Dont get mad at me for telling the truth.

an easy way to save $75...stay home and listen to Pure Holocaust!

Hate you all, burning with jealous rage, etc., etc.

I am not grim enough for this show

I'll be there!!! fuck yeah

the_reverend said: see you there picture taking guy

since tom's being a trick ass punk.
anyone have any hints on how to get there?

drive South

sorry man, testament > immortal

I've been to the area way too many times in the past few weeks so I remember how to get there...

get onto the West Side Highway
BB Kings is on 42nd St which you can take a LEFT onto from the highway...just go towards the light, hahah. It's direclty across the street from Madame Tussauds Wax Museum and D&B arcade.

Parking...if you take a left onto 43rd St. instead of going right onto 42nd there is a couple of parking garages that will be on your right (Early Bird) which are pretty cheap. Otherwise if you have time to drive around you might be able to snag a spot on the street.

oops, type o fix:

"if you take a LEFT onto 43rd St. instead of going LEFT onto 42nd there is a couple of parking garages that will be on your right (Early Bird) which are pretty cheap."

I've seen both bands and testament was so disappoint.. so so so so so disappointing. Immortal on the other hand was one of the best shows ever

if you would only log in.. maybe you could fix shit like that.

what was dissapointing about Testament?

when I saw them, they were just terrible.

i really wanted to go to this, but i cant justify paying almost 80 bucks for it. it was tough to pay 65 for Emperor, but its fucking Emperor, and in comparison i fucking worship Emperor. i thoroughly enjoy Immortal but not nearly the same.

I don't understand this Testament v. Immortal tangeant. Granted they're both metal, but......yeah. A bit different I'd say.

I was just offered a ticket by paganmeg but I CAN'T FUCKING GET OFF WORK!!! fuck

so yep, my contribution to this thread is relevant.
moving on.

I'll BE there....mannnn

thuringwethil said:


Its only in regards to the fact that both bands are having a show on the same day.

If I could get off work, I'd pick Abbath

Testament really only have 1 album I LOVE and another that I think is good while Immortal have like 3 or 4 fantastic albums...

Abbath is disgusted by all of you.

Kinslayer said:

for Testament: The Legacy, then buh-bye basically.

FIRST STRIKE STILL DEADLY
SOULS OF BLACK
THE GATHERING
LOW

immortal...all sounds the same to me, plus, they wear makeup. hehehe. buh-bye!

I'm gonna go ahead and say that Chuck Billy wears makeup too...

this is apples and oranges.

with a side of kiwi

oh yeah, and fuckit, 'cos I can't attend either show

I'll be at Testament. See you there Tom! The Chance in Poughkeepsie is one of my FAVORITE venues. I saw Testament there last year and it was one of the best shows of the year. It's a theater, but it's small, so no matter where you are, you're so close to the band!

I agree about the Chance...

Nice smaller place; I'm so glad the KD/Kreator tour has a date at the Chance.

low sucks so bad!
it's like a depressed teenager album.

porphyria said:

the new order?

DOORS are at 6:30 p.m.

Set Times
7 - 7:30 p.m. - 1st support band
7:50 - 8:20 p.m. - 2nd support band
8:50 - 10:30 p.m. - IMMORTAL

Immortal has and always will be bigger and way more influential than prophyria. Nu skool Death Metal Sucks listenin to Sinister's Hate album and take some pointers.

Who are the supporting bands?

8:30? Fuck...

wolfen said:

Having tickets for the Immortal show and not having a ride anymore fucking blows goats...

SlavonicIdentity said:

You should still go.

Haha, how? I've been waiting six years to see them. This sucks.

immortal are gods... someone give the kid a ride, come on. 6 years? think about it, even if you have to take a bus there and back... i mean, you know they're going to play battles in the north - that in itself is enough. wicked sick live.

i would go except for band practice

Well, it's the ride from the show that's killing us. We have a train ride back to New Haven, but then we're stuck there till 9 am Sat. morning.

