If I am correct then I would like to say hello Mick. Meeting Yourself and Tommy at a concert that Shane never showed up too in Pittsburgh in March of 2001 was the high light of my evening and I still remember it fondly till this day.
Well I geussed the wrong Mick so please forgive me, not for the wrong Mick, but for not including my Mother who also got to meet Mick O'Connell and Tommy and she as well remembers the nite fondly. She was given free Guinness Draught from the bands personal stash when the venue had sold out of Guinness. By the way the venue only had Guinness Stout. They also ran out of Irish whiskey. Shortly after thay had "run out" of the preferred booze and beer the venue announced the show was cancelled and a near full scale riot broke out. My Mother was ushered to safety behind the merchandise table as various bottles and insults were hurled about the venue. I believe at that point Tommy after having played a number with the shitty opening band went outside to sooth the crowd. Meanwhile myself, my Mom, the merch guy from Limerick, and Mick took a picture behind the merch table. We still have it in our family photo album!
