Ok, this in no way will be as entertaining as "Ficticious Threads by Real MR'ers" and I only bring this up because many of you live and breath music like I do. There's a new Thin Lizzy cd out now called "Still Dangerous", recorded in Philidelphia, 1977. SUPERB show. Almost on par with their epic live album, "Live and Dangerous", one of the best live albums of all time. For those of you who know Thin Lizzy only because of "Boys Are Back In Town", that's great, very cool song, but take some time and dig a little deeper into the band, as they are excellent. Sadly/Gladly, I discovered their back catalog only a couple of years ago, much like I did with Zeppelin, but I still have a lot of miles on these tires and will forever love those bands. Having grown up with KISS/Black Sabbath/Rush/Nugent, etc., there were still a few bands I was not into, but glad I took the time later in life to test drive Thin Lizzy, Led Zeppelin, The Who, etc. and WOW, now I "get it". Anywho, for what it's worth. :wink:

Fantastic! Thanks for that - will go nag my favourite music store to get it in (the manager is a TL fan too, so it may even be there already!)

I started really digging into the band around 6 months ago, and I really dig this band. I'll have to pick up this DVD.
