Immolation/Cannibal Corpse/Napalm Death will be in Santa Ana in about two weeks. I'm going to try my best to make it.

Went to see Opeth last night. Overall a pretty mediocre show- not because of the band, but the sound in the venue was terrible and this one redneck asshole kept howling like a wolf during the quiet parts... I should have expected as much going to Athens GA with a bunch of UGA kids :/

If you lived in my area, you could of never asked for a better venue, the sound was incredible. The past 2 concerts I've gone to were in that location and usually my ears would be ringing of how loud it was in other venues. No problems with this venue, and it was awesome!
There was a really amazing quality one, but I couldn't find it anymore for some reason.

A lot of smaller venues sound like shit and I think most people do not have some ridiculous expectation of what a band is going to sound like live blasting through a PA. Ofcourse there are probably some nice concert halls that sound cool. I'm not big on live shows, but I like to try and watch a band play. If you know the songs and watch a band play it actually sounds better. My main problem with live shows is just to much bass and drums. Opeth has pretty massive guitars so they cut through. Same when I saw Alice in Chains,Velvet Revolver,Heaven and Hell. Jerry Cantrell's guitars were huge despite Alice in Chains not being the heaviest or most metal band on the entire planet.
if the band lets the local soundman do the front of house it is often better when the sound system is shitty... then know the tricks to make it work in their own place... like driving your own beatup car.
that being said I hate when some drunk idiot doesn't know the difference between an opeth show and a judas priest show. Both are awesome but you have very different types of buzzes going on...

At Alex's bar? I went to that show last night, Vektor, Exmortus, Warbringer. Vektor played an awesome set. I don't remember all the songs, but Forest of Legend, Dying World, Black Future, Cosmic Cortex were in there. I got to meet their drummer twice (first time I didn't know he was in the band! he was just like "nice Vektor shirt" and we started talking, then I had to say hi again after their set), and I met the singer briefly.
The singer from Warbringer tried to start a pit and spilled some dude's beer all over me lol. He was cool though.
Exmortus was good too, although they didn't play their best stuff I felt like. Kneel Before the Steel was a highlight. Fun night.

I would love to see Immolation, but do not give a shit about CC or ND

And they fucking killed it! Just as good as when they played MDF even though it was a week and like 6 shows later. They seemed tired and ran into some sound problems but when things were going the metal was flowing! Check out this picture I took of Voltaire Antichristo, I'm quite proud of it.

Deiphago would be rad live.
Vektor killed when i saw them, stood a few inches from them the whole set. only disappointment was that they didn't play Destroying the Cosmos. i don't usually yell songs out that i want to hear like some people do, but i shouted for Destroying the Cosmos, and the drummer just gave me this look like "not happening man", haha.

Sabbat and Witchtrap are coming to Chicago in the Fall. Great opening acts for those bands as well.

I certainly did! Was literally completely absorbed with a massive grin on my face for the whole 1.5 hours.
They played most of Countdown, the playing was perfect, particularly the solos. They have great stage presence too, Dave was awesome!
