I was a tad skeptical when Tesla was booked at last years Big Purple Party.  They went over so well that a decision was made to try to include an 80's band in every lineup. Taking that slot this year was Skid Row.

Skid Row raised things up a notch. No, I don't claim they were better or worse than any other band. I'm just saying that they killed it way beyond expectations and the crowd could tell they were playing their hearts out too.   I really liked the way they started the show with a recording of Blitzkrieg Bop by the Ramones.  The video I took of some of that is unique because it was taken from the vantage point of the far side of the stage (for whatever reason it seems like we never get photos or videos from there).  I also go a little classic "18 & Life" from the back of the house for ya.  Enjoy.
