There were so many Metallica 'demos' floating around back then too.  Bootlegs from shows and what not.   Am I evil.......  Blitzkrieg....

ahhh the good ole days :)  Remember HellStar? :D



LOL, yeah I remember Hellstar.  I had my official "Houston Headbanger" card for years.  That week was the best week of my life musically.  Metallica, then Maiden, then U2 all in the same week.  Metallica at Cardi's is still the loudest single gig I have ever been to.  My ears were ringing for days.  Do you remember who opened for Metallica?  W.A.S.P opened for Maiden.  Hehehehehe...

Armored Saint opened for Metallica, but I was at the Maiden show so I missed them (that was the Thursday night gig)  You must have been at the Tuesday night Metallica show :)    Yeah, that was one of the best weeks of my rock and roll life :D  And yes that Metallica show was the loudest concert I ever went to.  I couldn't hear my teachers the next day at school, ok well nothing was different :D

Yes sir!  Armored Saint it is!  I remember when we were at TTNR meeting both AS and Metallica, AS was first.  A guy a little behind me leaned in to AS and asked them, "Why are you opening for these jokers?"  :rofl :rofl

Honest to God true story!

lol!
 
 Metallica was the stuff at my high school.  Though the radio sucked back then and they wouldn't play ANY Metallica on 101 KLOL.  KPFT used to play some on satruday night's headbangers ball, but that was it.

 Did you used to go cruise the strip on Fri/Sat down on Westheimer?

Oh hell yes I did.  1965 GTO or my 77 Trans Am.  Westy was the bomb for rides and chicks.  And if you wanted to see a cool live act, Cardi's was right there.  What high school did you go to Udie?

Oh, this is gonna be a tough one. I'll have to break it into decades. Yes, I'm really *that* old :p/

70s Boston's first album
80s Night Ranger's first album
90s Nothing really impressed me for a "first"
00s So far Evanescence has been parked in my CD player

Some of the things I take into consideration is not only the "I like it (duh) factor", but also the quality of the production. There have been a few releases that I thought were musically interesting, but the production just flat out blew goat cheese. Lately it seems that since the cost of making a quality production is affordable, more of the music just blows.
