Here
is a review of the Planet X Show I saw on Thursday November 8th 2000, at Classic
Rocks in Buffalo NY, the club where they played was right near the Walden
galleria mall, and was very easy to find, even if I made a few wrong turns in
the process :). Once we found the club everything was great, the people at
the club were great. I got there a bit late about 9:30 PM, but as it turns
out planet x didn't hit the stage until about 1:00 AM it must have been. Before
the show there was Planet X's sound crew setting up the stage and later perhaps
12:00 AM they arrived they just walked up through the club Derek, Virgil and
Dave came through first I asked Derek if it was ok if I filmed it with my video
camera he said no problem! (sorry can't trade or sell it) Then I looked back and
there was Tony coming along with his 7-string Carvin guitar. He had to set
up some of his stuff but once he was done I proceeded to introduce myself, he
actually knew my name! I talked with him briefly and got him to sign Maximum
Security and Edge of insanity album covers and the eyes of the world promo
photos I had, he signed it no problem. Then they hit the stage and they
played some really great tunes, like Inside Black, War Finger, Atlantis, plus
many more. I had a really good seat I was at a table right in front with
no one in front of me. Tony played a great solo section with Derek and him
trading solos back in forth it was really impressive! Then later they took a
break while Virgil played a drum solo I walked up to Derek and Tony told how
much I liked their playing! I talked to Tony a while longer before he went back
on he was a really cool! Then the band played some more songs and they
ended the show. Then I got to talk with Tony for quite a while after the show,
he said he really liked my site and wants me to get involved with his official
site.. He also said he wants me to send him a copy of the show I taped I said no
problem, I also got a photo of Tony and I together that ill put up on the site
as well as some live shots. I talked with Tony about all the projects he has
done in the past, he was a really cool down to earth guy, no big ego just a great
person! I had a great time!
