I just think it is cool that they are coming back to Corpus Christi, Tx. Clear Channel Comm. must be paying Mustaine good money to come to CC again~! That is odd, though, that they skipped San Antonio. I will be there if I can~

COB kills usually. It's good if Wild Child is f'd up but not too f'd up to shred.
