Sabbath little tid bit of a review for any brewers interested.
Possibly the best show ever that I have seen. I was kinda wondering if there would be a crowd of old school sab fans expecting them to play the ozzy era songs but that was put to rest by the crowd in unison chanting for DIO as the lights faded and they prepared to take the stage.
E5150 set the scene and the feeling was surreal waiting for the true gods of metal about to be in our presence.
Then straight into Mob rules and it was clear from the get go that even though 64 odd years of age DIO could sing as good if not better than ever and was truelly awesome with a stage presence that was almost magical as was Iommi's standing with his SG in front of a awesome set with his laneys lined up behind a cool fence.
Geezer butler was a rock and vinny appice gave a drum solo mid show which was actually worth listening to, I kinda don't like drum solos as man you could have fit in another song instead, that and even some drummers find solos boring but not this solo, quite a kit too with some cross shaped cymbals, rack tom towers a kick mounted high behind him.
Set list included amoungst others TV crimes, computer god,voodoo, children of the sea, falling of the edge of the world, I, sign of the southern cross, a extended heaven and hell prepared to end the show before coming back on for neon nights for encore.
A massive awesome night and rock history I'll never forget despite being tanked to the eye balls I think the adrelin and excitement sobered me up just in the build up to them about to take the stage.
truelly the greatest gig ever :super:
Tickets in hand for more shows coming up this year, machine head, arch enemy and trivium in the black crusade tour and also megadeth coming with the gigantour. Motorhead coming up to but I don't think i'll hit that one.
