SYMPHONY X



Riordo and I scored some VIP tickets for Symphony X, and Powerglove at the Best Buy Theater. An awesome show, made all the better thanks to the vip tix. I Haven't wrote on the blog in a while, and since the show was back on April 22nd, some details might be cloudy. Any-who

We got to get in early and had a meet and greet with the band, I brought a symphony X mask which I made many many years ago (2002) and got all the members to sign it. They all thought it was pretty bad ass. After some photographs and a quick chat we were allowed to hit up the merch table early and get our loot.

Powerglove was great, really hilarious but extremely talented video game power metal. They threw fun plastic swords and hammers into the crowd for people to play with.

Symphony X put on a hell of a show. The Odyssey was a highlight for me.
1. Of Sins and Shadows

9. Set the World on Fire
Encore
10. The Odyssey

5k

Ran the annual 5k run for the wild life at the Bronx Zoo with Nick and my sister. Felt great to run, and to do it for a good cause.
