so i just got back from the concert (my first concert ever) and god it was the most epic experience of my life...Firewind opened, they were ok, there were a few good guitar solos, the crowed wasn't very lively, and then it was Divine Heresy, the mosh pit was ****ing INSANE, it was like WW3, and then there was a wall of of death, and needless to say, some people got hurt (i went to the bathroom during intermission, and there were tons of bloody kleenex's in the garbage ), and following Divine Heresy was Dark Tranquillity, who was AMAZING they started off with Terminus (Where Death is most Alive), and they also played Focus Shift, The Treason Wall, and a couple of other great songs (mostly from the Fiction, and Damage Done albums), they put on a great show, Mikael said several times how much he enjoyed the crowed, and he put on a great show, and then last but not least was Arch Enemy...the crowed went ****ing berserk when they played Ravenous, and Dead Eyes See no Future, there were 3 amazing guitar solos; one by Michael Amott, one by Christopher Amott, and then a solo by both of them together, and there was an amazing
drum solo to, towards the end, when i was thinking "damn, they forgot Nemesis", Angela said they have one more song to play...and guess what they played. epic moshing ensued, and when the song was over and AE walked off the stage, the crowed cheered for atleast 5 minutes, and started chanting "ARCH ENEMY!" Chris came on stage and started playing a mellow solo, then Michael came, and joined in, then the drummer (whos name escapes me atm) started playing, and then the bassist came in, then Angela came on stage, and they played We Will Rise.

i bought a Dark Tranquillity shirt (has some skulls on the front, and tour dates in the back), and an Arch Enemy shirt (has the AE pentagram on the front, and on the back it says "PURE ****ING METAL"). I am really sore...my back hurts from standing so long, my head, and neck hurt from headbanging like a mofo, and my throat hurts from screaming at the top of my lungs, but i do not care, it was ****ing epic!

sorry if this blog post seems like i'm rambling...i'm been up for almost 24 hours, and i have lots of energy drinks in me, as well as some alcohol, and some second hand weed in my system...so i'm a little crazy right now

stay Metal

Never been in a wall of death, but I have seen it happen in front of me and the person at the front of one side was a chick. She just knocked down the guy she ran into Sounds like you had an awesome time. \m/

I've always wanted to attend a concert. Arch Enemy ROCKS! Love Nemesis by Arch Enemy...

Sweet for arch enemy. but DT is kind of meh.
and I used to be a fan of firewind, they're a pretty decent band.

Man I remember my first concert. I had the privilege to see Morbid Angel and Pantera as my first concert. I've seen Arch Enemy twice and they've been good each time. I haven't had the pleasure of seeing DT though. Unfortunate that they didn't play much off their earlier stuff though.

Sounds like you had a great time. Glad you enjoyed yourself.

Glad you had fun . DT owned when I saw them. And Firewind were great as well.

firewind only played 3 songs...they were only up their for like 15 minutes, i would have gladly taken a few minutes off of Divine Heresy's time slot to have a few more minutes of Firewind

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'm going to see Dark Tranquillity and Opeth the same day in August, and I can't effin' wait!

Really? Firewind played like 30 minutes or more when I saw 'em.
Posted May 27, 2008 2:54 pm PT
the bands played progressivley longer as each one came. Firewind was up for about 15 minutes, Divine Heresy for about 20, Dark Tranquillity for about 35 minutes, and Arch Enemy for about an hour

Yeah, that's usually how it works... but 15 minutes just seems short. Oh well.
