Anyone from the board going to see UFO at BB Kings in NYC?
This should be a kick ass show! I've seen UFO several times over the years from 1977 - 1996. They have never disappointed live. One of the great all time hard rock bands finally coming to visit US soil again. Michael Schenker is no longer with them which I miss but...Vinny Moore was a perfect replacement and the last three records with Vinny have been stellar. BB's is going to rock in April. First UFO, then 2 weeks later Derringer...Life is good!

True rock legends distinguish themselves not only by contributing several classics to musical history, they also keep their artistic output at a permanently high level and despite all routine always have a fresh wind blowing through their band structure. UFO fulfils all these criteria: next to classics such as Phenomenon, Force It and No Heavy Pettin, which saw the band clock up one success after the other during the Seventies, and the beginning of the new millennium finds Phil Mogg, Pete Way and Paul Raymond as inspired and creative as ever. Thanks to their American guitarist, Vinnie Moore, who joined the fold three years ago and proved his class and significance for the group on You Are Here, his debut recording with UFO, and the live cut, Showtime, the band has grown even stronger.
Their latest release, The Monkey Puzzle, marks the return of drummer Andy Parker, who had been part of the original line-up that recorded the legendary debut at the end of the sixties and has already played live on stage again with his old pals.

WOG, I'd like to see UFO and I'm looking at either the 11th or 12th show....although the NJ show is easier for me, making the trek to NYC to meet and hang with you would kick ass
