  • @imjopping

    I'm so happy when the "non metalhead" reaction guys go to their first metal show. You're a metalhead dude, and I love that you embrace it. So happy that you got to have this experience! And got to see some other world class bands too, like Behemoth and Gojira. Hella cool! That said, side stage isn't ideal during a show. You don't get to see most of the production, the sound quality is shit because it's all directed towards the audience, you don't get to feel the vibe of the audience, and end up feeling like you're in the way of the crew. So I hope you get to experience the full spectacle someday :)

      $17 for a beer? You sip that shit like a fine scotch! Are they seriously charging that much for a beer? It better be a 2 liter (yes liter, none of that retard units bullshit) cup!

It was a memorable day for me. i totally forgot that i was mad once slipknot started playing. Slipknot was worth driving almost 2hrs and more. Not to mention that it was also jay’s birthday🤘 and i left w my slipknot tour shirt and got home to sip on my no.9 slipknot whiskey 🤣
