND JACK SWINGS HIS OVER BRAD'S HEAD AND BRAD
DUCKS. WELL, JACK SWUNG BUT BRAD DIDN'T DUCK. HE GOT A BIG GASH IN HIS
HEAD AND HAD TO WALK OFFSTAGE. WHEN HE CAME BACK ON-STAGE, HE HAD
VASELINE ON THE CUT BUT THE BLOOD KEPT RUNNING DOWN HIS NECK! THEY
FINALLY GOT THE BLOOD TO STOP AND BRAD AND THE BOYS WENT ON TO FINISH
THE SHOW WITH THE SAME POWER AND PASSION AS THEY DID IN THE EARLY 80'S.
I ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO SEE THIS SHOW AS I DROVE 3 HOURS AND WAS NOT
DISAPPOINTED AT ALL!
