A packed out house cuntplete with a sea of devil horns.

I've never been a huge fan, but it was free, and a pleasant surprise. That dude has to be like mid-fifties, and still nails that falsetto shit. The holdover guy from Mercyful Fate was pretty impressive on the guitar, like a six-stringed time machine to a metalier place.

I have no idea where the travelling satanic road show is headed next, but if it's your town, go see it.

I'm assuming this was not a cover of the old Allman Brothers song?

I'll have to ask Satan next time he shows up ^..^

But I still think that Kiss reject sings like a chipmunk on helium.

Im not sure FORD, for some reason when I hear the name Mercyful Fate a song title "Melissa" pops in my head..

I never did get into King Diamonds vocal style..
