Post Reply - King Diamond appreciation thread

Saw KD twice. Cant remember the dates. First time was in 86 for the Fatal Portrait tour. In Long Beach, Ca. at Fenders Ballroom.  Sentinel Beast and Exodus opened for him. Great Show. King really brought it that night.
Second time was in Anaheim, Ca. in 88 during the Them tour. Flotsam and Jetsam opened for him. Another fantastic show. The Them house set was awesome and really kept me sucked into the concert.

I agree with the previous opinions shared here. If you have his first five albums, you really already have the best of his work outside of his first two with Mercyful Fate.

(Still kicking myself for missing that concert in California back in 84 that had Mercyful Fate on a bill with Venom and Motorhead. Jeez....what was I thinking?)
