You might be surprised V.O.R.I saw them four or five years ago at an outdoor event here in Iowa,and was as impressed then as i was twenty years ago.Anderson didn't have the period garb on ,but still did the one legged solo's and Martin Barr sounded as good ,if not better on guitar.Time might have slowed the players some,but didn't stop the fun or the impact of the music.In short it was great and i would see them again.
There were afterall voted the best Metal Act of 1989!
Not putting them down by my comment. I just have this thing about seeing bands in their prime. I bet they are still quite good. Of course they will never make the Rock N'Roll Hall of Fame because of the snobbism and prejudice against classical instruments.
