The concerts thread

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Same.

 

[rms]

i havent been to a concert in so long, I think im turning into a festival only guy...these tours all blow, they don't even bring good openers with shitty headliners anymore

 

[Zephyrus]

Just ordered tickets for Dimmu Borgir @ Worcester and for Amon Amarth/Belphegor the next day, same place. Gonna be quite the weekend.

 

[xgramx]

I'm going to Children of Bodom, The Black Dahlia Murder, and Between the Buried and Me friday in Columbus. Hopefully COB won't suck really bad, and possibly play old stuff. Has anyone gone to this tour, and can give me an idea of what to expect?

I'm going to Children of Bodom, The Black Dahlia Murder, and Between the Buried and Me friday in Columbus. Hopefully COB won't suck really bad, and possibly play old stuff. Has anyone gone to this tour, and can give me an idea of what to expect?

Follow the Reaper
Smile Pretty for the Devil
Silent Night, Bodom Night
Living Dead Beat
Hellhounds on My Trail
Blooddrunk
Sixpounder
Angels Don't Kill
Children of Decadence

Hate Me!
Bed of Razors
In Your Face
Banned From Heaven
Hate Crew Deathroll
Everytime I Die
Downfall


And here's my review:

5th best concert so far

That was the most tiring concert I have ever been to. All the girls started screaming when everyone started pushing at the beginning of BTBAM's set. lol

They were good but I wish they would of played Ants of the Sky. I'm not a huge fan but I love that song.

The Black Dahlia Murder was amazing.

I was in the back for Children of Bodom by the sound board then in between 2 songs I ran through the pit and somehow made my way to the front and got 2nd row right in front of Alexi. The sound was good, you could hear the keys, solos, and Alexi wasn't drunk (pretty sure). The setlist was pretty awesome.....it was nice to hear Children of Decadence, Follow the Reaper, Hate Crew Death Roll, Chokehold, and Bed of Razors......plus Downfall is always good. I have NEVER sat down at a concert in my life but I was about to pass out so when COB only had 2 songs left, I had to sit down. That was a crazy and fun night.

Man thats a great lineup! Belphegor and Amon Amarth crushes live!

Seen AA three times, can't wait to see Behphegor! Bondage Goat Zombie finally "clicked" with me. I'm sure the title track will slay in a live setting.

 

[waif]

Know where Woostah Pizza is? That's my rendez-vous point for these shows. Especially since they don't serve food in the venue.

Sure. Don't know where it is, but I can find out.

Hopefully seeing Amon Amarth, Ensiferum, Belphegor and The Absence in Worcerster.

Meet us?

Just ordered tickets for Dimmu Borgir @ Worcester and for Amon Amarth/Belphegor the next day, same place. Gonna be quite the weekend.

Nice.
If you're gonna be in Boston I can show you In Your Ear btw.

AA fucking crush. I've listened to some Belphegor in preparation, I dug the stuff before Bondage Goat Zombie but I bet it'll all be good live.

 

[Zephyrus]

Sure. Don't know where it is, but I can find out.

Just walk down mainstreet a couple blocks (in the direction of the DCU center) from the Palladium and it's on the left. Or I can just meet you outside the venue.

Nice.
If you're gonna be in Boston I can show you In Your Ear btw.

Good thing to do on Saturday. PM me your cell.

what kind of setlist does Kreator usually play? I would go for them if they didnt play 90s material and up mostly..

 

[SentinelSlain]

This weekend I saw Blaze and Skyclad with some unsigned bands. Great stuff, especially Blaze.

 

[GameFreac]

Saw Kataklysm/Eluveitie last night

Great show...KOK was good

Eluveitie was probably good but their sound was HORRIBLE so I couldn't tell...so disappointed

Dying Fetus...meh not a fan

Kataklysm was amazing. I got in the pit for the first time for a whole song ever during In Shadows and Dust. It was awesome. I had a lot of fun

 

[Zephyrus]

what kind of setlist does Kreator usually play? I would go for them if they didnt play 90s material and up mostly..

I'm pretty sure "Pleasure to Kill" and "Extreme Aggression" are setlist staples. And now that they're more serious about thrash again, they may play more classics.

 

[Belligerent]

Can't WAIT for Amorphis/Samael tomorrow.

Free tickets FTMFW

...who's seen them live before? Out of curiosity do they concentrate on the Elegy era stuff or the newer stuff with the new singer? Either way i love it all(except for Far From The Sun)

Apr. 10 - Palladium - Worcester MA

HELL.
FUCKING.
YEAH.

what kind of setlist does Kreator usually play? I would go for them if they didnt play 90s material and up mostly..

If the setlist resembles any random 10 songs from Live Kreation with a couple from Enemy of God on top I'd soil myself.

 

[grimmy82]

The Absence was terrible. And everytime I walked by the merch table, the dude was like "Hey babe. You should buy our album." Uh yeah no. I'm going to spend my money on booze and Belphegor merch, thankyouveryfuckingmuch.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

I'm going to Amon Amarth at the Palladium. New album convinced me. Epic, it is. The best I've heard from them for sure, even counting the first couple.

 

[waif]

FUCK YEAH.
Although Once Sent is vastly better than anything else they or most other melodic death metal bands have produced.

But anyhow.

Meet up with me and zeph?

 

[Zephyrus]

Sick. UM meet @ Worcester. We can meet with my friends Pat and Gabe at Woostah Pizza.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

I'm going with my friend Dan, who drove Nick and I to MDF (and will be again in '09...so sick). There's a chance we'll hang out with you
