The longest day I've had to work yet =0 and totally worth it
Their tour bus arrived at 6am! , the fine folk from alphadoubleplus turned up around 9:30am for a long day of metal and hardcore.
I haven't seen so many merch stands for a while, but with 7 bands playing that was to be expected, soundchecks started mid afternoon, a massive backline of crushing peavey amps =0
Having around 50-60 people around the kufa halls was quite a difference from the concerts i've had until now, all the bands were extremely professional, definately made things very very easy, at one point there was around 12 people on laptops in our backstage =0 quite a sight and probably one of the best adverts for apple too hah
considering it was a tuesday we had a good turnout, a lot of kids showed up, (there was even a kid there from around 4 pm or so that was hanging around listening to soundchecks...now that's dedication =0 .
there was circle pits...even a wall of death on stage during unearth which was a little crazy , and kids climbing up on stage and moshing about, awesome to watch either way =0 and the bands were all on the mark
particular highlight for me was protest the hero who technically blew my ears off, and architects . I had been lucky enough to see most of the other bands before but they definately didn't disapoint,
saw the concerts...bought a shirt ;0
I'll really need a proper camera to put up pictures as the phone camera just isn't good enough for some reason (all the pictures seem to come out grainy)
Notwist tomorrow! , should be quite a few people, definately looking forward to it
good times for the weekend:
