The New York Times - Concert Review Quote

"Compared to AC/DC, the group positively sparkled...the playing is crisp and tight, the tempos are varied, the rhythm section rocks instead of lumbering along like a dinosaur, and macho excess, both vocal and instrumental, kept to a minimum."

This and other archive concert reviews can be found on the show pages in the Tour History.
