I saw Nasty Savage, Siren and Oblivion with two other guest bands on Saturday. It was a good show. I was surprised that they all had so much energy. I would have tried to get some good photos but I was having stomach pain so I didn't really feel like doing it.
Siren's compilation is out on Stormspell Records. Anyone who has wanted No Place Like Home should pick it up, since it has the entire album and all of their demos.

I attended the Sunday show at NYDM Spring Bash. I arrived late because I don't care about The Conqueror Worm or Vänlade, although I caught the last few songs from the latter band. Damien Thorne and Night Demon were decent live, but I went to see Cirith Ungol.
I'm not 100% on the order of the songs, but they played all of the following songs:
I'm Alive
Join the Legion
Black Machine
Blood & Iron
Fire (Arthur Brown cover)
Cirith Ungol
Frost and Fire
Atom Smasher
Death of the Sun
Chaos Descends
Fallen Idols
Encore:
Finger of Scorn
Master of the Pit
King of the Dead
It was a great show. You can tell that they loved being up there and they gave it all they had. It was also quite funny that they flubbed "Death of the Sun" and restarted the song. Jarvis Leatherby made fun of the other band members for being old when that happened.
I saw @Master_Yoda77 and he invited me to do cocaine with him via Facebook Messenger, but we didn't interact in person because I was having some anxiety at the time. Seeing my favorite metal band that is currently active went a long way towards making that better.

I was only kidding there obviously. I don't have enough money to do coke but yeah, the fest was great. That was probably the best Cirith Ungol has been between the three times I've seen them.

Recent shows: Dying Fetus, Nightwish, Judas Priest
Dying Fetus- First time seeing them. I had to sit through several hours of deathcore bands first, but it was worth it. Exactly what I want from a death metal performance- intense enough that it can just consume me but compelling enough musicianship that I can just stop and watch them go to work.
Nightwish was cool. Strong setlist with a good range of stuff from their different records. Floor sounds better on some of the old songs than others, but overall I enjoyed her performance, even if I would rather hear Tarja.
Judas Priest were awesome. Amazing to hear Sinner, The Ripper, and Turbo Lover (I know some people hate it... fuck them, it's awesome) live. Also, I have a new found love for Saints in Hell after hearing it live. Glen Tipton came out for the encore, which was nice to see. My only complaint is I wish they didn't feel the need to play "Breaking the Law" "Living After Midnight" and "You've Got Another Thing Coming" at every show. While I enjoy all three live and get they're good sing-alongs, they have so much better material.
I also enjoyed Saxon as an opener for Priest. I really only know the Denim and Leather album (which they played several tracks off of) but they were engaging for the whole set.
Looking forward to Kamelot in two weeks.

Saxon floored me when I saw them open for Priest. It got me interested in checking out their stuff.

Fuck that. They should cut one of the songs from One Foot in Hell or Paradise Lost and do fucking Edge of a Knife instead. Way better ripper.

ZZ Top had a short residency at the Venetian. They put on a good show and played all their hits. I was the youngest in the crowd by a couple of decades.
Last night I saw Anthrax and Testament. It was my third or fourth time seeing Testament and it was their best performance. They played three songs off the new album plus classics like Into the Pit and Over the Wall that got the crowd moving. Anthrax was good, but it was nearly the same set list from the last two times I saw them.

Saw Red Fang Sundee night. They rocked. Sound was a bit shit though unfortunately. Forgot to take any photos.
I saw them in Germany last year and they were great. They played every song I wanted to hear from their 70's catalogue in a venue that used to be a castle and girls walked around with huge trays with free Jagermeister shots and old people danced and passed joints around.

ZZ Top is always a good show. Seen them twice and once was my very first concert and with my mom and dad.

Just got me my in-crowd ticket. Unfortunately I'm taking antibiotics so I won't be drunk as fuck (which I definitely should be, while hearing Necropolis live and shit). On the other hand, I can just drive there like a lazy basterd. Can't wait for tuesday.
Also, I don't have any friends, but oh well.

I wanted to go to a Polish date but didn't make it. A shame because I wanted to see them live. Perhaps will see them next time. Fingers crossed.

Saw Meshuggah w/ Decapitated yesterday. Although I'm not a fan of the new Decapitated, they were tight as hell. Great live act, they gave 100% after the legal shit in the USA. As far as Meshuggah are concerned, 7 songs into their set and I fell into monotony. The same riffs over and over, just banging my head and shit. It was pretty tiring. Great musicianship of course, but I'm not such a big fanboy to be wanking to every riff of theirs. Also, they did not perform Future Breed Machine or New Millenium Cyanide Christ, which made me quite bitter about the gig. Straws Pulled at Random was pretty awesome tho
