Remember they had to slow down Violate during Horror Show tour 'cause Christy couldn't play fast enough!

Have you guys ever wondered why Wolf and Im-Ho-Tep are never performed live anymore?
Cuz no other drummer can do those powerful intros Richard Christy created!  Wink

So... Christy FTW   Cool


This woman speaks the truth  Very Happy

that and wolf's scream is hard to do live as well as the nearly layered vocal work for the verses and chorus's

Im-ho-tep also the same issue. 1 mistake and its hard to hide or keep going.

That and with Iced Earth's ever expanding catalog, the usually have to break in the new songs to support the album. Horror Show was still new when Christy was in the band leading to more Horror Show songs.

you guys maybe right but I am leaning towards my idea of whats going on.
