I flew out to Toronto to see Blind Guardian this past weekend. The show was very good. Marcus and the band were as tight as any group I've ever seen. The crowd was loyal and familiar with their tunes and we had a great time. If you guys get a chance to see BG, the admission is a bargain at twice the price. As impressive as Marcus, Andre' and Hansi are, drummer Frederick was a spectacle to see. He was tight, busy and very serious about his task. It was a pleasure to see a band as well rehearsed and as well connected as this group. Hats off to their touring bass player as well as he was the second hardest working guy on stage that night.
Cheers!
