This
was the 2nd night of our honeymoon and like yesterday when we
arrived at KB and got to meet Charlie Starr, when we walked up to Babel, there
was Wino coming out the door. I had met him on several occasions and he
remembered me and we had a nice chat and then he headed off to get some air he
said. He was in a good mood and said the tour was going great.
We
could not decide what to eat but ended up at the Curry Hut and this was a good
choice. The Indian food was excellent. I wanted to order the Phal, which was to
be insanely hot but since we were only getting one dish to share as we had a
big lunch, we did not got for the super hot one. We were to meet up with my
friend Nils but sadly he was sick. We arrived at the venue and I had never been
in this converted church venue and wow. This was a great place, probably the
best venue I have been to in Malmö. Three different balcony layers so it was
easy to find a good place. I chose to be right in front of Chandler (guitarist
for St Vitus) on the first balcony, as the drums are always mixed too loud for
St Vitus since Hank joined. I also talked with Banessa, the great local DJ who
also does shows in Copenhagen as well. Super nice lady..
Orange
Goblin hit the stage at 20:10 and rocked the place for an hour. The crowd was totally
mad for OG and were going crazy on the bass player side. Wild people, moshing
and having a lot of fun. The band played a mix of tracks from most of their
records and I think 3 from the new album. Sabbath Hex was a great one. The
guitar player is really good but he only makes really short solos. Ben, looked
so huge on this stage and the crowd really blew him away by being so into their
set. This was the first time either band had ever played in Malmo. I enjoyed
their set a lot especially Saurman’s Wish and Blue Snow.
Set List: Scorponica, Acid Trial,
Saurman’s Wish, Sabbath hex, Heavy Lies, Blue Snow, Some you Win, Into the
Arms, Devil’s Whip, The Fog, They come back, Quincy the Pigboy, Red the Rising
It
took them a half an hour or so to change out the drums and stuff before Vitus
hit the stage and there was a bit of an altercation with Hank and a guy in the
front row that could have turned ugly but did not. Saint Vitus are also pretty
conservative as far as the set list go each night but I had never seen them
play all the songs from Born To Late. It was a great mix of quite a few of
their more high energy tracks and fewer of the slower ones. I wish they would
mix Chandler’s guitar higher and the drums lower though as Hank, although he is
a great drummer and pounds the shit out of his kit, he does not have to be
louder than all the other instruments. Wino delivered the vocals with
perfection and the whole band had a good time with the very wild audience who
was really into it. I had rarely seen a crowd like this in Malmö. Really fun
night and the band hung out with the audience afterwards which was really nice.
Set List: Living Backwards, I
bleed black, Blessed Night, Let them Fall, White Stallions, The Troll, War
Starter, Lost Feeling, HAAG, Dying Inside, Clear Windowpayne, Born to Late
