Photos from concerts I've been to

Uriah Heep

they were the first rock/metal band I saw live, I had seen ajr and Ryan mack live before when I was 15 but I don't like either of their music now so this was the first band i saw live that I still like

I absolutely loved their set and I'm probably gonna try see them again

first metal band I saw live, when I made it to the standing area for judas priest I was standing about 3 feet away from Biff Byford and I still regret not at least talking to the man

They're also the band that made me get my thunderbird and les paul

Judas Priest

I managed to sneak into the standing area for them, we were right at the stage and my friend who was with me got a thumbs up from Rob Halford (none of the judas priest photos were taken by me, there was a dude who was pretty chill so I asked him to send me them)

Maid of ace

I got no photos of them myself but I am somewhere in this photo

we do not talk about the band that came between moa and green day

Green day

don't actually listen to much green day. but they did have a really good set, my dad got a thumbs up from billy joe (there's a chain growing)

Photos from the end of summer:

Bonnie Lalor was the first artist I saw there and I really regret not getting any pictures

the second act I saw was snake pit circus, they're not my kind of music but they absolutely killed it

band 3 was Houston death rays, I liked them but no-one else I shown them to seemed to, they're full on dad rock, even down to all the members looking like dads

S.R.S.H.A. was next, they went down well with everyone and they were the cause of my friend telling me I was simping for all the bassist, but in my defense there were some very good bassists

I don't have many pics of Arcadian Shadows, but they were definitely more showmen than the other bands, down to their singer walking off the stage and performing the whole gig in the crowd, and their bass player followed for one solo

there were two other bands but they were a bit of a mess (and one was a cover band) but right after them was the last band I got to see that night, Ritual Effect

they're currently my favourite band I've seen live because they really knew how to get a crowd going, their singer/guitarist would even get off the stage during the solos and headbang with those in the crowd, it was also my first moshpit and wall of death experience, I also got 2 hugs from strangers thanks to the moshpit which I don't know why I didn't expect
