I used to listen to metal back in the 80's. I can't do it anymore. I prefer to listen to jazz than metal. I've seen Merciful Fate (got King Diamonds autograph), Motorhead, saw and met Slayer, Anvil, Nasty savage, saw Iron Maiden and Judas Priest several times. Anthrax, saw Metallica when David Mustane was the lead guitarist and they were all about 18 years old. I've seen Metallica probably 10 times. I saw ACDC with Bonn Scott and saw Iron Maiden when Paul Dianno was the lead singer and he was THE BEST. I could go on and on.I saw Black Sabbath's last tour with original band members in Montreal sometime in the mid 90's. Ronnie James Dio..forget about it. He was AMAZING live. Scorpions...saw them twice. I just moved on. I can't listen to the same stuff forever. My metal now is the latest Miles Davis bootleg. I still own the LP's but tossed the Technics turntable.
