Atlanta Live Music Help Wanted!!!

[Fizrider]

My wife and our 18 mo old are running off to South Georgia, leaving me and the 8 year old terrorist to get into trouble this weekend. Any suggestions as to live music this weekend (Fri or Sat... maybe Thursday and we won't tell mom) which is worthy as well as being an all ages show (since my wingman is 4' tall and 65 lbs).

Jack digs Orphaned Land, Sabaton, and anything Chity has ever done. So he is DEFINITELY into Power Metal, but can get lured into some proggy stuff. He also loved Brazen Angel, so the "southern fried" accents don't hurt.

You can always check here for local metal shows going on. http://www.wrekage.org/events.php
Given what you guys are into I'd say Tuesday night with Korpiklaani would be your best bet. Not exactly on the weekend though. A lot of extreme shows this week though, most of which have great local acts playing too.

Yeah - I wasn't sure my 8 year old would get into Mayhem...

Start him early, so he doesn't end up afraid of death/scream vocals, like lots of full blown men here...

Unrelated note (but sort of related), one of said 'extreme shows' from this week was a last minute INQUISITION concert last night. Booked on a week's notice. One of the best sets I have seen in a long time.....those two dudes blow away most every band on stage.
