Very unpsyched since I can't make it tomorrow night.

I went to Danzig, only because he was playing the first record in its entirety. It ripped. That's the only record of his I really love. The rest are meh to me. So I sat out the remaining songs. And, the Roxy blows. You have to pack a lunch to get there, no convenient (cheap) parking, too many peopl...

I think the crowd was bigger than the one at the other show I saw there: Mastodon/Opeth. Never waited more than 2 minutes in line for a drink though.

Anyone else going? Looks like Gorguts is playing tunes from ye olden days.

Q: How did you prepare for this tour?
A: A lot of practice.

Horrendous - Ecdysis - not sure why I bother with these guys. I can't remember a single riff, hook, vocal line or anything of relevance 10 seconds after listening to them.

The King - The Eye

Maiden
Priest
Holy Terror
High on Fire
Dark Angel
Jack Frost (Austrian doom)
But mostly Rokken with Dokken.

Helstar - 30 Years of Hel
Jack Frost - Glow Dying Sun
Invocator - Excursion Demise

Also cracking up over Flots canceling their tour because of zero ticket sales.

I might register a Venom, LLC with the secretary of state, just to see what happens. In any case, it sounds like a rip-riding good time.

Would've been cool, but I wasn't going to pay $125 to see three bands, and I actually enjoy some Swallow the Sun. Oh well...

Anyone going to either show?

Maiden - Brave New World
Priest - Sad Wings of Destiny
Jack Frost - Eden
Incantation - Mortal Throne
Overkill - Electric Age

Pentacle - ...Rides the Moonstorm Nice. That's some ruud Dutch death, if you will. I've read some horrible things about recent Virgin Steele releases, but that's one band that's always slipped under my radar. Impaled Nazarene - Finland, Finland, Fuck Hades - Resisting Success Hail of Bullets - Of F...

The Godz - Nothing Is Sacred

I saw them open for Metallica (!) in 1986 in Dallas. Sort of a biker-rock thing, from what I remember. My 15-year-old self was not impressed.

This ended up being entertaining. Lots of dudes my age (old) "raging" to old-man metal. Blitz still sounds good at 62, so what's Danzig's excuse?
