Hey Hotrockin' Metal Goddess, thanks alot, its great to have supporters! if you go to blabbermouth.net and read some of the comments about the 365 day mark and the meeting the band, it wasn't very nice, althought there were supporters there. (few)...anyways all the guys were super, K.K. and Glenn thought it was so cool that i took to the record like i did and thanked me for my dedication for that and the 30 some years i've been a fan. Ian laughed and jokingly said you listened a whole year and survived, but thought it was so cool....Scott thanked me for my dedication to the band, and Rob just sat and talked about doing the Nostradamus live and the production they want to put into it. He asked me what the first Jp record i bought was, (Sin After Sin), and if this was the first time i saw Priest, of course this was the 6th or 7th time, (military commitments stopped me a few times), and he asked me why i dug the album so much, and basically i tld him, that no other album has been done this way, and that the band told the story very well..the music is great and that i could feel how Nostradamus 'the man' was feeling at a particular moment in his life in the tone of his vocals. i also told him i knew little about Nostradamus and that i could get a picture of what he did and who is was. it also made me do some research to learn more about Nostradamus. He said he had read about me i that mornings paper, (the cleveland plain dealer did a story about the listening, and they also did a follow up that saturday with rob and i's picture in the paper). i told him if it doesn't come to cleveland to at least try and get somewhere reasonable as i have to see it live. he asked what i do for a living, even though it was in the paper, and i also told him about being a 20 year retiree from the military which he thought was very cool and thanked me for dedicared service. He posed for a pic or 2 and thanked me for my love of the album and of the band, and told me to keep listening, and that 'understand the concept of Nostradamus! i t was an experience i will NEVER forget! don't think i wasn't a little excited and nervous because i was, but i also knew i was meeting some peopkle who have been in my life for 30+ years, so it wasn't bad at all. they all made me feel just like i've known them for years.....anyother question, don't hesitate to ask, i LOVE talking Priest! |
