Wow, what a kickass show...Arch Enemy didn't play because (this was their excuse...if it's true or not I dunno...but I think they were just too sick to play) their bus was infested with insects. Weird.
So I'm standing around waiting for tickets, the only American around and I didn't even notice something. I speak a little Italian so I'm asking about where to buy the tickets, and there was this little huddle of people, and I saw an autograph flash in front of my face, and was like, WHAT THE FUCK? There was only about 20 people standing around, and it was about 4 hours before the show started.
So I look up, and Warrel is looking right at me through sunglasses and a hooded Immortal sweatshirt. I said, "HOLY FUCK YOU'RE WARREL DANE!!! I WALKED RIGHT PAST YOU AND DIDN'T EVEN SEE YOU!!!!"
Then he says, "HOLY FUCK YOU'RE AMERICAN!!! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE??" It was quite humorous.
The coolest part of the show was when they sang Dreaming Neon Black, and I was thinking that Warrel would sing the female part, because Arch Enemy wasn't gonna play, and I couldn't think of anyone else who would sing the female part in the bridge. Well, all of a sudden I hear, "I am a child of light, living in your mind...." sung by a female, and was like "What the fuck? I recognize that voice." As soon as I heard it, it all clicked. We're in Milan. Lacuna Coil is from Milan. (by the way I got to meet their drummer...cool motherfucker.) So Cristina Scabbia walks out onstage and sings the part with Warrel. Fucking classic.
