King's X

This was first posted on MySpace on May 25, 2006.

I finally got a chance to see King's X play live. I have been wanting to see them for years and have missed them time and time again. This tour stop in Atlanta was not going to get by me this time.
I got the tickets for Mike as an anniversary present, but it was a bit of a selfish gift since I wanted to see them too. Before the show I was giddy. We did have to wait through two openers, but King's X was worth the wait. These guys played for two hours and the show got better and better. Seeing Doug, Ty and Jerry play together has to be in my top 10 favorite music experiences of my life. Some of that comes from the unique sound they have. Some of it comes from the fact they have played together for over 20 years. And the rest is that they are just great guys. No ego here, folks. Simply great musicians delivering great music. This is a band that I will travel to see. I am so mad at myself for missing their shows before. I can't even remember the things that I did instead of going to see them. Well, no more regrets...only more shows. If you don't know who these guys are go to www.kingsxonline.com. You'll be happy you did.
