I noticed that San Francisco is not listed (but they are listed on the tour poster) and April 16th list listed as Springfield, VA instead of White Marsh, MD. I'm not sure which is correct.

Here's the Crashdiet tour page: http://www.crashdiet.org/index.php/tour

From www.melodicrock.com :

Hard rock lovers worldwide can click here to witness the worldwide premiere of the video for Swedish sleaze rockers Crashdiet's brand new track, California. The song is taken from their latest album, THE SAVAGE PLAYGROUND, which was just released worldwide via Frontiers Records and debuted at #2 on the Swedish album charts. Next month, Crashdiet are set to take their fiery live show to the masses in North America with a headlining tour kicking off on March 15 at Hooligans in Albuquerque, NM.

A leading force in the Swedish "sleaze rock" scene of the 2000s, Crashdiet harkens back to the glam metal movement of the 1980s, with a more pronounced punk element. Crashdiet has earned an international following of diehard fans through extensive touring, with stints supporting the likes of Motley Crue, Ozzy Osbourne and more. Crashdiet overcame tragedy early in their career when original lead singer Dave Lepard committed suicide. Determined to carry on Lepard's legacy, Crashdiet has endured and has become an example of determination to their fans. Crashdiet is Martin Sweet (guitars), Peter London (bass), Eric Young (drums) and Simon Cruz (vocals).

I caught Crashdiet on Monday in San Francisco. Super high energy show, although a bit short. They played only 10 songs in one hour. Simon's voice was a bit rough, especially on the long high notes. I understand that he had lost his voice last week and they had to cancel a show and had a second show that they played with the the other band members singing instead of Simon. That might be part of the reason for the short set as well. Crucified Barbara, who opened the show, were really great. Heck, they were worth the bargain ticket price just for them alone, not to mention that they were really easy on the eyes. I'd recommend checking out this tour when it comes near you.

Apparently there IS an Empire stop on this tour. It's tonight. Now that's how you salvage a Monday.

Enjoy the show, and don't miss Crucified Barbara's set.

Enjoy the show, and don't miss Crucified Barbara's set.

It was a blast, and I definitely made it there early for Crucified Barbara. They rocked it, and I am in love X4.

Crashdiet was fun too, though the sound was so jacked up on the guitars it overpowered the vocals. Still, it was a great show.

How was Simon's voice? How many people showed up?

I thought he sounded great. I just wish they gave the backing vocals more volume. And I'd say roughly 40 people were there, which is about 35 more than I expected.
