I like New American Gospel and As the Palace Burns...but they lost me after that. The same way Metallica lost me after Master of Puppets.

But I'm not trying to hate here, I'm sure it was a great show and I don't doubt everyone there had a blast.

Been waiting to see Gojira for a few years now, but I'd rather see them headline in a club.

LoG always sounds great live, and so does Metallica. Had to be the best Metallica bill since GnR and AiC.

LoG was really good. Gojira was just OK because they had the amps turned way down and the arena was only about 1/8 full. Came off more like a talent show act. They said they were heading back to France today.

I saw them last Dec in Fresno. I'm in the Broken Beat & Scarred video throwing horns. They still kick so much arse live. I was lucky enough to catch a white guitar pick from Kirk and get one of those beach balls during Seek & Destroy. Are they still giving away livemetallica.com recordings with the purchase of a concert ticket? If not, the shows are worth the money in FLAC format.

LoG was entertaining, but I couldn't get into them. The other band I saw with them was The Sword, which were a blast.

I was there, kick ass show, at least once Metallica got on stage.

Lamb of God was horrible, I can't stand the cookie monster vocals. Their drummer was amazing but even he couldn't overcome the douche lead singer

Gojira- I felt bad for them, their sound was horrible, I think they were good but the sound was so horrible I really couldn't tell.

As for Metallica it was my first time seeing them. They rocked pretty well for a bunch of old guys. Lars needs to get his poo together though, drove me crazy with his bullshit interpretations of classic songs like Seek and Destroy and Nothing Else Matters, ugh.

Kicked ass. 5 rows from the stage. Pregnant wife by my side. Can't hear sh*t this morning and am hung over like you wouldn't believe. So worth it. Also, 19,000 people in the place and I sit next to a guy with an Otah jersey on. Same thing I was wearing. At least his was blue and mine was black.

I was about 4-5 rows behind you guys actually, I thought it was odd to see those 2 jerseys lol. They did rock.

First band sounded bad, sound system was off, so you definitely couldn't make anything out that he was saying. Drummer was nasty though. LoG was ok. No one was there for those 2, tons of people came in like 10 minutes before Metallica.

We rode the light rail, and on the way back had the most wasted/crazy/tripping dude on there just causing trouble and all kinds of junk. The whole ride. He got in the face of some 17-20 year old kid and the kid pushed him off. Stopped at 485 and me and a friend just threw him off of there lol. He then pushed some women and her husband popped him in the face. He then ran away. No cops anyway to warn about DUI. Makes no sense, there's 6 cops standing there doing nothing at 5pm but no one there at 12:30am after a concert. Anyway, the cats guy just stood in the train all scared and finally called the cops on his radio after someone reminded him.

Exciting night.

The amount of vag in your post is overwhelming.

Lamb of God is one of those metal bands that comes along once every 20 years or so and just blows everyone else out of the water. Lamb of God pretty much revived the groove metal genre that Pantera started and then to proceded to evolve it into something soo much better.

Whats with calling the lead singer a douche? Seriously? Just because you don't like "cookie monster" vocals anymore (but yet you listen to Sepultura and it doesn't get much more cookie monster than that) does not make him a douche. Randy Blythe has a one of a kind voice that is fuging amazing. He also writes some of the smartest, most poignant lyrics I have ever had the pleasure of listening to.

On a side note, I totally agree about the drummer. Chris Adler is my idol. The dude rocks the fug out of those drums and his double bass skills are unparalelled.

Lars Ulrich is losing it. He can't play most of the more demanding songs anymore and it sounds like he is having a hard time keeping up with the easier ones now. There comes a point when a musician needs to hang it up, and Lars is fast approaching that time.

Ya know, I thought I heard him noticably slow up a time or two during One, but I thought I was just hammered.

What causes that to happen to a musician?

I understand an athlete losing a step or two but a musician unable to play his own music anymore? Is it physical, mental, or just overall burnout?

It's probably the physical part. Some of his earlier songs were/are very hard to play. Dyers Eve for example. It's double bass throughout the whole song. Lots of blast beats as well. The older you get the less stamina you have and that song definately will take a lot out of you.

*disclaimer* I can't play that song either, I'm just a beginner but its pretty obvious how hard it is. Blackened and AJFA aren't too much easier either.

      Surprise! Wait… Surprise Again! Kon Looks Really Good!

      By t96 · Posted

      Ehh, new front office has 2 drafts under their belt -- Salaun draft class was really a horrible class in general, but Salaun has started to show some of his potential and KJ Simpson not bad for a 2nd round pick. This past draft clearly looks like it was knocked out of the fuging park obviously with Kon but also Sion and Kalk already contributing in somewhat big roles for late round picks. And McNeeley has shown potential and lit it up in summer league, seems to be doing well in the G league for a young guy too.      As for this season I think a very realistic goal and outcome of the regular season is sneaking up into a 7 or 8 seed and then winning 1 of 2 play-in games to make the real playoffs. Probably get cooked in round 1 but that playoff experience and establishing that expectation of winning is critical to the development of our young core.

      Statistical reasons to Scratch Ickey from returning as a LT--Even in 2027

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      Sound write-up MHS, as always.  Agree that the smart move that forward thinking franchises make would be drafting a tackle early, if not for sure in R1, depending on who's there. Based on early predictions we're choosing between Fano and Proctor. No brainer here...Fano all day. Proctor does not move the needle for me. In my mind, Icky has less future here than Brooks does. I love Icky, but he has been average as a top-10 pick, one good year where you saw the potential...and that was this year. He's built like a RT and his strengths are there, but he's always played left. I also feel like part of what has held him back from being elite, was his work ethic. He was known for it coming out, but feel like he fell right at home in Carolina and maybe didn't push himself as hard as he needed to. Throw in a major crucial injury that will take time to recover and a historical low return rate to current form, and the outlook is not great. Fano can play both sides and we need to also plan for Moton's departure. Either way, delaying drafting a tackle early this year will hurt us down the line. Our current OL is overpriced and needs to start adding draftees to start balancing out the inevitable changes coming in the next 2-3 years.  As others have said, maybe Icky can replace Hunt or Lewis in a couple years when he's fully recovered....IDK. Also not a guarantee, but then you have to figure out his contract and it becomes even more clouded.

      It's past time to just eliminate it in terms of an event. Just do the voting, name the roster, and move on. When you get down to 6th and 7th alternates it's just absurd. It doesn't mean anything.
