Back from OVERKILL .... LMAO it was good ... small place, couple of dozens of people, happy headbanging, no picture taking /i.e. ban on + bad light (I did few, but they are all fckd  ... but so what. Plus the band was too close to me ... I mean, I banged against Dave' guitar neck  ) Anyway, .... they played older + new stuff, some punkish tunes, things from WFO, Under the Influence, RelixIV (Old School) ... Fuck You and Drunken Wisdom were apparent hits, btw.  There were 2 support bands from Germany. I got the name of the first one : Contradiction ... they were pretty good IMO :  Check them out here : www.contradiction.de/intro.htmlThe second I dont know ... btw. on guitar they had a chick (the blond head) ... good to see ladies playing thrash !  And now Overkill ....     Plus I met there old friends of mine I havent seen for ages !!!!!! We agreed to meet at Slayer gig in summer (thus I learned there will be a Slayer gig in summer), and in Vizovice for Masters of Rock ... they too are going over to see Ratos de Porao ;D |

Tears for Fears, May 2, Hammersmith Apollo, London
I dragged Paulo to see them. In the end, I think he enjoyed the show more than I did. Maybe I was too much in a retrospective mood... they didn't play enough of their old stuff and too much of their new. Paulo says "Of course! They're touring to promote their new album!". They were good though. They haven't changed a bit so for a little while there, I felt like it was the 80's and I was a teenager again.
They did a really good version of a reworked Mad World... kind of like a Coldplay version heavy on guitars.

Pina : retrospective moods are not healthy ! LOL ;D ... I tend to prefer bands that play their newer stuff (if they have any that is) and yes, bits of old things if necessary is about right.
What is the next show ? ;D
