Wow, I had no idea that Asia had reunited. I bet that would be a pretty cool concert to see.
I first got into Asia when their first album was released back in 1982 I think it was. I was in 6th grade at the time and was just getting into music back then. Of course it was Heat of the Moment that lead to me buying the LP but I soon came to love the entire album and played it all of the time. I remember getting flack early on in 7th grade from classmates for drawing a large Asia logo on my Pee-Chee folder because they weren't "cool." I didn't care, I still liked them anyway. I even continued to listen to them as I discovered heavy metal later on during the 7th grade school year and I still like their first three albums to varying degrees to this day. I'm not that familiar with what they released after Astra so I can't comment on that period.
Anyway, it's nice to see they are back together and I'll have to watch for them in the L.A. area.
