Napalm Death
A Life Once Lost
Dead to Fall
Jaxx

This show had 8 or 9 bands, but man, I just don't have the stamina and/or attention span for that. I did a couple things after work and then spent a while trying to figure out what appropriate eye makeup would be (I settled on greens) and then headed over to Jaxx around 9. I figured this show would be sold out or at least pretty full, but it was surprisingly empty. In fact, I would bet that most of the audience consisted of band members and FoBMs. And 'Satanic Hispanics.' Anyway, I got there in time for Dead to Fall. I don't recall seeing them before though it's possible they are one of those bands that I just end up missing on other tours. I thought they were good. They were having a good time making fun of people living in 'Man-asses' Virginia.
I was really looking forward to seeing A Life Once Lost again since I discovered that they're metal Pennsylvanians. They played a pretty long set. The bass player does kinda look like Mr. Riker but I think it's mainly the hat...
So anyway, I don't have too much to say about Napalm Death. I did stick around to the bitter end. They were in fine form - fast and brutal as hell. Fucking awesome.
