Bon Jovi
Allstate Arena
Rosemont, IL
It has been 13 years since I saw these guys last...definitely worth the wait! They put on a great show...huge video screens, and awesome sound. This was Bryon's first Bon Jovi show, and he was very impressed!

Prince
Milwaukee Auditorium
Milwaukee, WI
I have wanted to see the "Purple One" (a fellow Minnesotan!) in concert for a very long time. I had very high expectations of this show, and was not disappointed. Prince is a gifted musician, and incredible performer. The aftershow party was at the Tom-Tom Club. Prince made an appearance, as did Morris Day & The Time.

Quiet Riot
Ground Zero
Mokena, IL
Another great venue to see a show. This was the 4th time that I saw these guys, and it was a kick ass time! After 25 years, they certainly are "Alive & Well"!!! Opening band was the Lounge Puppets.
Here's me with Rudy Sarzo...
With my friend, Sabrina, and Kevin DuBrow...
And the whole band...

Another awesome show!!! This was the last Rick show for a while...he's on his way to Vegas to star in EFX for the next year (sounds like a trip out West will be in order!!!)

Rick Springfield
Empress Casino
Joliet, IL
This was a private show...Bryon's Grandma Katie hooked us up with tickets. It was totally awesome! I FINALLY got up on stage for "I Get Excited"!!! (That's me on the far left! The best part was the big, sweaty hug from Rick after the song was over!!!)
