Slipknot Concert

[Dohmar]

LOL, i better not comment, or the same could happen to me

anyone bought their latest cd yet?

Yeah its good stuff. Little more melodic on a couple songs. Not a comparison to Iowa but still really good

-D

I pre-ordered mine a while ago so I should be getting it in the next few days. I've listened to most of the previews but I can't really comment until I hear all the songs in their entirety. To be honest, I wasn't expecting another IOWA or slipknot (s/t) style album as their live performances over the year would have taken a huge toll on their health and ability to produce the aggressive songs like in their early days.

[Leeman]

I bought it sunday, you will be impressed. Reminds me more of the first two albums Iowa and the The self titled, with the new sounds of Subliminal versus.

[Sambo33]

LOL Sled, i think that may solve my problem

didnt see sam or any other sau people, but had a great time. few beers before entry at the goodie was nice, a huuuge army of maggots in that place...

loved the gig... slipknot and machine head were great...

not so great were the arsehole security people.... charged me $5 to 'look after my wallet' because it had a 3 inch chain (that attaches to my belt so shit doesnt get stolen).... then got yelled at by a security guard because i was taking too long removing my cash and ID from the wallet...

Then after the gig, some bastard guard comes and yells at everyone queued up at the wendys stand, telling them to get out of the grounds... and this is 5-10 minutes after the f**king band stopped playing... pricks

Anyhow after giving one of the guys a torn rectum with my verbal combat, i finally get the number of dickhead responsible for the security debacle... i dont see why security guards have to be such f**kwitts, esp when there was a significant amount of police on site...

anyhow, call 8231 0824 (El Dorado Music) and tell them where to shove their nightsticks... been to a lot of gigs and never come away as pissed off as I am now.... security had no respect for any of the patrons... and the fact they STILL wanted my photo ID even tho I look like Im about 40 really shits me...

Anyhow, to summarize

+1 for Machine Head

+1 for the cops being chilled out

+2 for Slipknot and the Maggots

-1 for the Organizers

-2 for the dickhead security

I pray to allah I get some face time with management.

Got there nice and early and found a spot at the barrier to the left of the stage, which happened to be where some of the speakers were...needless to say my ears are still ringing. The only let down was joey not having his hydraulic drum riser for when they played sic. Anyway, I'll give a more detailed review once I've had some sleep, my ears stop ringing and my neck/body isn't so sore.

Stay sic all!

[SLED]

who did the security Ben?

[Chris#3]

I'm mates with one of the guys behind the little barrier so I was giving him crap all night

[Dohmar]

who did the security Ben?

Cant remember but they wore aqua/blue colored shirts. Bunch of f**king neanderthals. Would've been better if cops did the crowd control.
