More like my best string of concerts...I wasn't allowed to go to shows until I turned 12...my birthday is in April. By the end of June I had seen Iron Maiden (Twisted Sister opened ), Judas Priest (Great White opened, who managed to suck even worse then than they did after they made it "big"), Ozzy Osbourne...and then Iron Maiden again.

Later that summer I hit up AC/DC, George Thorogood, Steve Miller, and Fleetwood Mac. I was also pleasantly surprised to see Journey and find out that they were pretty damn good live, since I wasn't a fan at the time. I saw Queensryche, who I thought sucked...still do.

It was a good summer...I fondly remember the days when Seattle was *the* place for heavy metal bands to visit.

Fish on...
