King Cobra, Set Anchors, and Dancing With Paris In Ajax! (Wrap Up)

Recent King Cobra tour which brought us supporting bands, Set Anchors, and Dancing With Paris DESTROYED ajax at hands down the best TOP SHELF show I have yet to have seen. This stop on the tour also featured Of Soldiers And Saints, Longshot, and Falling Forward.
