Yeah, I actually realised last night that I wanted to go to this and I can't go. Balls.

Really looking forward to this tonight.... if you see anyone who looks my avatar... it's not me. If you see someone who looks like my avatar in 20 years time... it might be me. Anyone know what time the first band is on?

AIDsEN are playing down the road at Cockpit. Surely it's time for some Mexican style discipline?

That was well fun, I'm still really, really drunk!

Yeah, it was awesome. I missed the beginning of Gama Bomb... they seemed to be on REALLY early, Evile were good as usual (except the dodgy pre-amp(?) problem which left them kind of floundering on stage and the crowed getting bored). Exodus were top, they played a long set and covered a good range of songs. I'm very glad I went. I think it's gonna be a good tour for all concerned.

One thing that was weird was the reception from a London crowd. I've been going to the Underworld for 15 years and I've never seen support acts get such a warm reception. Most odd... then again it is the Easter holidays and there were a lot of n00bz there

I was disapointed at the reception that Gama Bomb got, they were brilliant though and played wicked! I fell over in da pit and no one helped me up, I was on the floor for like 5 seconds expecting someone to give me a hand, I was disapointed! lol

Evile were awesome, obviously minus the amp problem.

Exodus... neh. I swear they played a load of shit and occasionally a song from BBB, then Toxic Waltz at the end. Was well funny, when Rob Dukes asked if anyone had the Atrocity Exhibit I shouted "IT's SHIT!!!" and the guy next to me looked at me and went "get out" and I was like, "what? It's crap" and he was like "no seriously, get out". That was funny. During one of the songs I tried to get round to the side of the stage for a spot of diving and when I gestured that's what I was doing to the guy at the front he pointed to some guy standing at the side of the stage and I think he said that the the guy was not letting anyone do such a thing, I couldn't hear him very well but I'm sure that's what he said. I seem to remember seeing a video where they threatened to stop playing cause security were kicking a kid out for stage diving, doesn't really make sense. I've just chatted a lot of bollocks but oh well.

oh come on, for an opening act they got a warm reception I thought. At the end people were chanting GAMA BOMB... that never happens for an opening act. They were excellent thought

yeah, wtf was going in there? No stage diving... only homo hugging allowed! People got on stage and they disappeared behind the black curtains...

And they were never seen again!!!! ........

Any chance of a setlist?

I wasn't there last night, but that does remind me of the Municpal Waste gig last summer at the Underworld when Mutant supported, and they almost good as good a response as Waste themselves! It was very cool indeed. From what I've been told anyway, last night the support bands were beter than the headliner! Gama Bomb always destroy face when they play though anyway, and Evile certainly aren't too shabby live either. Glad it went well for both of them!

A few videos from last night:

Gama Bomb - Time Crime - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WKlx2DM5ac

Evile - Enter The Grave - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lf3DMXpHEck

Not the best sound quality but you get the general idea.

I'm off to Leeds in about four hours,any idea how much the shirts were?

great footage spencer!

last night was great,i think exodus should have been on first though as gama bomb/evile were gooder/better.
(but then exodus have been around since the 80s.)
some insane energy from the very beginning of the first set and plenty of dives going on throughout the eve.
some brand new songs and even cameos from the first two bands!
another great sold out night at the underworld,and a great new t-shirt for my collection.

Leeds tonight, should be good.

Awesome gig!!
Some wally trying to hardcore dance during evile, and getting his nose twatted was a most humourous moment.
Onslaught T shirt getting ruined, serious low point!!
Good to see some of the support acts down in the pit during exodus, and had a good chat with philly between sets, although i suspect it was a ploy to lull me into buying some merch, which worked, most impressive!!! haha
