I'm heading from Belfast City to Birmingham airport, arriving at 9.40 on Thursday. Changing at Birmingham New Street station.
I'm hoping everything's calm by that stage. |

I'm getting the 7AM flight from the city (arriving in Birmingham for 08:05AM).
Was ment to be heading over with a big group of people but no one got back to me when flights/tickets where being bought, so I am flying by myself, so if anyone is interested in sharing cabs/trains/whatever, I can help. |

Hevy Devy was the business last night. WASP were the same as all the other times I've seen them but still good. Though part of me is convinced that Blackie's guitar isn't actually plugged in.
Had to sleep in the car as I was too drunk to drive home |

| Some craic at this. Morbid Angel were deadly, despite the new shite.. sickener about Primordial, but nothing anyone could do about that...fair play to the lads for playing on regardless. |

Press release;
"Firstly I have to thank everyone for their support and dedication during a very difficult
show at Bloodstock on Sunday, we were all deeply humbled by everyone's response
and hearing your voices loud and clear singing our own songs back to us was moving.
The simple fact is from one line to the next my voice completely disappeared. From
feeling perfectly normal within seconds I could not even whisper. This has never happened
to me before in my twenty years of singing. Slowly my voice came back and if we had another
hour left I would have been able to sing again. It seems to have either been an allergic
reaction to something I ate or drank that morning mixed with a complete dehydration of
the vocal chords. Sitting here typing this I am more or less back to normal.
I can only rationalise it that it happens to the best of us and the law of averages states
eventually it was going to happen if you play enough shows, this doesn't help the fact
that I was and am still gutted we could not give 100% because before it happened the
show was shaping up to be incredible...we could all feel the energy and electricity.
I can only humbly apologise and hope that we can come back very soon to make it up
to all of you, I am only human and unfortunately also are my vocal chords. This all said
we have to thank you all for your understanding, dedication and support as we were all
moved by this and also immense thanks to the staff and crew of Bloodstock who
really showed their worth and understanding. Much respect to all of you...and hopefully
I can chalk this one down to experience." |

SAVAGE weekend! Great fucking music for a majority of it! Some technical issues knocking about but still really enjoyed all who I set out to see. Was gutted over Alans loss of voice during the Primordial set. Was heartbreaking to watch him try so hard and for nothing to come out, but fair play to them for playing on. EDIT: Double post ooooops
Great weekend, well run and savage atmosphere. Would recommend it to any longstanding member of the metal community! |
