The smile was doctored too!!! I swear it! Damn that Photoshop photochop!

the mossy family
I had the pleasure of meeting the Mossy family last night at the Steve Hackett concert in Santa Ana. I'll post a review of the show when I get time. Even the warmup act (Tom Griesgraber) was excellent - the best stick player I've ever seen.

My "met moonies" list:
Davin and Karen
Keithie
Vaxman and Mrs. Vax
Rick
Mossy and family
plus I have a few friends who listen but never post.

and I'm hoping to add Mailotron and Elric next month

It was a real treat to meet you, Jim, and R. My only regret about the whole thing was that we didn't have more time. How was the private box?

I agree, Tom Griesgraber is a one talented musician (GrIse-grAber, long I and A, not grease-grabber as I thought ) What an instrument that stick is. My fave piece of his was the "Jungle". Amazing. Phil talked to him and bought all three cd's - the solo effort and two by Agent 22. Looking forward to giving them a listen. Website for anyone interested: http://www.thossounds.com/tomgriesgraber.html

It was worth that long drive to Santa Ana and back in one day just to hear Steve and co. do the bits from Acolyte. When they started Hands of The Priestess, Part II, I thought I was going to pass out. Alot of pieces from the Bay of Kings too...really nice. (I'll defer to Jim and his excellent reviewing abilities at this point)

Concert ended at what...midnight? So we started the trek back to LV because Phil had to work the next day. Missed the turn and ended up driving down the road to San Diego! Got on the right track back at Oceanside but it added alot of time to the trip. Finally rolled into LV at 7 am.

See you at the next southern left coast gig, Jim. Let's organize it better next time and do dinner too.

The story of how I met Sean is in the other thread...I tried to find Jim to introduce him but he's as slippery as an eel....

Re: Moonies Meeting Moonies
I've said this before - There are many musicians that have listened to Aural Moon. Many of these both you and Jim have met. Example: Steve Katsikas and Rik Biagi from Little Atlas. Both were in the shout box during my show before, and many others such as Glenn McLaughlin and Dennis Mullin from Iluvatar have been on. And we've met them. Dave Kulju may be the latest.

Anton Roolaart was included as a "Moonie" on the vax list, so I guess Clive Nolan is fair game on the Jim list.

This thread is wonderful for posting pics of listeners, telling little stories of meeting friends. But I just don't see the value in listing who we've met. I know no one wants to read a list of who I've met.

that's just my opinion - nothing else intended.

Met you too! I know... I am not as much of a "Moonie" as the rest of you, since I hardly ever come around. I will try to be better!!!!!

Doh! I see this is an older post...I was at that concert too! It was great to sit around other progheads and to talk prog! Too bad I wasn't on the forum to know you guys were there
