The Best Show Ever!!!
by vaddy11 on 5/3/11Best Buy Theater - New YorkFirst of all the Venue: It was like being in a small, but elegant, club. The staff, amazing!! I'm disabled and then did everything possible to make my experience as awesome as it could be. I sat on the left side of the stage, close enough to see Dee Snider's sweat coming down his face. The band is still as amazing as they were back in the 80's. They played a long and varied set including a few surprises. Having been to over 100 concerts in my life this was the very best by far. The event was held to support The Pinkburst Project and it was great to find out that every cent spent on the tickets and merchandise were going to the project. And it was great for the band to acknowledge all the people that gave their time in support. The opening act Antigone Rising was unknown to me before the show and I was expecting them to be OK or worse as many opening bands are. I could not have been more incorrect. They're an all female band that leans towards country music(which I cannot stand) but they were incredible. Their last song was a cover of Pat Benetar's Heartbreaker which they knocked outta the park.
