Well just woke up! pff today to the Dynamo fest I was in bed 5:30 last night slept 3 hours and now off to the Dynamo! Yesterday was the warming up party in the Effenaar club in Eindhoven!
Geez kickass, first of all there was stormrider a metal cover band but not JUST a metal coverband it's Marcel Coenen's band I dunno if you ever heard of him but he is one of Holland's best guitarists, he is in the same league as a Michael Angelo! they were awsome, playing everything from simple songs like ACCEPT or PRIEST to very very difficult ones from TOXIK (Never heard any band cover those guys!!!) and DEATH.
Then the one off reunion of US metal gods LAAZ ROCKIT does anyone here remember them?? "city's gonna burn, "know your enemy", "annihilation principle" do any of thse albums ring a bell?? anyway KILLER to be finally able to see those guys live in the original line up!
The club was sold out weeks in advance it was so freaking crowded it wasn;t even funny, I didn;t expect much from LAAZ but they went down stormy!
Only played classics like "fire in the hole", "prelude", "euroshima", "city's gonna burn", "forced to fight"
Here's Michael Coons wearing a wig HAHAHAHHA!
Willy Lange of Dutch decent he even knew a few Dutch words "GODVERDOMME!!!"
Phil Kettner, does anyone recognize him??
Aaron Jellum, geez he has changed!
Then TESTAMENT was on, well I must say this was the best TESTAMENT gig I ever saw, the sound was clear and very loud....I never thought but here too they destroyed any other incarnation of the TESTAMENT line up I ever saw! I must say Scolnick doesn;t fit in optically anymore but he plays like he always did and that is leagues above most others!
This also as the original line up with Greg Christian, Louie Clemente and Eric Scolnick!
We met Chuck after the show! he told us there was no word on the release of the new TESTAMENT disc yet and there was a possibility they were gonna record it in the original line up!
I read a statement recently stating that nostalgia was bad, lemme tell it shure didn't feel bad yesterday...even better this is the way metal should be!
Now off to Dynamo with LAAZ ROCKIT, OBITUARY, TESTAMENT and the original ANTHRAX appearing!
