My wife, Mary and I bought our tickets to the show soon after they were for sale. We reserved a room at a hotel near the arena. We snuck away from the family for an evening. The tension started to build well before the show. But as soon as the boys started playing ELEVATION the tension melted into relaxation... but then it picked up again and again. This is a band you cannot expect to live up to "the money" every nite. They don't play for it. The machine however - requires it. Such is life...

The last time we heard this band in a Pittsburgh arena was 1985. In these days the arena was called Civic - not Mellon.

Big business rules - I guess... However - there is not a business who can create and perform songs like these four...
