Download 2012

Well...  Its been 6 years since I logged any text on this blog.  Guess I been real busy with other projects taking up the majority of my time outside work.

However, this does not mean I have not attended any kick ass Rock performances in the long hiatus from this page,  oh no! I've found myself in many a Metal crowd since.  Such as Skid Row (that is Skid Row, without original frontman Sebastian Bach)  still, it was a kick ass performance in our local rock venue - Sin City.  Love/Hate also reformed giving me a chance to relive my teenage years in the local Rock Club, its a real shame that we don't get more of the 80's Hollywood scene.  Its all down to a change in promoters who obviously do not appreciate the fact that there is still a thriving Rock scene here in Swansea wanting and waiting for more!!

On the road I have checked out Thunder in Manchester...
Whitesnake & Def Leppard in Cardiff
Motley Crue & Def Leppard in Birmingham 

Actually...  I also went to the 2010 download festival.  Remember, the classic year:
AC/DC...  Rage Against The Machine...  Aerosmith...  Headlined the main stage.  
That was pretty Epic!!

It seems, all this - as amazing as each show was in its own right, they are all a line up of support acts to the main event I just witnessed on Sunday 10th June 2012.

I feel that I have reached the pinnacle of the Heavy Metal mountain and at the summit of this climb... 
I saw Black Sabbath.
