I thought the bass drum and bass guitar on priest set was painfully loud on first few songs but thought they had sorted it after that. Testaments sound was bit muddy with the guitar but Megadeth had a great sound i thought. I could hear everything perfect.

The opposite way round with us, the drums got louder towards the end with Priest. Was ear piercing.

Also... Steve i think everyone would have been chanting "megadeth" during the chorus to Symphony of Destruction 100% as it was done widly on the Buenos Aires DVD which after watching it alot of the deth fans have started to do.



Oh yeah, shit! haha, I made the same mistake during the song live, I was like yeah Peace Sells, then he started singing about the Pide Piper and I was like, oh damn, it's this song. Lol.

I couldnt hear or see most of Megadeth because of people singing along to all the vocal parts and riffs, and thrusting their arms in the air to take endless amounts of photos. The best bit was after they finished and loads of morons were just shambling around asking if anyone had seen a camera/phone on the floor.

I also really enjoyed Metal Gods - it can be a bit of a bland track on record, but it was so pounding live, especially after the relatively unfamiliar opener!

I thought you said "humping all the riffs in my ears" which would have been a lot more funny/disturbing.

Yeah, Metal Gods was amazing! There really is something incredible about that track live. And yeah, for fuck's sake, what is it with the new generation of metal fans and their fucking camera phones? I remember during one song near the end (can't remember which one), I looked around and suddenly realised there were loads of people all around me just holding their phones up, filming the song. Why don't people just put their bloody phones away and enjoy the show? Fucking morons.

Yeah, a European man near me got told off like a school-boy by two seperate security men for using a film camera. He was quite proud of his comeback "you're BREAKING THE LAW you bastards!", whereas in fact I suspect he was.

I also found it quite annoying when people around me kept shouting for "PAINKILLA11!!1!!!!111!!" even though they were obviously going to get round to it and they were playing plenty of other good songs at the time.

Yeah, bloody little idiots who think Painkiller is the best priest song. Also, when me and Stu were walking towards the stadium, a car stopped and asked these young boys what was going on, and they went "Megadeeeeeth!" like idiots, so I shouted "Judas Priest!" but no one heard me. I hate metal fans, they're so annoying.

There were a lot of annoying people there, those twunts asking who Elizabeth Fry was were partially taxing.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...

I've also grown to hate those boisterous shouty boys who are drunk at 6pm and just go around shouting band names and being sick in your hair.
