Can't go wrong with a line-up like that, seems like a killer show!

Fuck yeah guys, let the metal flow form these luminaries and pioneers of true heavy metal! Iced Earth have been pioneering Metallica's riffs and stellar songwriting on great albums such as Framing Armageddon, and Stu's completely original rendition of the band's past vocalists as well as his lyrics about cutting his wrists are so strong. I'd gladly sit through an hour of Schaeffer and his metalcore inspired chugs! They're a great band, forget those dopes that say they haven't written a good riff in twenty years and Schaeffer is a wingnut!

Sabaton are also amazing, and perfectly complement IE'S originality. They're bringing Euro power metal to Americans, and their vocalist who looks like an AWOL trooper is amazing! METAL fists!

The act's getting old.

Wow, they're playing nothing from either Stormrider or Burnt Offerings! Would be kind of fun to see Jon play some stuff from his End the Fed solo album. Alex Jones could introduce the band right before he plugs his "fluoride free" water filters.

Just caught the gig last week and I must admit, Sabaton was ridiculously fun. A solid combination of Swedish power and energy that was very difficult not to like. Forty to One, like a motherfucker!! IE was pretty much what I expected. Not a bad performace at all but not enough classic material for my taste. All Plagues and no Stormrider definitley makes Jack a dull metalhead.
