And what do you propose I do about that?

Nothing really, I was merely pointing it out.

Theres a good chance they will play winners. Its around the general area. That would be sweet.

__________________

Who the hell are you? I'll be at that show. Who's your band?

I got my ticket

Should be a badass show. My friend went to see them about a year ago at that same location, and said it was really good.

I don't know who the fuck Trivium is though. I heard they are kinda 'meh' but whatever. I'm there to see Bodom. I've heard Amon Amarth will be fun.

__________________

I just called the curtain club and you can't see Bodom there unless your 17, i'm only 15, oh and is there something wrong with me if i like Trivium?

__________________

oh man , im going down to MA with a friend of mine to see them

__________________

I might go to the NYC show exclusively for Amon Amarth. CoB are great but I just don't really care for them, and much less nowadays. Trivium just suck ass.

__________________

I was in Utah on the 19th And it was a good show
But Amon Amarth only played like 4 or 5 songs and were the first ones
So it was really short, but i wish i could of see more of them.
Trivium made the biggest pit in there,(I dont know if it was cause of the Hardcore people) they were ok they played alot of songs.The bassits is a little guy hahahaha.
C.O.B Fuckin badass like and hour long show or more dont remember. But it was
cool everybody went nuts. Alexi another small guy. The drummer had a solo

And then it was Alexi and the keyboard guy doing solo's it was cool to see

It was a good show but wish Amon Amarth was the headline.

yeah i cant wait for AA im gonna go nuts for them

and bodom. the bodom setlist and stuffa bout them can be found on their forum

__________________

Yaaay, Trivium.

This show was amazing.

Ive seen COB 2 other times and they were so-so, but this time they were waayy more sober. The lighting, the EQ and Sound quailty, how well they preformed, and how the setlist was setup was fucking incredible. They have reallly stepped their game up on this tour, as they should be considering they are headlining.

Our show was sold out, i was so fuckin lucky to get in.

__________________

aewsome. im so excited
how were AA and what did they play

__________________

They were ok, it was cool to see them live, but there sound sucked ass. It was ear peircingly painfull and you could barley hear the solos. They finished it off with death in fire, and did a couple others off of versus (the only one i have of theres.) They put on a good show though, major viking style.

__________________

i know all their songs backwards and forwards so ill love it im sure

and i always wear earplugs so

__________________

Are you still going to the Palladium to see them?

When they come to my city, I'm getting there early to be right up in the front, not in the back like last time...

yes im going to the pallidum to see them are you
but im gonna be front row if i can. hows the crowd size compared to winners? am i gonna have any trouble getting front row

__________________

I might go, I haven't decided. I don't really like any of the bands but a bunch of my friends are going. The crowd size is at least double that of Winners. I got to the front row for Therion, but it was impossible for Nevermore/Opeth. You might be able to do it if you rush right in there. But then, there is also the possibility of being crushed. When a pit starts and the floor is crowded, you REALLY feel it in the front.

hmmmmmmmm.i bet theres a lot of hardcore dancing for trivium too which means people are going to have to make twice as much room

ill probaly stand in the bakc then

__________________

There will be plenty of hardcore dancing for COB too, especially w/ songs like Are you dead yet?

mmmmmmm i doubt it

edit

unless youre just trying to be funny and imply that bodom are hardcore now

__________________

if your going your so lucky.i have no damn ride

I wouldn't say they're hardcore, by I can't help but say that they're being influenced a little by it.

I just went, and I was very unhappy....

why

__________________

I was right up behind the people in the front railing. Amon went first, then Trivium, then COB. Amon set was good, I could see them perfectly and everything went smoothly. 1st half of Trivium set was good too, but then douche bags started getting out of hand and pushing the crowd like crazy. Then through the whole COB set, all my friend and I were doing, was pushing people back to prevent from getting killed. We were all getting squished, and my legs were like cramping up cuz there was literally no space between anyone. It was fucking hot as hell and I was gettin all thirsty and shit too. They played well and had a good set list though.

