At The Gates- I was at that Galaxy Club show too. I always go early to see opening bands, found a lot of great acts that way, like Vehemence. I hadn't heard them at all till that show and they totally blew me away. I was the guy with the glasses and the Nile shirt that dragged his friends up to the front of the stage during the beginning of the first song to head bang and give the band some support, since the crowd sucked so much ass. Now that you mentioned it, I remember hearing you yell out for "Whore Cunt Die". But at the time I didn't know any of Vehemence's material, and thought you were insulting them! LOL. I was like, "What the fuck is that guy's problem! These guys are badass!" I think the real reason Deicide never showed up is Glen didn't feel like getting killed by the opening band again.
The crowd was pretty small, I think a lot of people around here only show up for the "headliner" which is shitty in my opinion. Plus a lot of assholes probably saw Deicide wasn't going to play, and left. Personally I didn't mind a bit, cause you guys ruled, and Behemoth and Amon Amarth killed as well. I hope the crowd at the Ridglea a few days ago made up for it! I know there weren't very many of us, but at least we were a lot more enthusiastic! Small crowds aren't so bad when they're all die hard fans.
