Anthrax (headliner) I'm sorry, did someone say they were metal? Looked and sounded like a punk band to me

Soilwork perferct minus Cookie Monster vocals

Killswitch Engage - Australia's DAYSEND is 1000x better

hehehe...I'll give Daysend a try then!

We had In Flames/Killswitch Engage here in DC three weeks ago... I was having all sorts of fun in the pit during In Flames (during "Only for the Weak") until I got headbutted by some big drunk Marine.

Didn't hurt so bad, except then I realized there was blood streaming from a 5 cm long cut above my left eye, rolling down my face, coating my arm, and dribbling all over my shirt (looked like I'd been painting a red room).

Lucky me, I had to sit out the rest of In Flames set in the ticket office of the club with a wad of gauze pressed up against my head. My sister came to the club to pick me up and take me to the hospital but I wanted to stick around and watch them for at least a few songs. After their first song, their genius of a singer uttered this memorable little quote:

"When we first came to this town [Washington DC], we saw all these hookers everywhere and we thought that DC stood for 'dirty cooter!' Well, now that we see all of you here, we know that it stands for 'DAMN COOL!!!'"

I'm sorry, but out of all the bands I've seen and gigs I've been to, that's the stupidest fucking thing I have heard ANYONE say onstage. So I didn't feel too bad about leaving for the hospital two songs later.

But damn...eleven stitches. Ouch.

The good news, Scotty, is Daysend have just been signed with Metal Blade so it will be much easier for you to score 'Severance' - their debut CD.

Hope you're feeling better


oh and in case anyone didn't know

DA BRAT is on a high!!!

EDGUY ARE HERE IS LESS THAN A MONTH!!!

oh my metal! what am i going to wear?!?!?
Will be seeing them twice in Sydney and looks like twice in Melbourne bringing my total score to 10 times. Not bad for someone living in hell... and how appropriate, their current Cd is called Hellfire Club

Of course, but unlike "true grindheads", I don't feel like having my cut go gangrenous and my whole face turning into scar tissue. 'Cause "grind" girls around here are uuuuuugly...

Plus, the nurses at the hospital were cute...

'Twas nothing. It looked more gruesome than it felt. Besides...chicks dig scars.

I'll see if I track down the Daysend CD though - know of any MP3s anywhere? I'm in dire need of checking out some new bands. So much new stuff is crap... The metalcore trend/plague is in full force.

oh my metal! what am i going to wear?!?!?

lol, you'll figure it out.

BUT THEY STILL WON'T DO A #@%!ING US TOUR...argh...

I've decided...that if I manage to come into some money, I'm going to have a festival next year. Just need to find a decent patch of land around here somewhere, maybe up in the hills to the north. And I'll force all the killer metal bands who have been avoiding me to come and play. I'll call it the No Escape Festival.

Wow, finally I see, why girls like me

 

[Brat]

Well Edguy flew out of Sydney yesterday and it suddenly gets much colder here

Had a great tour seeing them play 3 times and watching them play soccer/football/Fußball

Bring on Wacken!

 

[Lordwalter]

@ Brat: How were they? Did the play real nice gigs? I like the band very much, even though I usually listen to Thrash and Death Metal. But EDGUY are very good for me. Is one of the 2 or 3 power metal bands I like together with RUNNING WILD.

Did you finally get the black german shirt? Did you win against them? Nobody broke their legs? Tell us!!

See you!

I saw Metallica here in Reykjavík with 18.000 people ( 6% of the nation). They did some old shit! It was very hot and some people passed out

In late september I will go on a cruise with a large ship from Stockholm to Finland.

On it will be lots of metal heads, as well as Hypocrisy and Tankard.

Paaaartyyyyy
