Nightmare #3 - 3/19/10

Good to be back from the trip to DC. Megadeth/Testament show was incredible, despite being congested all to hell and generally unable to bang my head without much discomfort (you heard me). Tour was an anniversary celebrating the release of Rust in Peace in 1990 and The Legacy in 1987, by the respective bands, or at the very least a well-executed "Oh shit, we just got ready to go on tour with Slayer, but Tom Araya blew out his spine and had surgery, what the hell do we do now?" circuit of slightly smaller venues of North America (sans New England, hence the trouble).

Having everyone in a place half the size of the Avalon scream out

IF THERE'S A NEW WAY!
I'LL BE THE FIRST IN LINE!
BUT IT BETTER WORK THIS TIME!

is almost humbling if you weren't also a part of the thing.

We brought some of that aggression to the airwaves tonight in a heavy-hitting salvo of metal for you. It looked like this:

Prong - Whose Fist Is This Anyway?

Sentenced - Vengeance is Mine
Symphony X - Domination

In Flames - Land of Confusion (Genesis cover)
Ozzy Osbourne - Trap Door

Testament - Alone in the Dark
Megadeth - 44 Minutes

Van Canto - Battery (Metallica cover)
Primal Fear - Church of Blood
Dark Tranquillity - Monochromatic Stains

Manowar - Fight Until We Die

"It's funny playing this album 20 years after I wrote it, in the city that I aimed it at. No offense to any of you, of course. Or to anyone in our government who is a patriot.

Vote for me, and you'll have at least one, motherfuckers!
