Trunksan Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 This summer I went to: Depeche Mode, Heavy by the sea Festival (Down :wub: , Slayer, Rotting Christ, Napalm Death) and Roger Water's "The Wall". Quite poor actually, but there weren't that many good concerts this summer in Athens. Anthrax played but I'm not a big thrash metal fan and didn't feel like getting cramped in a club with 40C outside and barely any air-con (as it usually happens aound here in the summer). Clutch had a fantastic performance, I regretted not going, it was 50/50 and I decided not to go. Neal Morse feat. Mike Portnoy is on tonight, I didn't get presale tickets and unfortunanetly I have other things planned for tonight I'm going to this concert, mostly because the bassist of Potergeist is a friend of mine: Potergeist, Psycho Choke, Harsh Demise, Stonebringer And I'm also thinking of going to:Spiritual Beggars, Drunk Motherfuckers, Full House Brew Crew, Six For Nine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant that my concert-going this summer was poor. The Wall was good, especially the sound quality, since it took place in a large stadium there were line arrays hanging around the perimeter so the sound effects (gunshots, explosions...) came from different directions, I turned around twice because I thought something was happening behind me, Pink Floyd's music of course was superb. The best thing was that I got in for free and straight to the expensive frontal area (I have a friend who is a master in sneeking in venues... some of our efforts to get in for free are ridiculous and we are succesfull most of the time). This time we went to the one of the near-by warm-up tracks that we knew had an underground tunnel that leads straight to the olympic stadium, we walked in darkness for about 400 meters... unfortunanetly the door was locked at the end but some windows were open, so we climbed up one, ended up is some kind of trench that gathers rain-water, climbed again, moved a drain cover.. and VOILA we were inside the track!!!! The not-so-good thing was that it was better to be at the center of the stadium, since the wall was huge, one's line-of-view was limited to only a specific part of the wall, missing all the rest of the action taking place. Edit: Now that I think about it, we also got in for free at Heavy-by-the-Sea and Depeche mode, although it wasn't as exciting as Roger Waters, we just jumped over a fence.

Veracohr Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 I just found out about a show in November with Slayer and Gojira. That will be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shpongled247 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 I saw Neil Young this year for my birthday, was amazing as ever even at his age. Hoping to see Hawkwind in the next year while I'm in the UK as they will never come to Australia lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
