I had a great time watching Lazarus AD, Blackguard, and Ensiferum. They were all really high energy and sounded great. I stood right up next to the stage on the right side (if you're in the audience), and rocked out. I smacked hands with the singer and one of the guitar players of Blackguard. Lazarus was way thrashy and good. Ensiferum was impressive and everyone wore kilts. I got some great photos. I had three rum and cokes. I am definitely more of a fan of Blackguard and Ensiferum now, and I'm glad I went. Also, there was some band with corpsepaint makeup on, and they sucked. Fortunately they only played about four songs. That is all. I am pleased to report to you all that the concert was awesome. I had a great time watching Lazarus AD, Blackguard, and Ensiferum.

There seems to be this rule that a band needs a certain amount of press to show immigration officials, whether reviews or write-ups or whathaveyou (not difficult to show for Metal bands given the five billion websites devoted to Metal) but the members of the band all have to have been in the band for at least a year. We had one act that experienced a line-up change a couple months before the tour and immigration wouldn't let the new member through. I'm wondering if this had something to do with Laiho. It's not "his" band and he's a relatively new touring player with Hypocrisy. Might have been what tripped them up.

The border patrol can't keep illegal immigrants in their own country but they can easily stop a band from Europe to enter North America? Ridiculous. Now personally I don't listen to these kinds of bands but I hate how this stuff happens. I agree with Johnny.
