Hangar 18 live at Brick by Brick
San Diego, CA
March 28, 2003

Hangar 18 returned to San Diego for a headlining show at Brick by Brick, an awesome metal venue which hosts both local and national touring acts on its spacious stage. The bill included our friends, Hell Patrol, San Diego's tribute to Judas Priest, in their encore show. Hangar 18 would like to wish the members of Hell Patrol the best of luck in their future endeavors!

The show also included The Spirit of Rush, a tribute to Rush.

In addition to the killer lighting rig available at the venue, Hangar 18 brought along some extra lighting and smoke effects, which made for a great stage show! Special thanks to Anna Yost and Ron Vander Dussen for making this possible.

Rattlehead Enjoys Arrowhead: Also joining us on stage was this kind fellow, Mr. Vic Rattlehead. Vic refreshes with a bottle of pure, clean, natural Arrowhead Mountain Spring Water while he displays a radioactive skull. Vic is the handiwork of master propsmith, guitarist Marty Doty. And yes, that *is* one of Marty's suits Vic's wearing.

Speaking of Mr. Doty, Hangar 18 is pleased to welcome him as an official member of the band! Marty will be sharing lead duties with original guitarist Michael Johnson -- look for Marty *or* MJ at a show near you! Welcome aboard, Marty!!

THIS is why the man is called "Fro"...

Mellefson grits and grins in a rare moment of standing still. The spacious Brick By Brick stage had her frollicking from one end to another all night like a kid in a playground at recess.

BEER GOOD! says drummer Dave Scott Cedrick Samuelson.

Flyer Gallery #4: The Brick by Brick flyer features Vic Rattlehead from the Peace Sells cover with live shots of Hangar 18 collaged faintly in the background. The flyer was designed by Melanie Sisneros.

Special thanks to our Mega-Crew, who travelled down to San Diego with us on a Friday night: Anna Yost, Ron Vander Dussen, Jeff Fahnestock, and Carol Anderson.
