Twelfth Gate / Ion Vein show at PRP this past Saturday.

[PowerMetalNerd]

Great job, boys!
Good to see Ion Vein out rockin' again after a two year hiatus.
I like the new singer....vocals are amazing and that dude has a lot of fucking energy!

Look forward to seeing both play Powerfest!

Tell me about it.
We still have to get the Chris Lotesto action figures and Brian Gordon bobbleheads back from the manufacturer!
Time is money!

You guys played a gig? Why didn't you advertise it here???????????

 

[Saladbar]

Yeah no kidding great fucking job, I wasn’t expecting that at all. Al is a hell of a front man, no matter what he did onstage you just couldn’t keep your eyes off him and his range was impressive. Oddly enough the last time I saw Ion Vein was on that same stage. Twelfth Gate was great as well, hopefully 2 weeks from now we’ll get a new tune with Aaron.

 

[Diabolik]

was it smart playing so close to Powerfest?

 

[Jasonic]

I am guessing this was more of a P'Fest warmup thing, since it surely wasn't advertised very well.
I didn't see it mentioned her, or at Chicago Metal Factory, etc......

I got a text message from Rob, that was my show flyer.

I'm sorry I couldn't make it out guys, but I had pink eye all last week and missed the whole week of work. I didn't want to come to the show and possibly infect the crowd with my disease. I hope you guys rocked the house as usual.

Bingo!! You deserve a Bozo button!

It was an unannounced warm-up show basically just for friends & family.

No worries...totally understand. It was definitely a good idea to clear away the cobwebs.

finally, someone who is smart. I hate when people who are sick go places and get everyone else sick. THe worse are the people who come to work falling over sick and then get everyone else sick.

Vito...hats off to you. You are one of the rare people who are thinking smart. Funny you bring this up. I am currently reading this book on deadly viruses and the first step in fighting any disease is quarantine!!!!

So does that mean that you're not coming to Powefest? We should isolate all of the negativity and hatred by quarantining you!

where is there hatred and negativity? again. I am not lashing out ever, just stating my opinion.

Well done!!! That was very Bob-like....

 

[Diabolik]

Well done!!! That was very Bob-like....

what makes that show different than any others? ZING! right back at you.

 

[GateXII]

Well done!!! That was very Bob-like....

No...just smart booking...since our "real" performance will be at Powerfest...hence the term "warm-up show".

And like Bob said...it wouldn't be smart to have an "official" show this close to the fest...not that we would take away any of the fest's draw.
