The Official 'Upcoming Shows' Thread Part II

[VoidFlame]

Gojira is sold out.

Decided I'm gonna have to pass on Nile this time around. It sucks, since I would love to see them play two sets. But it's on a Saturday, and I can't really ask for any weekend days off for now until NEMHF and MDF. Friday and Saturday are two of the only good work days for me at this point because of school, so I can't justify skipping work to go out at this point. Still plenty of weekday shows to go to, but I'm even limiting those to must-see bands and smaller, cheap bar shows. Current schedule:

2/6-Fresh Kill
2/19-Vektor

3/5-Deftones
3/28-Bad Religion

4/4-Evil Army/Birth A.D.
4/9-Absu
4/19, 4/21-NEMHF

5/2-Nails/Xibalba/Early Graves
5/20-Rotten Sound
5/23-5/26-MDF

6/2-Cannibal Corpse/Napalm Death/Immolation

Passing on Henrik Freischlader tonight. So next show is likely to be Pain in two weeks. Then probably Blaze Bayley, Marcus Bonfanti, Tremonti, and The Union.

February should be pretty decent.

I'm not a big Pain fan but I wouldn't pass up a chance to see them if it ever happened.

Funnily enough, I probably won't be at Nile because it's upstairs. I was there for them in 2010 and the crowd was so thick that I literally could not SEE Nile at any time during their entire set. I am not a tall person so I basically had no chance. This show shouldn't be upstairs, Nile is just two big for that. The quandary of course is that downstairs doesn't sound as good as upstairs. It's a no-win situation; I'm just going to sit it out.

H2O, Terror, Backtrack, and Code Orange Kids are playing pretty close by on March 1st. mite b cool.
