Concert Review for Kiss:
Going in I had low expectations for Paul Stanley's voice however he sounded fairly good throughout the night with some evident help from Erik and Tommy. Instrumentally the band played very well. I'm far from a being a fan of Kiss but I figured they would put on a solid show and they delivered last night. Solid setlist.

I had a family friend coming to the Kiss show tonight in my town. He is unable to make it due to the snow storm in Seattle today. I have been given the ticket instead. It is front row.
 
I'm probably very late, but still.

Behemoth at Birmingham tomorrow! The schedule currently stands as:

7th February - Behemoth @ O2 Institute Birmingham
24th May - Alice In Chains @ Birmingham Arena
29th June - Gojira @ O2 Academy Birmingham
6th July - Rammstein @ Milton Keynes Stadium
 
Just wangled a guest list spot for Steel Panther in Belfast tonight. This pleases me. Not least because I had 4 tickets for Dublin last night and all my loser comrades pulled out and I didn't fancy travelling on my own. I tried to sell them online and only got rid of one (at less than face value).
 
I have just bought a ticket for Gojira's show in Birmingham at the end of June. This is a day before the Demons & Wizards show in London so I will be a broken man for that show. Why do I do this to myself? Perhaps Dee Snider has the answer...


A busy concert schedule coming up. :edmetal:

22/3 Kamelot/Evergrey/Visions of Atlantis, Birmingham
24/3 Cellar Darling, Birmingham
26/3 Skarlett Riot, Oxford
29/3 The Lounge Kittens, London
16/4 Avantasia, London
6/6 Symphony X, London
29/6 Gojira, Birmingham
30/6 Demons & Wizards, London
5/8 Iron Maiden, Montreal
8-11/8 Scorpions Sabaton, Anthrax, Powerwolf, Soilwork etc. @ Bloodstock Festival
28/9 Ancient Bards, Birmingham
25/11 Halestorm, Nottingham
 
Everytime The Wizard puts a list up Cellar Darling (no, me neither) are on it.
Groupie? Figment of your imagination? Let the public decide.

So Steel Panther were a bit shit. The singer did not sing live. Not impressed. Ex Ozzy guitarist, Gus G, was the support. Standard 80s style metal, some decent tunes but largely forgettable. They covered Cold Sweat by Thin Lizzy. Brilliant version. The guy can certainly play. And the drummer can spin his sticks. Repeatedly.
