Metal Thrashing Mad!

Checked out Soilwork, Darkane, Warbringer and Swallow the Sun last night at the Highline Ballroom, which is next to a Western Beef supermarket (awesome!) and couple of "projects." 

First off, it was a good show. Warbringer was the highlight of the night with a blistering 30 minute set that just killed. This band seems promising and rocked... I never found myself lapsing or getting bored with their set. I'm excited. 

Soilwork was good even though they played a few songs of Stabbing The Drama, which I dislike. Not to bad. Overall, it was a good experience since the last show I went to was Amon Amarth back in November. 

The major highlight though is that I met Chris Krovatin by casual accident. Complete casual accident even though I in my constant thinking and musings I wondered if he might be at the show since Soilwork is playing. The thoughts were proven true and Mr. Krovatin proved to be a very chill dude. Now I have to work on getting Mr. Krovatin to visit the school I teach at and drop some knowledge. It would be amazing. 

That's really it. 

Will be checking out a few apartments tomorrow. Dreams might be coming true. Oh snap.
