I used to call on RIM when they were only 35 employees. Looking all around me and up high at the sold out show of 15,000 plus, I realized this is the fruition of two people that dared to dream! For me, this event dug up old memories of the past - rocked out to the Eddie's Eruption Alex's relentless drum solo, David's story and song about the 'Ice Cream Man' and of course the classic anthems like Panama and Jump!

Who cares... Van Halen and The Hip were great. Van Halen put on an amazing show, which says a lot because they are some of the greatest rock bands ever, are are not exactly young. Most new artists will admit that Van Halen was one of their influences. Van Halen had so much energy and just kept on rocking till the show ended. Wolfgang is only 16 and he was the least active :P I will remember this show forever. RIM is the best company to work for. Who is Earth Wind and Fire? Who cares…

I think they decided to do this because the company has grown to much to be able to have a regular Christmas party because of the amount of employees now. And it was employees + 1 guest (or more in some cases) so the ACC was completely packed. There must have been at least 14,000 people there. I don’t think it was about doing something ‘crazy’.

Rim Rocks in more ways they one and when one adds up the whole tab it wasn't as crazy an idea it would seem likely less than 500.00 per employee.

As for the coments about catering towards an older crowd, there are many younger employees at RIM and everyone seemed to be enjoying the show. Also, think about it this way, Mike and Jim aren't very old, so they basically just got their two favorite bands from when they were younger to play for them at the ACC. Pretty cool in my eyes.

I was there, and I saw David Lee Roth wave a huge red flag and everyone in the crowd was using their blackberry to take a photo and it was much too loud. There was also that blimp being fired by a green laser. The encore had confetti everywhere, and EVH apologized for not playing for years and he made a mistake, and Roth told a story about his girlfriend in 1972. No, Earth Wind and Fire are stupid.

I guess they have to cater to an older crowd as to not seem to cater to the sidekick crowd. Good for them, taken them along time to try to make their products stylish and hip.