Setlist from the Tuska show in Finland

The Sun No Longer Rises
Withstand The Fall Of Time
Sons Of Northern Darkness
Tyrants
One By One
Wrath From Above
Unholy Forces Of Evil
Unsilent Storms
At The Heart Of Winter
Battles In The North

I cant leave work until 4pm and they play at 8:30! I dont see how I can possibly leave at 4 and not miss half their set! :(

Kinslayer said:

Time to quit.

Done and done.

leaving for this in minutes.

Rev you should invest in one of those GPS Units.
They have came down in price.
Have fun tonight.

I've had one since just after xmas. it was $199. where have you been?

I've been at the stormy gates of mist.

seeing immortal with manowar in 2002 was good enough, ill stick to staying home and masturbating.

blue said:

I'd much rather masturbate while seeing Immortal, personally.

immortal was sso good at that show. that's why I'm going.

traffic on I90 is a dead stop. fucking a! I should have left an hour earlier.

HI... I'M GEORGE ZIMMER - FOUNDER AND CEO OF THE MEN'S WEARHOUSE. I TOOK YOUR MOTHER OUT FOR A PICNIC IN A PARK, SET HER DOWN COMPLETELY FLAT ON THE PICNIC BLANKET, BALANCED A PABST ON HER BACK, AND RIGOROUSLY VIOLATED HER FROM BEHIND - QUIZZING HER ON BASIC GEOMETRY IN SWEDISH WHILE SHE HAD A MOUTFUL OF A PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY SANDWICH AND ANTS CRAWLING INTO HER ARMPITS. SHE CAME SO HARD HER FACE MELTED LIKE THAT NAZI ASS IN RAIDERS. I GUARANTEE IT.

they haven't been broken up long enough for me to care $75 worth (aka "i didn't get on the list")

have fun, gents.

rev, make sure you get some good shots of horgh's girdle.

exit 15 on 95 in ct holla!

what is BB king's addy?

I just passed the feng wah bus amd honked a bunch. who took that?

nyc traffic started at exit 9 on 95.

the_reverend said:


237 W 42nd St
New York, NY 10036
(212) 997-4144

thnx I had 245 in my gps

you should have taken 15 south in ct and stayed on the hutch pkwy.

get on 43rd instead for one of the early bird parking garage's.

I know nothng of 15.
hope I don't miss the first band... exit 3 in CT.
32 miles to go...

"withstand the fall of time"

i just got shivers

unsilent storms would be a kick ass opener

24 miles.. gr...

whole fucking people. I'm 1450 yds away. the first band goes on in 11 minutes

I've been sitting outside the st in front of the venue for 20 minutes. driving here sucks.

I told you to TURN DOWN 43RD STREET TO PARK!!!!! WAY TO BE A WEENERHEAD!

43 was a one way against me. I'm not going to break laws to park. I was dealing with the door for like 5-10 minutes and missed the last song of the first band.

tight show

blue said:

show was so sickkkkk. i was stage diving during manowar's set. first and only time i've ever done that

that was a hard drive home.
working on pictures now.

pictures processing still

need sleepz.

wow, you got home before i did...i took a bus though.

Show was nice indeed. I was the person who said "i'm glad you're here at the end" when i was leaving. I wanted to see all the neat pictures.

set list?

Man, I'm jealous...

i found it, would have been awesome to see Mountains of Might live.

christopher: you should have said more.

bsv: tell that to troll.. ahahahah

I would of but I couldn't find my friends and I was bout ready to collapse. Mountains of might was a definite highlight for me, along with One by One and Battles In The North. OH MAN battles in the north

a ride from the north to the north

weird, i was in NYC the day before this at the Kwik e mart. i was dissapointed they did not seel duff beer.

they had it, but it was soda not beer I guess.

annunaki: when I saw them with carnivore, I thought they would totally fit the bill for the immortal show. Unfortunately the sound was un-mixed and horrible for their set. I heard they had no sound check and no where near the ammount of gear. Anyone that saw them for the first time shouldn't judge them based on this show. They usually sound a lot better.

