Clark County Fair & Queensrÿche 8.5.8
I have to respect any group of musicians who have found a way to share their vision and art with tens of thousands of people over decades. I hear where Queensryche, unlike many of their contemporaries, fused the world of progressive rock with long form songs and intricate changes with the mood, dynamics, and adornments of heavy metal. Yet I'm not sure I get it. This band has their roots with bands like Judas Priest and Black Sabbath, which I never connected with. But one can't dismiss a large fan base and long term success. "Queensrÿche has sold over 20 million albums worldwide including over 11 million albums and videos in the United States," according to Wikipedia.

Perhaps some come to the Clark County Fair for the pleasures of fried dough, but my mecca is the Dairy Women's barn for the best milkshake of the year. I had chocolate blueberry and Pam had a peach one.
