Alan Parsons

I saw Alan Parsons live on Friday night. It was great. I saw him at the same theater a couple years ago and that was great also. He didn't play much of "Tales Of Mystery And Imagination" (my personal fave) but that was okay because what he played kicked ass. They had a nice light show, great sound and the band fucking rocked. I took a few pictures with my cheap digital and this one turned out (good enough to post anyway). I had first row in the balcony and that was the perfect seat for this show, as a rule I like to sit as close to the band as possible but it was nice to see the full stage and light show for a change. If Parsons comes to your town I highly recommend seeing him.















To One In Paradise by Alan Parsons
If I could see the sky above
And my mind could be set free
As wild white horses reached the shore
I'd stand alone and oversee
And if the bush before me burns
Should I turn my eyes away
And still the voices I can hear
As clear to me as the light of day
I believed in my dreams
Nothing could change my mind
Now I know what they mean
How could I be so blind
Cold sands of time
(Winds that blow as cold as ice Sounds that come in the night)
Shall hide what is left of me
I've been through times when no one cared
I've seen clouds in empty skies
When one kind word meant more to me
Than all the love in Paradise
I believed in my dreams
Nothing could change my mind
Till I found what they mean
Nothing can save me now
