Just got up. Today is going to be a loooong fucking day. I'm hoping I get out of work earlier than 4:00 so I can have some downtime before driving straight up to Orono for the Shadar Logoth concert (local black metal band) at 7 PM. Hopefully I can get out of there by 9, so I can be back home by 11:30 and straight to bed. Work night.
Well, everything went according to plan yesterday. Got out of work at 3:00 so I could go home and shower. Left at 4, grabbed a bite in Waterville at 5, got into Orono at 6:30. The show didn't actually start until 8, so I went over to my Latin professor's house to get up to speed on my summer class.
As for the concert, I saw two bands play. The first was some sort of LoG ripoff band with a pig squeal vocalist, very appropriately wearing a cowboy hat. They only had one guitarist and all four of their songs sounded exactly the same.
After them was Shadar Logoth, the local Black Metal band I've been following since they sent me their demo a year ago. They put on an amazing show, playing some songs from their 2006 demo and a few from their new album,
Curse, which comes out in a couple weeks. It was well worth driving two hours up and two hours down to see these guys.
I got out of there at 9:30, and made it home by 11:30.
