That’s right, many of you will remember Photo Magic! and we’re keen to get your pictures live in the blog. Post away, but please remember only to post small pictures, and please only post three max, and one per band. Who wants to see 27 pictures of The Rasmus?

Cheers

By the time the band come on the Astoria was crammed to bursting with long-haired fans of all ages, all bobbing up and down trying to catch a glimpse of the spectacle above the shoulders of those in front of them. From our cramped spot on the balcony (like nine llamas in an Austen Allegro), the crowd looked like cells multiplying under a microscope: growing, teeming and jiggling about to the best of their abilities considering the limited space.
The Children’s masterful frontman, Alexi Laiho may only be five foot nothing but he can still growl lyrics like, “I’m in chains of bestial rageâ€?, with all the menace of someone twice his size.

Such a great show. I took a mate who isn’t into metal, and rarely goes to gigs, and he was transfixed. That’s a sign. Amazing.

God damn! These kids are right on their way to the top. Rumour has it that there were some pretty important down that night, and with an amazing performance of some great songs (and wicked guitar) it’s only a matter of time before these guys find themselves up there with the likes of Bullet, FFAF et al.
