Marilyn Manson and Slayer concert

Howdy All :-)

It's been several months and April and I have been doing great. We went and saw the Marilyn Manson show at the Concord Pavilion(SP?). MM had two openers, one was a Southern California band called Bleeding Through. I've never heard or seen these guys before but they.............were..........awesome. The leads singer had an awesome voice and April and I were wishing that we had got there on time because we only got to hear like 3 songs. These guys ROQ'D!!!!!
Here's their myspace page www.myspace.com/bleedingthrough
and here's their record label's page http://www.trustkill.com/artist/Bleeding+Through
You can also get their music thru iTunes. I picked up their latest album but I haven't had a chnce to listen yet.......... but I know that I will love these guys.

So Bleeding Through opened up and they were followed by Slayer. I've never been a big fan of these guy and in fact, truth be told, I can't say as I'd know them if I heard them on the radio. To both my and April's surprise........ these guys were awesome. The drummer has like 6 or 7 hands, he was just amazing. This is good 'ol classic 90's head-bangers Ball kind of stuff. NICE! I will never be a total Slayer fan, but they were cool and they put on a good show, nothing spectacular..... just good frigg'N music and well-played.

Then came Marilyn and he was killlllerrrr! Great songs, some new and some older songs, and a great stage show. I wasn't a huge fan of MM but I dig some of his stuff. He was really, really, great and I am definitely a full-on fan now!

So that's it for the show........ if you get a chance to see any of these groups.......... you should totally go!



take care :-)
