Thanksgiving night at The Birch Hill Night Club , Old Bridge, NJ.

WOW, first the place was packed. You could not move at all, but what really sucked is you could only really see the backs of peoples heads.

Motorhead was great. Lemmy looks weird clean shavin. I have not seen them in 10 years. They played alot of old tunes.

Dio was also great. He looks good, from what I could see, since Dio is short it was hard to see him at all. He looks the same maybe a little less hair. I have not seen Dio in many years either. He played a good mix of tunes from Holy Diver to Black Sabbath to his new stuff. All in all Dio was as usual one rockn dude.

DO NOT miss this tour!!!
