     I've been an ELP fan for years, but have never been to a concert until
     they came to San Diego on 8/31/98.  To be honest I was expecting a
     cheesy performance by an over-the-hill band.  Wow!  Was I wrong.  These
     guys blew me away.  They were fantastic.

     They performed the same set as all the other shows during this tour,
     although  I was suprised to See KE bring out the Hammond during Rondo,
     complete with daggers and heave it across the stage after squeezing 
     some pretty crazy sounds from it.

     I hope they return next year.  I'll be first in line.
