first show im missing by them in like 7 years, sinus infection for the loss

 

[AMBR]

Wow, what a great time. Like a mini-ProgPower in terms of socialization. That's gotta be the most fun I've had outside of PP in a long time. Great to see Metal Rose, General Zod, AngraRules, Kaosaur, Shaq, and so many more. Looking through my photos, there's much to post, but I gotta get some shut eye now. Thanks to all the great people there tonight for making this one special. Hope some made it into home ok after some drunken bobble... lol

double post

 

[General Zod]

That was the 10th time I've seen them, and it may have been their best performance. And I think they have the sound to thank. They had incredible separation and a perfect mix.

Great to see everyone.

OMG, I had the best time EVER outside of PP!!! My throat is killing me from all the talking and laughing and singing. And I got to grope Zod! KICKASS! I f'ing love you guys!

Symphony X show number 22 for me and they never fail to deliver an excellent performance.

I got groped by...uhh...Milton.

And I went an entire night without telling an extremely offensive joke! Last night was a blast.

What was the setlist? That Blabbermouth link doesn't seem to be working.

Sounds like it was a great show, glad everyone had a blast.

LOL The highlight was Brian almost dying... LOL (that was so wrong)...

 

[7thSaviour]

Glad y'all had a great time! We're looking forward to the 5/01 ATL show!

LOL, I guess everyone made it home ok? We managed to drop someone off in Staten Island and then get down to central Jersey before too late. No, I wasn't driving.

After an $85 cab ride they successfully found their way back to my apartment.

Agreed. However, not a great set list overall.

"Masquerade" is an odd choice.

Nothing from "The New Mythology Suite" (my personal favorite). That was a disappointment.

Seven of the fourteen tracks they played were from the new disc. Now, I understand a band needs to push their latest disc. But did they need to play seven of the ten tracks from "Paradise Lost"? That just seems like overkill.

On a side note, I heard they sold 2,100 tickets. That's simply amazing. Granted, it's their backyard, but still.

EDIT: I didn't catch it, but I heard Into Eternity set a new low as far as awful performances goes. And that's right from the mouth of one of their biggest apologists (who shall rename nameless).

Yeah - that is pretty lame. Very reminiscent of what Maiden did with their previous tour. I just happened to see Divine Wings and salivated.

Very impressive, let's hope they keep the momentum going.

LOL - perhaps getting on some more tours will help shake off the rustiness.

I was told that they're actually upping the complexity in their music for the next disc. That really seems like a strange choice.

I am a huge Into Eternity fan, and I have to say they sounded terrible on Saturday...especially Stu. I think the smoking every night has really taken its toll on the guy's voice, because it was just plain bad. It's a damn shame...
