so i went to a testament concert last night, my ears are still ringing. it was awesome though. the opening bands were pretty cool. there was this one band named Guerra. they were awesome, they had all these starts and stops and odd time signitures and guitar solos, really sick guitar solos. The lead guitarist was shredding it up on an SG. no one seemed to give them any enthusiasm. i did though, near the end they said "man i gotta be honest with you i hate this fucking town" with that i said "fuck yea!!!" i love honesty. i talked to them after their set was over, they were really cool guys and said they really appreciate that i liked their band. then these douchebags with Dimebag Darrell guitars, Black Label Society Jackets, and Tapout and WWE t shirts came up and started playing this generic, watered down pentatonic based metalcore shit and everyone had a shitfit. i wanted to fucking puke. its bands liek Guerra that are keeping the true spirit of metal alive and no one gives a shit but play a zakk wylde tribute and everyone goes nuts. before i get too negative here, TestAmenT was AWESOME!!! the two gutiarists (Alex Skolnick and Eric Peterson) worked together amazingly, and chuck billy can still sing (and scream) like a motherfucker. they nailed all of their songs. The pit was great too, it wasnt one of those try to kill everyone pits but just a nice go fucking crazy metal pits. i pushed my way towards the front to see Alex Skonick and threw the horns and shouted every time he took a solo, i was within 10 feet of him. he nailed his solos perfectly. unfortunatly i had to leave early because my dad called me and threatened to drive away if id idnt come out to teh car . the good news is TestAmenT is coming back next year so i can see them again and hopefully ill get to meet them some time or another
TLR : i saw testament, they kicked ass, it was the most fun i had this year, Guerra are awesome
