I like it fine, but it lacks something I agree. They'll never top 'Slaughter of the Soul' meethinks.

I don't think they realize that what might be fun for them to do on stage, becomes boring after awhile to the audience. It was clear - the crowd livened up when they were rocking out their songs, and calmed down to a stand-still status when they were doing the other crap.

Raven were one of my all-time faves. Until I met the bass player.

Later she brought me backstage to meet the band ar L'Amours Staten Island and I was gushing to John Gallagher on my fave songs from it. He was pissed. Mark let me sing Crash Bang Wallop on stage. They played it waaaY too fast and I lost my place. Saw them again and stayed away from the bassist.
I all so saw them headline over Metallica and they were actually better at the Roseland ballroom 83'

my friends said MAGIC CIRCLE was good. I skipped out on them and part of SLOUGH FEG because I got back from the World Series and I wasn't in the mood at the time to be in sardine can. the venue where the gig was at is pretty small and it gets really hot with all those bodies in one space.

is this what the setlist is like? looks like some nights they play this long set or a shorter one. bummed they are not doing pull the trigger though.they must be using local bands on some shows. up here the 2nd to last band is danava(no idea who that is). going to get there early for MC since i guess they go on first.

one guy yelled for "Pull The Trigger," Brian Ross said that even though SATAN recorded it, he said that he doesn't perform BLITZKRIEG songs (which it originally was) on a SATAN set list. Ross also clowned one guy that yelled for "Dynamo" since it appeared on a BLIND FURY album.

Doesn't matter how late you are mate. They'll still be on the first song.

in total agreement RIOT was underrated.
bought the new AT THE GATES last week. Sounds good, but it's definitely no "Slaughter Of The Soul." Still, not a bad welcome back.

I need to check in with Midge and see if he wants to go. I think I'd get a kick out of all the bands (I really enjoyed Iron Reagan when they played with Only Crime) and this club is an easy walk from my house. I've been looking for a decent GIG to go see there.

There are even a couple of more bands on the bill.....the first slot is changing depending on the venue. In New York, it's Ringworm. In some lucky places it's - get this - the Dayglo Abortions! I wish.
