Okay ya'll last night I saw Trivium Children of Bodom and Amon Amarth! at the white rabbit in S.A Texas. It was my first EXP with AA I had never even listened
to a single song (shame on me) They came out with energy and kept it the whole time. I was right up front getting pressed against the stage (lucky me)
and I really like them. at the end of the show I gave Fred one of my pick I brought with me...he laughed and said Thank you! So I really liked AA and I'm definatly gonna get some of their albums and look forward to the next time they come.
Then Trivium took the stage....now I love COB they are incredible and all...but I was there for Trivium. So I was hyped about it when the end of everything started playing. They then went into Rain then Drowned and torn asunder. like light to flies pull harder on the strings of your martyr the decieved. along with some more. I had problems hearing matts guitar because I was right next to cory's amp. But the sound was very good and very intense I was suprised how it was as brutal as it was on the cd.
Then came Bodom...the place went nuts they played mostly old material and one or two songs from the new album. I bet it was 110 degrees in the rabbit...and I'm not good with heat so I really couldn't concentrate buy this point. About half way through their set everyone left except for Jaska and he had a nice 5 or so minute drumn solo. then the guys came back on and played some more songs. then Jann had a solo and about 2 mintes into it his second key on the left side of the keyboard jammed and wouldn't come loose...so Alexi came in and took a solo...then they dueled for a while had a couple more songs and ended the show.
