Anyway, the bands included:God Forbid - who I don't know and they only played like 3 songs apparently, so whatevs.
Municipal Waste - a hilarious caricature of themselves that made me giggle. Craptacular and only good for ironic reasons, not musical ones.
As I Lay Dying - were good and energetic. A NWOAHM band like Lamb of God, I swear I've heard them before, but apparently I haven't. They must have one of those sounds I guess.
Children of Bodom - A Finnish band that I've seen before at Gigantour. They were the highlight of the show for me because I like them and my energy fizzled out after four bands without any sugar. But one or two of them may or may not have been drunk/high. Alexi got hit with a shoe! Ha! They played such songs as: Silent Night Bodom Night, Hate Me, Hellhounds On My Trail, Living Dead Beat, Angels Dont Kill, Bodom Beach Terror, In Your Face, Blooddrunk, (I'm mostly just familiar with their latest album so I was happy they played Blooddrunk), and Downfall.
Fun facts about CoB: Formed in 1994 in a town called Espoo. They took their name from the infamous Lake Bodom murders that occured there in the 60's and play out like a hackneyed horror movie plot (OK let's all go to that deserted lake where the sexy teenagers were killed 100 years ago tonight).
Lamb Of God - I've also seen LoG before when they opened for Metallica. I must say I enjoyed them much more last time. But in their defence, like I said I had fizzled out by this time so the energy wasn't there. They were pretty good, I can't complain, but there is no way anything will top the Metallica concert so any further LoG shows will pale in comparison anyway (that's just the way it is! Deal with it!). Randy looked like he almost fell down and I think he hurt himself near the end but kept going. He's such a trooper. They are pedaling their new album called "Wrath", which I haven't had a chance to listen to yet (we'll see if I remember to get it for the collection).
