Theme Day: Metal

Hopefully I have a bit of a different take on the August Theme Day. This month the them is 'metal' sure, sure, Minnesota is home of the Iron Range in the northern part of the state. My take on the 'metal' theme is the 'Heavy Metal' variety. I enjoy a good, loud, head banging, fist pumping, mosh pit, thrashing guitars, pounding drums, guitar solos and a singer who doesn't sound like Britney Spears. From row 14 at the Kid Rock concert at the Xcel Energy Center on April 13, 2006. This is my 'metal' theme day photo. Oh and I may not exactly enjoy the mosh pits, I'm not as young as I once was.

Encore at the kid rock concert in St Paul, Minnesota

Perfect! I've seen a lot of metal, but this is the first metal band I've seen amongst today's theme bloggers.

Rock on!

Happy Theme Day!
