Craziest concert:

I saw Gallows live in philly. I wrote a review for that show -

The majority of this show felt pretty restricted. There were signs everywhere that stated “No Moshing, Crowd Surfing, ect. Or you will be thrown out.” So everyone got the vibe pretty quickly. The show started off with She Rides! (Who I personally thought were pretty damn good) followed by Cancer Bats, This is Hell, and finally Gallows. Nobody with the exception of two drunk people moved for the first three bands, then as usual, it all went straight to hell when Gallows came on.

In the front there was an annoying drunken barsteward mouthing off at Frank every five seconds. Funny for a while, but it got old really quick. I had never seen Gallows prior to this show but I can only say it was everything I imagined it to be. Lots of moshing, stage diving and rampaging even though there was the ‘risk’ of getting tossed out. I got crushed by some fat guy jumping on me near the left of the stage when Frank told the crowd that, “when your stage diving, you should try and jump on people BIGGER than you.” The security guards were being assholes but it was to be expected. Some highlights during their performance:

- Frank let the drunken barsteward try to sing the first ten seconds of “In the Belly of a Shark” before stopping him and kicking him off stage for being an asshole.

- During their final song, “Orchestra of Wolves”, a security guard apparently was punching someone in the back repeatedly and Frank stopped the song and called him out for it. All I remember is hearing him call the guard a “pussy.”

Overall, even after all the pain I experienced it was worth it. Keep kickin’ ass and taking names, Gallows.

I also almost broke my leg at that show when 10+ people fell on top of me in the pit. Also, a man who was at least 250lbs stage dived onto me. JUST me. Nobody else, and I felt like I had a concussion for weeks after it.

hahahahahahahah

Ive seen both IKTPQ and PWD live, don't really dig their music can't say you'll enjoy it or whatever, but yea lets say theres an interesting contrast of people who frequent their shows hahaha. I'm pretty sure my friend saw PWD, or at least one of the bands that was supporting their tour on friday, wouldn't suprise me if he left before PWD.

One of the most memorable shows I've ever seen was probably this local band in a tiny as fuck room in a squat, about maybe 5 X 5 meters big and the room filed to the brim of an array of punks, who mostly stank like complete shit. Like within five seconds of the bands intro, I found my self flung from in front of the band to the other side of the room, with some guys whisky and cola spilled all over my shirt. People were getting so fucken gnarly. When one person fell over a chain reaction occurred and another 10 people would fall over with them. People kept bumping into the band and their guitarist's lead kept falling out. They told everyone rather than moshing take your shirts off to show your appreciation for the band, people took their shirts off and kept beating the living shits out of each other. There was big ass fuck off girder coming from the roof in the middle of the room and people kept dangling off it and hanging upside down. There was a light bulb dangling from a long ass cord right next to the beam and had  a cover, my mate was swinging on the girder and kicked the cover off and everyone started beating the shit out of the light bulb, hitting it and shit. The band had to finish early because they physically couldn't play, even with dudes standing in front of the band making sure nobody bumps into them.

I've seen some pretty off the hook shows before, but that one probably takes the cake as the most memorable and the first that comes to mind. Good times

[Smegma]

Shit, pompous noise bands who think their music has some "intellectual integrity"

It sucks here.

[Rainbow Concussion]

Tool
Circa Survive
Chiodos
Lamb of God... wall of death. Scariest shit ever.
A Perfect Circle
The Killers
The Go! Team
Arctic Monkey

Im forgetting a few...

[Gortaak]

I have seen so many bands that I could not list all of them, there simply wouldnt be enough room. I also have every single ticket from every single show Ive seen and played in. Here is a small list of the bands Ive seen:

Six Feet Under
Slayer
Cannibal Corpse
Dying Fetus
Meshuggah
The Haunted
Dark Tranquility
Witchery
In Flames
Behemoth
GWAR
The Blach Dahilia Murder
Soulfly
Opeth
Cradle of Filth
Dimmu Borgir
Machine Head
Children of Bodem
Iron Maiden
Cephalic Carnage
Megadeth
Lamb of God
Arch Enemy


Thats not including all the festivals of bands that Ive seen (Sounds of the Underground, like 5 Ozzfests). Ive seen just about every single band that I like. And most shows that I go to have atleast 5-6 bands. Best part about metal shows is you get one HELL of a night for your ticket price, which is usually resonably priced.
