Brian shares why he decided to make a book as a natural follow-up to the website he ran for many years that archived the Band performances, setlists, the cities & venues they played at, the Bands they supported & the ones who opened for them. Additionally, he comments on including images of the great memorabilia that comes along with the concert experience: ticket stubs, concert photos, backstage passes, t-shirts, etc., how he obtained them & how the fans played a bit part in helping him piece together the book because of their contributions. Also, the Author provided great insights into the origins of the Band when they were called The Mob (1981) as a Cover Band, Geoff Tate joining, getting signed to a major label, opening for Quiet Riot, Dio, Twister Sister, Iron Maiden, Kiss, Ozzy, AC/DC, & Bon Jovi throughout the 80s, their rise to fame while on the road with Def Leppard & Metallica supporting “Operation Mindcrime) & becoming an MTV staple & arena headlining act while promoting “Empire”.
