Opening bands were boring, nothing unique, and low energy. Iced Earth came on with an awful opening song, something off the new cd. Then played "Violate" (a cool song), and some mediocre nonmemorable song off "Dark Saga". Then, "Angel's Holocaust", another cool song, and just as it was getting good, they ruined it by playing another new song. After that, it got decent again when they played "I Died for You 2" and the trilogy off "Dark Saga 2", which wasn't bad. I don't remember the rest, but I was optimistic about the encore, expecting them to play an old song and the self-titled, and then getting the hell off. Instead they had to ruin my night by playing another 5 songs off "Uncle Sam Sodomizes Schaeffer". Being surrounded by drunk rednecks all night didn't help it either.
Some of the songs were cool, but they were only cool because the music was good, the band contributed absolutely nothing. Owens was a joke when he joined Judas Priest and he's still a fucking joke. Schaeffer is the same lazy mediocre guitarist he's always been, and noone cares about the rest of the band. At best, it was the equivalent of seeing an Iced Earth tribute band. My advice, Schaeffer should quit and start his country band, and the rest of the band should get another guitarist (any guitarist who's been playing a couple years can play what Schaeffer does), and continue as an Iced Earth cover band.
High point of the night: a tie between the drunk chicks flashing their breasts and leaving.
