May have been a combination of it being a Sunday, Imperial State Electric being pretty much unknown over here and with Michael Monroe playing only 2 nights before, he may have stolen Dregen's thunder and Scandanavian Rock Pound a little bit.Boab Digihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06274200331635173117noreply@blogger.com