Here I am thinking, "they're never gonna fuckin' play Mountains Of Might" (even though I was channeling my e.s.p. for months in hope of just that) so, I figured I'd go out and get some fresh air *cough cough gag* and ended up shootin' the breeze with Rob from Immolation for a bit. But you see, I couldn't stop running my pissflaps so I fucking missed Moutains Of Might live performed by none other than the the sons of northern darkness themselves.
.......Words cannot describe the way I feel about this.

Glorious shot Rev!

Me and Rotivore represent the White Mountains with our 9 dollar jack n cokes!

hahaha! unfortunately, these kids on the left ain't feelin' it!

that kid behind you is holding up your wallet, I think.
the kids in front's faces are priceless.

immortal: well, like I said, after seeing them in 2002, I really wanted to see them again. DFTG said they sound checked for a while before the show. It was so good I want to head back to see them again. The music was near CD quality even in front of the stage. Plus, being towered over by the #1 most photoshopped people ever was sureal as kvlt tune after kvlt tune blared out at my unkvlt ears. Houghhhcoughcoughcough, Abbath, and some other dude. I've been trying to figure out what their "best" song was of the night. I thought originally tyrants.. then sons of northern darkness, but I'm going to back to go with Tyrants. The change ups towards the end of that song were just so good. Abbath kicked up his heels like a little leprecon. I was right up from for 1/2 their set snapping pictures. Then the second that I went for my 3rd camera, a stink from the front of the crowd... It smelled like someone shat raw eggs salad. At this point, they kicked us out of the pit and I was on the side of the stage. This was during mountains of might, I think. pu.. I know it wasn't Troll cause he was sucking on a fag in the alley outside (fag's the english word for cigarettes). Once I stepped back, I was able to see the sea of people stretched out over the club. This definitely bodes well for them possibly continuing on. If that weren't enough, to end their set, Abbath said "are you enjoying yourself?" pauses for cheers "well, we'll see you next year."
Looks like we won't have to wait another 5 years. hopefully.

on a side note, listening to their fans made me not want to listen to immortal every again. oh well.

do this in american puleez?

plus, I keep saying "We're the tyrants..." over and over in my head.

Are you fucking kidding me?

ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz I just awoke from a nightmare that I missed Mountains Of Might!!!!!!!!!!
*sigh*

I need to smoke a fag and have my crompets and tea.

the_reverend said:

You kidding me????? Hahaha! It's a batting glove! Well, I hear NYC is full of trend setters.
Maybe he's just a germaphobe?!?!

Hey, I never made it to that strip club you mentioned, so unfortunately I couldn't taunt Julia. Late night in Astoria though. Woke up @ 7:30am still very much drunk as fuck when I drove a U-haul and a really fugly french bulldog back to NH. Then, after about 8 hours on the road I get suckered into an exhaustive bike ride which got botched by The Man. Then these fucks wanted to go camping at which point I had to pass. Still ended up drinkin' though.
It never ends.
Were's the "burning the wick at both ends" emoticon?

I think it looks like crows feet on a 30 year old smoker.

$$$$$$$$$$$ said:

Think its cheap to fly your band,crew ect. From Norway to the States play in the most expensive area of NYC then fly to California and back to Norway?
I'm sure if they were in the states for longer than 2 shows it would have been cheaper.
In my opinion it was well worth it. I would have just spent that $ on something useless like drugs or unclean women so.

Oh yea, and I don't know who paid $75 for a ticket.
I know I certainly did not.

I'm so pissed. I bought tickets last year and couldn't go because I had to work late Friday night and Saturday morning. Hopefully they do come back next year.

i paid $50 i dont understand this 75 bs

some people played $100 for "vip"

That was really one of the best shows I've ever been to, and those were some amazing pics, rev

thanks. At this show, I figured out my next drama-thrilling life epic that I'm going to experience.
