Bring on SUFFOCATION!Can't fucking wait for tonight.
SUFFOCATION IN NOVEMBER!!!!!!
Well, the gig was kinda cool. Stood in front of Rob all night and I dunno if he and Pat were crook, but their body language and attitudes, especially Robs was one of "I cant be fucked!". Rob stood there, no emotion at all, played the song, stop, go get a drink of water, stay at the amp, song starts and walk to front of stage and play again, no emotion, nothing! It was really weird. They took a while between songs to, and Rob was playing "lazy guitar" if thats a good word for it. Alex played the usual, eyes rolled back in his head and George was a bit of a shit hanger! There was a big annoying one note bass drone throughout the gig that kinda sucked and the merchandise was nothing to write home about!
The 2 bands that backed were a bit weird. The 1st Tsz Suey or something like that sounded metalcore and the next band, When the end became whatever the fuck they were, were lifeless and nothing like a band that I would expect to back Cannibal. Those Mesas they were using sounded nothing like Cannibals mesas. So as you can tell, I was disappointed overall, but the end of the gig was cool, Alex jumped off stage and shook hands and had a quick talk with some of us, and I thanked him for putting that band together, and informed him that himself and Steve harris are the ducks nuts to which he replied, No,no,no, I am not worthy. True Alex style showing through there.
I am still sticking with the only band i have seen live who are truly professional (sound, attitude, playing, merchandise etc) is IRON MAIDEN! Everything else I go and see comes off a way distant 2nd.
