Never got a chance to post last night.
This was a GREAT show. Four bands, all of them rocked.
Prymary - I enjoyed the last time I saw them, and was looking forward to it. The set was so short though! Maybe five songs? Great band, picked up their newest CD but haven't given it a listen.
Dark Haven - Damn are they young, but lots of energy and a good sound. I picked up their CD as well, but it was disappointing compared to what I had just seen. Maybe their new stuff is just better, or their old recordings weren't the best. Don't know, but they were a lot of fun. Nice guys too.
Epica - What can I say, great performance. It was a slightly different set than at PP7, but they did do the Death cover as well. Simone was having some problem with the mic thingy on her dress though, and was messing with it the entire time. To be honest, it was kind of distracting to the performance. She should stick to wearing outfits she can headbang in.
Kamelot - Holy fuck was that a great show. Seriously, it was incredible. Kahn is amazing live, I had no idea. The finale with March of Mephisto was amazing, and left goosebumps on my arms for a while. Of course they were never going to get to all the songs I had hoped for, but it was a great set list. I'll definitely be picking up their new DVD when it hits the shelves.
The Galaxy is still my favorite venue in SoCal, and I can't wait for Blind Guardian. I did see a few PP t-shirts in the audience, but never really got a chance to talk to anyone. Hope everyone that went enjoyed it as much as we did.
