Next up is Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs playing at SWX in Bristol. Awesome band in a venue with amazing sound. I've seen them a few times before and they put everything in to their performance, 90 minutes of non stop heavy metal energy until they leave the stage looking exhausted. I look forward to having my face melted

I've been looking for a preamp pedal. A used Sansamp bass driver is barely any cheaper than a new one

Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons in the Cheese and Grain, Frome last night. They played a tribute to Motorhead to celebrate 50 years since the start of the band. With Phil being Motorheads guitarist from 1984 to the end in 2015, he knew exactly how to do it right. I've seen a few Motorhead tributes but none that came close to this. The singer didn't try to sound like Lemmy but did a great job. Trying to sound like another singer never goes well. They played some greatest hits plus some they rarely performed and one Motorhead never played live. The support act, King Creature were great as well, last time i saw them was supporting Motorhead. An excellent night.

Tainted Skies - Tribulation

Tainted love - Gloria Jones

Since you put it like that, it's a bargain

Grave Digger Song - Mark Lannegan

You've been Mary Buried - Raised By Owls

Going blind - Melvins I think it was a cover but don't know who did the original

Chuckle vision is just drug slang - Raised By Owls

Pretty vacant - Sex Pistols

Black Sheep - Metric

I had the good fortune to meet Lemmy. Now there's a man who appreciated his fans. He just wanted fans to enjoy his music a nd have a great time at shows and nothing more.

March of the pigs - Nine Inch Nails

The worring thing is people will pay for this experience. They probably won't even meet him.

They should bring back the Earache stage. Seeing people confused by Napalm Death was awesome plus I really enjoyed them and Dead Kennedys

Metal and rock can be some of the most interesting music, but not the typical Reading Festival band

If only they knew that heavy metal fans and skinheads are the most friendly people. Bloodstock and Damnation and Arctangent are the most friendly festivals I've been to.

Its got to be difficult playing a festival knowing that probably 75% of your audience are there for your one big hit 20 years ago and have never heard the 6 albums you've made since then.

God hates us - Avenged Sevenfold

Silversun Pickups. How were they not bigger than Smashing Pumpkins? They don't sound dated at all.

They're headlining 2000 trees. The promoter has put on shows with them in Bristol and is a fan of their performance.

Witchtripper - Down

I think Supergrass reformed in 2019 (bad timing).

I wouldn't go to Glastonbury again no matter who played although this year's lineup is tempting it's not worth the ticket price to me. I don't like the mountains of litter mashed in to every inch of the ground, the enormous size of the site, the smell and the ticket price. I go to smaller festivals now which are half the price and much nicer atmosphere and cleaner.
