With his dark glasses and leather trousers Todd La Torre looks every inch a rock star. The second he opens his mouth, he proves it. There’s a reason that the Seattle heavy metallers decided to use him as Geoff Tate’s replacement, and its simply this: he’s magnificent.It’s been a few years since MV saw the band – a real lackluster display with Judas Priest as Tate was off his game. The difference in them tonight is palpable. This is a band that crackles with energy, fair old fizzes with excitement and is proving just how good they can be.
