Gball, Not only did I witness some of the best musicians who came to the Baltimore/DC/ VA/ Philly areas, but I also got to see certain GIANTS of the game, up close and personal at super small local clubs before the places closed their doors.

Not only did I see UFO minus Schenker at the one place on Pulaski Hwy between White Marsh and Joppa, but about a year later I got to see Michael and MSG there as well. This place maybe was rated for 300 people max. To let you know how close I got to UFO, I was even standing and or seated just behind the stage at one point close enough to pick up the sheet of paper that had the set list on it. I did not want to get thrown out, so I resisted my temptation.

Another monster show I was blessed to attend, happened in 2000. I was waiting for my special order first ever Pearl Drum kit to arrive and my buddy at the music store told me that Rod Morgenstein and Mike Portnoy were giving a clinic at their store one day and a concert at a place called Bohagers the next night in Bmore. Once again, this was a small intimate venue, and this time I got to see Rod and the Dixie Dregs plus Mike and Dream Theater up close and personal as it was General admission and FREE to boot. Both bands were the 1st live experience for me seeing them. MAN was I pumped.
 
Saw him a couple of years earlier in July of 2010 with Gary Bardon on Vocals, and Carmine Appice on drums. Somewhere around on of my many hard drives, I also have photos of when I saw him with all three MSG singers and also Chris Glen on bass. I think that tour was about three years ago. Both were great shows.

Photos by me.
