dragonforce was the best show i have ever seen in my entire life. anyone who puts down dragonforce and boasts gamma ray feel just as im sure gamma ray feels: pissed that dragonforce is younger, faster, and over all just a thousands times more talented than they ever were. and please don't play the metal elitist card with claiming points about how you listen to gamma ray 20 years ago. that was then, this is now and now dragonforce will be the dominating power metal band for some time to come. best show ever. wolf was good as well.

Let me start off by saying that I realllly like Dragonforce, and I realllly like GammaRay.

Anyway,

1) I highly doubt Gamma Ray is pissed at Dragonforce for being "younger and faster and more talented", why? Because well... they aren't.... Sure they are younger, but they aren't really that much faster and certainly aren't more talented. Dragonforce's guitar players arent the shit like everyone thinks they are, they are flashy and over the top and thats what gives them their appeal, but they certainly aren't breaking any guitar player molds with what they do. Gamma Ray has awesome leads, awesome melodies and overall very well constructed metal songs.

2) As mentioned before me, Gamma Ray has not been around for 20 years. Educate yourself on power metal before you open your maw and say something that makes you look like a clown.

3) I highly doubt Dragonforce will 'dominate' the power metal scene. Iced Earth, Rhapsody and Blind Guardian have had a stronger and more steady following for years, Dragonforce is going to be a flash in the pan band over here. There is a really strong buzz about them now, but don't expect it to last.

4) Saying that this was "the best show ever" is pretty dumb, and proves your pretty dumb.... The other prattle you spewed in that little paragraph further confirmed that fact.

Like I said, I really like Dragonforce, I think its good fun over the top power metal. However people every where are licking their nuts like they are the going to be the greatest band ever, they aren't and people getting like that takes the fun out of them as it does with any band. Just enjoy it for what it is, don't make it something it's not.
