I'm afraid of the Hot Topic COB crowd 
but I'll probably be reporting the show from the upstairs level, away from everyone

Last night at the Wiltern was a fucking BLAST! I met up with Michael (eveningninja) and his friends. And at first we were doubtful if we would get into the pit cuz soo many people kept cutting in line in front of us. But everything was fine once we got in cuz a lot of those people in front of us had to go back to the car to remove their belts and some had up tickets and they didn't even know it. HAHAHA at them. Anyway so we got perfect spots all the way up in front. a few tiny, short girls were in front of us, but that was good cuz it actually prevented my ribs from getting bruised on the railing. I was in the center, but a little more on Roope's side. I kept giving him the horns and he acknowledged them by turning his guitar sideways and pointing it in our direction. Alexi was in a REALLY good mood. No puking or anything. He said something like "Los Angeles is the real muthafucking hate crew. You guys blow the other guys out of the water" or something like that. It's cuz the people in the pit had a lot of energy. and I hate how everyone went absolutely crazy when they played newer songs like In Your Face and Hellhounds on My Trail. I personally went crazy when they played Bed of Razors, SNBN, FTR, Children of Decadence...like all the good old songs. Nobody even knew the words for these songs either, how sad. they all sang along to the new shit tho. And Jaskka was a sweetheart. after the set was over, he came up to the front of the stage and started touching everyone's hands, I caught a hold of one of his finger, haha. But those little girls in front of me were so annoying. They were like 13 and every time Henkka would walk to our side they made hearts with their hands and they were jumping up and down like little teeny-boppers, which they are I guess. ANYWAYS, after the show, we went by the tour buses and met some guys from BTBAM and TBDM. Nice guys. AND THEN Janne started walking up to meet us! He was in a good mood too. He took lots of pics with everyone, signed autographs and everything. I got my pick signed by him
Anyways, maybe Michael will post the pics, they're on his friend's camera.
Aw,that sounds deadly! Can't wait till they come back to Europe now
Children of decadence and Bed of Razors, they'd better be planning on making these more permanent setlists.. I'd loooove to hear Chokehold live at a show too. Are they playing SPFTD at these shows?
Mystique1721
bass solo, take one
yeah they played SPFTD. I also hope Bed of Razors and FTR get added to their setlist more regularly. And I've decided I'm only gonna go to the shows that Bodom headlines from now on. Going to shit like Gigantour isn't worth it.

A tour like gigantour is only worth it if you are interested in other bands.
Nikki, are you going to the Philly date too?

Did anyone see the announcement for dinner prior to the NY show? Its a contest sponsored in part by my radio station, 89.5 FM WSOU
I didn't even know about this, but now I'm so fucking excited. I wonder if that means I'm getting to do my interview...I should go find that out.

Apparently there is a contest to win a dinner with COB before the NY show. I can't enter the contest because its sponsored by my radio station. But I did request to interview COB. So maybe this means I got my chance to interview COB.

I'd enter if I lived in America Aw I hope you get your interview! It'd be hard to come up with questions they haven't heard before though.. if you do get the chance could you ask Alexi what significance the number 33 has for him? Always wondered bout that one..

I will remember that question. I would have to ask about blooddrunk, blah blah blah, etc. if I did get the interview. It would be tons of fun though and I don't know if I could let Alexi on air. He curses a little too much for our pathetic 8 seconds worth of on air delay. I would be so extremely nervous that a curse went over air....

Nice! I was wondering if you ended up meeting the band or not. I was actually really impressed by Bodom's performance, they played every song almost flawlessly like it was an everyday thing and it even seemed like they played at a faster tempo. I'm suprised that you didn't like Gigantour though! Bodom played really well there too and they even played some songs like LDB that they didn't play on this tour. Plus seeing 3 metal giants like CoB, In Flames and Megadeth all at one show was so rare; I'm sure that show would have been many other metal head's dream come true!
