Old school thread!!!!

I didn't know you were at that Testament gig Iain!!!! (the Koko DVD gig)

I was there aswell

I can't choose american or euro, too close and i love em both!!

I really can't picture Aaron in a denim jacket.

lol i used to fuckin' love it back in the day, i had long hair, hi top trainers and all that crap.

now all i can handle is dad rock and motown

I still wear high tops, because they're silly-comfy. My denim jackets are prime n all. Someone should buy 'em for millions.

Destruction, Sodom, Kreator, Onslaught, Sabbat, Xentrix, Re-animator, Holy Moses, Exumer, Cerebral Fix, Assassin, Deathrow - all amazing.

Just been browsing ancient threads from the mists of time; the final stragglers that limped from the blast wave of the Great Purge shellshocked but unscathed - found the above quote rather... quotable!

Fuck me! Next thing you know, you'll be digging up quotes from me claiming that the Office isn't crap! I was just name-dropping there really. All Thrash elitists do it. Having taken my head out my arse quite some time ago, I can say that Thrash, like everything else in the world, is gant.

If I had to, I'd probably still sway a bit towards Europe in the Thrash stakes. Not that I really listen to Thrash very often but the albums I get the urge to listen to from time to time are generally by European bands: Coma of Souls being the most noteworthy.

Yeah, it was a splendid day, apart from the fact I had to go to London. I went to three different McDonald's and had to sleep under a pool table in Luton airport too. You get to see me in Disciples of the Watch for all of about 2 seconds.

Testament had Seven Days of May on the setlist but didn't fucking play it because there was a curfew at the place. It was a fucking joke like. How many support bands were there? At least four. I'd been up since 5am too so I was completely shagged out. I think I slept through the bands before Susperia. Testament were good though.

Yeah it was a long day for me and my mates aswell, had to leave my house at about 7am to get the coach to London, fuck knows what I did all day

We luckily got to crash on my mates dad's mates floor in Camden, so no all night badness hehe!

I think I saw myself (and Pez) on the DVD somewhere, can't remember when though, ain't watched the DVD for years!!!

Support bands were wank as far as I can remember... 2 I missed, then Panic Cell and Susperia (i think)... we were just sat drinkin in a corner of the venue smoking weed until Testament came on

I didn't know they'd been cut short... that's totally wank!!! Loads of thrashers at that gig, some I've never seen in London since then which is kinda weird! I don't think I'll ever forget that gig, Testament were superb and the atmosphere was ELECTRIC!!!!

Yeah, along with Seven Days of May, Low was on the set list too. It was stupidly hot and we ended up walking six miles around London. We ended up singing God Save the Queen outside Buckingham Palace for some reason too.
