I would like to see Alien Ant Farm and Spineshank... never listened to Skindred, though. Not sure if I can be arsed to try getting into them.

I got into these dudes back when they supported Down at the Mandela Hall. Haven't seen them since. Stoked.

No protestors outside either. And just one lad waving a Palestinian flag for 10 seconds at the start of Disturbed's set.

I'm not down with the sickness.

I must be the only one looking forward to Disturbed more than Megadeth. The latter I've seen a number of times and aren't that great live (although maybe the hired guns will be great).

Disturbed always seem like a cracking live band, and they have a bunch of great songs.

Hopefully, their set isn't affected by any knobhead protestors.

I'm just gonna buy out the whole 3arena for the gig and put a deckchair down in the mosh pit.

Hard to think of something worse than seeing Disturbed but there it is.

A load of aresholes waving Palestine flags outside a metal gig would be much worse

yeah.protesting against a man who signed bombs which potentially killed innocent children is really bad.

He signed an artillery shell with "Fuck Hamas". It would be like someone from the UK signing "Fuck Hitler" on an artillery shell in WWII.

He obviously expected the shell to be used against Hamas, who are a genocidal, antisemitic terror group. Could it have been involved in civilian casualties? Sure.

But there's also a good chance it just blew apart some Hamas arsehole.

You should just go have a wank to a Disturbed album and stop making a dope of yourself trying to rationalise on behalf of a cunt.

I might continue to do both, thanks!

Slayer were decent.

The sound for Hatebreed and Amon Amarth was brilliant, merely passable for Slayer and Anthrax, and terrible for Mastodon. Brann's vocals had zero subtlety. It was like he was yelling in my ear.

Hope the 30 minute slots are extended to 45m for London, given there were timing issues for Cardiff.

The running order for the day:



Not sure what I expected but I thought there'd be at least an hour of Sabbath, with guest vocalists handling most of it and Ozzy mumbling through a couple of songs.

Anthrax getting 14 mins., so about 7 mins. for an original song after Antisocial and Got The Time. 

It's going to be such a shitshow.

I saw this in text form on a website and thought it might be a mistake when I saw 15m for Lamb of God. 45m for Mastodon seems good, and I was thinking all the bands would get that.

Kinda glad I didn't go. I'm going to Slayer in London instead

I got mixed up and thought this was Bestial Warlust, until I realised I didn't know any of the albums. 

I thought it was nice that they were going to live stream it. But then I found out it's £25 and on a two hour delay.

There was a lad outside selling bootleg shirts for 8 quid when we were getting the luas home after 

Never realised the ones outside were bootleg. I'd have thought it would be illegal to do that and they'd be chased off. Better than €55 for a shirt, though...

It's like a rave in here.
