I think "A Different Kind of Truth" is on par with Van Halen II, Woman and Children First and Fair Warning. It's BETTER than Diver Down. Of course, none of the above are better than the first record, and 1984 is its own, keyboard driven animal.

I will be at the show TONIGHT in Louisville, KY. I'll be getting in a limo in a little over an hour! See ya on the other side!

Thanks RRW,

Did they play Eruption with the opening song or was that #22?  #20&23 are my favorites by them, no coincidence they're both from the first album.

Eddie worked Eruption into his guitar solo, but it was expanded with new material as well.

They're switching "Outta Love Again" with "Girl Gone Bad". I think it's cool they are switching the songs a bit on tour....unfortunately, I do not have any tickets and the show in my area is sold out.
