From lightest to darkest we have Cleveland American Light, Walleye Wheat, Powerhouse Pale Ale, Riverbend Red, Dawg Pound Brown, and Terminal Stout. To my surprise, I enjoyed the stout quite a bit.
Now if I could just get someone to provide me with a sampler of fine whiskeys... a bourbon, scotch, single malt, double malt, Kentucky, Irish - I am serious - what does it all mean?
Then it was off to see the show on the Nautica Stage. A very excellent place to see a concert. An outdoor venue with the river backing the stage and the city just beyond.
The opening bands were actually very easy to listen to. Often the bands are of the "growler" type with too much bass, poser guitars, and singers who don't sing. This time we were treated to Icarus Witch and Coheed & Cambria. The latter broke out into a bit of Iron Maden's the Trooper which was well recieved, and they also did a tune with a theremin. I spent most of the evening trying to remember the name of that instrument I kept thinking "therm, therm, what!?!?" Remembered it driving down the expressway the next day. Just popped into my head.
And then came: Heaven and Hell
Here we have Tony Iommi, otherwise known as The Master... ruler of the guitar.
and the whole gang: Geezer Butler on bass, Ronnie James Dio vocals, and Vinne Appice on drums.
Dio singing the penultimate "Heaven and Hell" watch out for those flames!
It was a good night. The Indians won and so did the Browns. Some might even consider it a miracle.
I love this city at night... someday I'm going to take a thousand pictures of the lights and the energy.
I love my boy too.
Life is just a carousel, spinning fast you've got to ride it well, it's heaven and hell...
