Poison / Ratt

There are a lot of great things about Phoenix. One of them is the amount of conerts that roll in. Friday is Deep Purple. Which will be a great show.

Last night was Ratt / Poison. I was really looking forward to seeing Ratt since it had been years since I last saw them. I was not let down. The guys didn't miss a beat. It took me back to the days of growing up listening to these guys. They played it all "Body Talk", Way Cool Jr", "Back For More", "Lack of Communication" and of course "Round and Round". Another bonus was the amount of little clothing on the chicks. They actually looked good for the most part. I honestly didn't see as many girls trying to fit into their clothes from 1989 as I thought I would have. I didn't see much big hair either.

Poison was also fun to watch. I just wasn't into seeing them as much since I just saw them last year in NC. As much as people make fun of this era of music...these bands still put on great shows. Nothing like the guys now who just stare at the stage or jump once or twice during the concert. The hair bands always had some pyro and cool light shows. They still do.

I am still not a fan of Poison's cover CD. They played a couple songs from it last night and it might have been better live than on CD, but seriously don't need this one in the collection.

It was a rough show tonight since I hadn't slept since 1p.m. on Wednesday and with throwing back a few at the concert always makes it for a long night. One day I will learn.

It really is time for bed...