Yeah, same thing happened at my first Nevermore/Opeth show. I could not lift my hands out from by my side, it was so compact.

yeah im going to stand in the back. i want to be able to enjoy the show

was there fag dancing during trivium

__________________

Well I couldn't directly see any dancing, but I assume there was cuz I saw people flyin around in the middle. There were buncha fags crowd surfing on top of that, as if it wasn't bad enough already. One other thing, the tone was horrible, and I could barely hear the solos. But anyways, on a good note, since we were in the front on the right side, every time they came to the side, we were like right up in front of them. And buncha times during the show, they came to the side and gave high fives and some of my friends were right there to receive them.

Pushing the crowd? you sure you werent standing in the middle of the mosh pit?

__________________

Doh hoh ohohoho!!111

i know what he means by pushing the crowd back. if the mosh starts to get too big theres rows of people with their arms out in front of them holding people back

__________________

i cant believe amon opened for trivium

__________________

Hahah maybe for some people yeah, but when you think about it, Trivium is gonna have more success here in the States than Amon. They were doing their synchronized windmills and the vocalist had like a horn thing that he had like water in it or something and after every song he took a swig out of it. After the show, he was out signing autographs and stuff. He was right there so I felt like getting something signed, but I'm not really an Amon fan or anything so I didn't.

omg i hope hes out there signing stuff when i see them. BEST VIKING BAND EVER im gonna buy like all their shirts

__________________

Haha yeah, I felt the same way for a second, cuz I was leaving the building and then my friend was like "Hey look there's the Viking guy!" and I felt like going there cuz there was no line or anything, like you could just go right up to him and say stuff, but I didn't cuz I don't even know shit about Amon so I probably would've looked like an idiot going up to him and not knowing what to say.

I went to the show in LA yesterday. What a badass show. Amon Amarth were good. They closed with Death In Fire which I enjoyed, and I hadn't even heard their stuff before. So they did a good job.

Trivishit came on a stunk up the venue. The vocalist threw his pick out and then someone down front threw it back. I laughed hard at that. I didn't get anything from their music.

CoB came on and put on a BADASS show. It was really great. The sound was superb, and they played a lot of good songs. Obviously they played stuff from their new album too. I didn't think too much of the album itself, but apparently it sounds really good live. I thoroughly enjoyed the show. Well worth the money.

I will definately go see them next time round.

fuck!!! i would of killed to see Amon Amarth..omg, I kept delaying buying the tickets, thinking I'd buy it later, and when i got around to it, it was already sold out

I went to the Atl show 2 days ago! it was amazing. i missed amon but i was there for trivium and bodom. I actually thought trivium did an amazing show. they had a ton of energy and got people pumped up! the moshing was great when they played! but bodom bassically blew them away!

__________________

Fuck, I would have killed to see Amon Amarth, and COB closing would be a delight...godamn eastern canada!

__________________

yeah, we never get anything...

__________________

I've always thought Bodom puts on good live shows when they are headlining. Just watch some of the bootlegs of their shows in Japan and Korea. Too bad Alexi is a douchebag with their new music. All the faggot Trivium fans are now probably bodom fanboys and fangirls. Trivium suck. They are part of the breed of shitty metalcore bands. Gaahhh. I haven't heard much about Amon Amarth's live sets but I would hope they would be pretty decent considering their one of the best viking bands out there.

dude, you need to shut the fuck up about the new bodom. its all you talk about

__________________

Holy Shit!

Badass Show! Alexi was totally on target last night. I got some killer pics of of everyone. Here's some crazy shit... after the show was over. The whole band of god forbid was out drinking n shit in at the bar. My bro was over there shooting the shit with em. Next thing I know...we're going out to the car and god forbids drummer is coming out with us. We get in my ride and fire up a doobie and sit there and get high with god forbids drummer. He's so fucking cool! He was telling us stories about LoG, Slipknot, and Slayer. Some of the stuff was so hilarious. He's one down to earth dude.
