Sal Governale's Hempstead, NY Review

From:Sal Governale

I have three words to describe this show: Tight, tight, tight! The 4 boys of rock n roll mania have never sounded so good. Seeing them twice this year and this being the 3rd show I can defiantly say that this was without a doubt the best! Ace's solos were crystal clear and right on the money, Peter's pounding was great even his solo was more upbeat and apperaed to be slightly shorter. Gene sounded awesome and his demon struts were performed if he were to win a grammy for them! Paul looked and sounded great, much more relaxed, even teasing us at one point by introducing "Watching You" with a classic Led Zeppelin riff (very funny). His singing intros were shortened and they even connected a few songs together, one of them being "Shock Me". Every song sounded like CD quality. The new comers were "Come On and Love Me", "I Stole Your Love" but unfortunatly "Take Me" was not performed. The rest of the setlist is the same with "King Of The Nighttime World" being pushed in the later portion of the show rather then the 2nd tune. Overall the show was the best I have ever seen, and lets hope they can follow up with an LP and tour again!
