..and thanks for all those endless hours ruining my pickups with your music. I keep in memory that night at the Lisbon Expo, September 23, 1998. I could name so many of your albums - and songs, like "Rock n' Roll Animal", "Take No Prisoners"....but I prefer few words, so..

"it's such a perfect day, I'm glad I spent it with you"
