First time seeing this band was opening for Dio. They blew me away. Absolutely pummeling live show! Soon after I contacted their (then) bassist Janis Tanaka via email. She actually remembered me from the show and sent me this poster, which she autographed to me. A couple years later I went to see Fireball again at a small club in Albuquerque, NM. Hardly anyone one showed up. The club did a lousy job of promoting and no one knew they were playing. I acted as the band's roadie and helped them carry in equipment and such. Showtime they played for less than 10 people. I didn't care! They rocked the place anyone and put on a show that seemed like it was just for me. Had the other three members sign the poster on that day. (To which they wanted to scribble out the face of Janis, but I begged them not to. LOL!)

Oh yeah! Got that one too! If it would have been vinyl I would have already worn the grooves off it. Check it out:
