Yeah, I'll be there. I was a bit iffy about it, but the bought a ticket as soon as they went on sale. Saw Phil Anselmo and the Illegals doing Pantera a while back and it was solid. Going to be worth it to see Pantera again, even without the full band.

Little disappointed with the line-up to be honest this year but its a day out of heavy music so I'm there

Fkn love them bro!

PS I was supposed to go watch them live in Germany a few years back but doctors didn't let me travel.

A right pity you were unable to go, or force the Doctor to travel with you, so you met their concerns.

They're an amazing group and would be an experience to see them live.
The gratuitous nature of the clip works well with the meaning of the song.

The line up for Knotfest was pretty average, but still worth it for this alone

It was pretty average
But I had an awesome day.
My daughter loves hailstorm so we made our way to the front of stage 2 early so she would be up front
And she got a guitar pick so she was super stoked.

Pantera.
What can I say, what a set list
It was like I hand picked it. Bloody awesome

I don't mind Halestorm, but that intro just annoyed me. If you want to amp the crowd up, you come on with your hardest hitting song. Instead, she sang a 5 minute solo audition for The Voice.

Jealous. Would of been great. How were Phil's vocals?
Perfect. Honestly, I have been annoyed recently by the fact that some of the best can't hold up vocally any more. Bruce Dickinson struggles. Rob Halford can barely hold a note. But Phil sounded as good as day one. Which is surprising considering the near grindcore stuff he's being doing lately.

Anyone going to indulge on the 20th Anniversary tour for Parkway Drive?

I'm unfortunately at work that week but the fact they are playing at the Entertainment Centre in Brisbane makes me kinda happy I'm away for it.

Nah. Seen them live 6 times already. Kind of tempted but not a good enough line up to get me going. I like Ghost Inside, but iPrevail are pretty crap.

I'm surprised I Prevail are even coming back especially since they did Meh Things in December. Tix are 140 Dorrah too. I'll save my pennies for BMTH next month and Knotfest nek year when Slipknot headline again

Yeah that's awesome. I would've thought his scream would've just about been gone these days, I will have to check out a few more clips of their recent shows. I saw them on the Far Beyond Driven and Reinventing The Steel tours back in the day, brilliant shows.
