Say what you will, but every band gave 110% tonight, holy shit. Been a while since I've seen a 4 banger where every band was worth watching. Fire From The Gods was bad ass. So much energy and they outdo their CDs in a live setting. The Hu made me a fucking fan tonight. Originally wanted to skip so bad and was wishing Fire From the Gods was up 2nd instead of them but goddamn. They slayed. These dudes are intense and there is so much cool unique shit going on. Was really happy music like this still has wide enough appeal to break the U.S. market. Loved every second of it. Megadeth blew me away. They were on fucking fire and I could say something that I've never said during a Megadeth show...the set list had a couple of songs in it that took me by total surprise. Not only did we fucking randomly get Dread and The Fugitive Mind (personal favorite deep cut of mine) but they fucking dusted off Angry Again and sounded fantastic. The new songs also really one me over live. My brother summed it up best. It felt weird hanging around after Megadeth said goodnight. Like the bill could have easily ended here and been a contender for top live show of the year. Finally, Death Punch. Good set list diversity here surprisingly. Few songs that I really just wasn't a fan of but I'd be a damn liar if I said these guys don't bring it live. Set is still more of the radio friendly shit but when you have like 18 #1 hits what sense does it make to dive back into the heavy stuff from early on...I guess lol all in all, just an absolute A tier concert experience. Also my youngest brother is 14 and they're his favorite band, so seeing the smile on his face the entire night and the pure ecstasy when I told him he could go to the merch booth and do whatever damage he wanted on Death Punch gear was worth it in and of its own was worth going. Humble little fuck only bought an album and a flag anyway lol great way to end a shitty work week I had an absolute blast. Now Drowning Pool Sunday :!!

Sorry I missed you this time. I was on the rail in front of Dave/Adrian. I ended up meeting Chickenfucker after the show though lol. Show was a blast. Doing it again in Columbus tomorrow.
It's alright brother! I had to work so by the time I got there and got merch, checked in etc. We hit the floor maybe 10 mins before Within Temptation started. Got a pretty good spot maybe 6 rows back and I refused to move so we could secure that all night haha had to be at work at 5am this morning so we had to dip right after
Cool part is though my boss sent me in to do our monthly computer training at 7 and long story short I just woke up lmao definitely gonna wonder why I've been in there 3 hours and gotten nothing done but damn I feel refreshed
