They put on a decent show, but they only got about 25-30 minutes on stage and there was almost no audience so that had a negative influence on their performance. However I like the female vocal and they have some good riffs. So I think they deserve a chance if you got the time.

I can totally imagine you on the 25th anniversary 70K tons of metal cruise in 2036. I mean - 50? - no problem for you I'm sure!
As for me, I'll be 74 I think - so not so sure (although never say never is a good motto I think )
....and I've been meaning to say this for a while, next-cabin-door neighbor - even though I'm old enough to be your mother , I promise I won't "cramp your style" or act my age for that matter.

I was bored at work yesterday and was going through all the old threads pages back and saw your reply that I missed! So I figured I'd reply.
I'll be there! I may need to buy a fair few 70000 Tons shirts this cruise in order to still have one by the time the 25th anniversary cruise comes around, but I'll be there! You'll be 74 years young! Hey, maybe your grand kids will be into metal and they can chaperone you! Hehe!
Oh, don't worry about that.. We'll meet somewhere in the middle as for our ages. I'm not a "young" 25 year old.
...shit....by then it will be 700,000 tons of metal jetting us to another planet for an Awesome MARS METAL FESTIVAL or some shit like that.....

tyrwoman wrote:oh, no problem, glad you did
That's a cool idea to wear a 2011 shirt to the 2036 cruise (provided there is one of course ) Funny about the grandkids comment - although I doubt I'll have grown-up grandkids in the year 2036 (at least I hope not since my own kids are only 11 and 13!) Who knows - maybe they will like "metal music" then - in whatever form it may exist in the far future. And I like your meet in the middle comment
p.s. you mentioned somewhere that you have a pic of you and Orion of Behemoth - would love to see it - I also met Orion but sadly have no pic ! Huge Behemoth fan here - that's a Behemoth cap I'm wearing in the avatar.

Yeah, I frequently get told that people think that I am older because of how I act and think.
I do! I do! And one with Nergal too. Oh, that's no good! Next time! They're all really nice guys in person which is really cool.
Excuse the poor quality as I had to screen shot the photos on my iPhone from Facebook. Oh and also how disgusting I look as these were taken after the gig, so my hair and make-up leave little to be desired.

Also, since it's my birthday and I tend be nostalgic on such occasions, I was looking through my mountain of old ticket stubs this morning and found some more "then and now" stubs...I've got several of these kinds of pairs, but here are just a few....Rush 1981 and 2008, and Genesis 1986 and 2007.
tyrwoman wrote:^^^ cool gnoff ....I've been meaning to ask you how many times you've seen Amon Amarth - I've seen them 6X now (counting both sets on the cruise) - which I believe is about the most I've seen any band. Ha - I think the only other bands I've seen 6 or 7 times are Todd Rundgren/Utopia (over the span of years 1980-1990), Yes (from 1979-2011) and The Grateful Dead (from around 1980-1991). Then there's a bunch I've seen in the 2-4 range, and a lot I've just seen once.

I already know that I have not seen the amount of shows that you have but I do have you beat on the Zeppelin gig and if you count the individual Beatles touring on their own, I have seen Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr.
I will have to work on my list and then post but this will take a little bit of time.
I may just do high lights.

Even if I don't consider myself as a music freak, I guess I am.
I'm 38 now, so there's been plenty of time to visit shows. Most bands, European or American, shows up in Stockholm during their tours, so there's plenty to pick from too.

Lal@ - I did a similar 'break" at around the same time, but a bit longer from about 1993-2004, due to focusing very heavily on work, graduate school, raising a family, and the like. It wasn't a complete "cold turkey" break, because I did go to a few shows here and there, but relatively very few compared to the period before and after that break. I guess I must be making up for lost time now.Tobbe wrote:tyrwoman wrote:Tobbe - fuckin-a! that's a lot of shows too!! - man - between the people from different age brackets and parts of the world - this is one of the greatest, most interesting threads on this forum to date imo .....so major to that.

Hopefully my choice of words didn't cause anyone offense. The word freak kinda has a negative connotation - but I like to go with the definition of someone who is a bit outside of the norm in their obsessions and passions if you will.....whether it's about music, study of esoteric subjects, or marathoning. I've always thought being a "freak," therefore, is a good thing. Regarding seeing lots of shows, we both live in cities where just about every band tours at some point, which is great! My problem tends to be there are too many to pick from (although I'm glad I have that problem and not the opposite), so I try to be somewhat selective. Case in point - Destruction is playing tonight at a great small venue and several friends of mine are going (including a few from the cruise), but I'm going to take a pass since I just saw them twice on the cruise. Also, I have to work early tomorrow and weeknight outings can be killer.
