I'm guessing their open fronted shirts may have gotten then in the photopit. I was afraid for the gear I brought. then 1 of the bouncers started checking ids and the photopit cleared out nice and fast! word on the street is that jeremy schaffer now employs a dozen sex slaves per concert to hold his camera and bag. |

| ____________________________________ [Feb 20,2006 7:22am - anonymous ""] i like to set list in flames |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 20,2006 7:50am - the_reverend ""] then why dont you look at the pictures? |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 20,2006 11:20am - the_reverend ""] trivium: so not that anyone reading this cares, but the lighting was all reads starting off their set. After that it got better. They played really well. it was wicked loud in there. My ear plugs weren't doing enough to ut out the noise. About 1/2 way through their set, they covered pantera's "walk" and thus making it the must frequently covered song since reign in blood. trivium actually had the audience hopping up and down togther.. It was hilarious. I don't really care for their CDs as much as their live show. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 20,2006 12:38pm - anonymous ""] who's that random guy singing with In Flames? |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 20,2006 12:45pm - anonymous ""] nevermind... its a guy i post with on some boards. nice. |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 21,2006 1:49pm - anonymous ""] is there always no flash at the palladium events? |
| _____________________________ [Feb 21,2006 1:50pm - pam ""] I think it's just if the band bitches about it? |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 21,2006 2:38pm - the_reverend ""] yes, only if the band bitches about it. if they bitch about it, the pictures are going to suck cause they haven't taken the time to set up lighting. if you go there knowing there will be no flash, they usually have good lighting set up.. well, sometimes. |
| _____________________________ [Feb 21,2006 2:45pm - pam ""] Bands that complain about photographers shouldn't be allowed to live. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 21,2006 6:58pm - the_reverend ""] in flames: no matter what people think, I can still enjoy in flames sets as long as they are going to play some of the older tracks. I’m not about to list the songs they played cause if you want to know that it’s like one of the first images. Anyhow, for a bunch of guys that are big old sell outs, they were smiling very broadly as they played their set. It hard for a band to fake it when they are really enjoying themselves up on stage. One thing that did suck was waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting and then the smoke machine would come on and… nothing. More waiting. They took so god damn long to come out on stage. I actually had to stand up and get ready multiple times before they were actually on stage. As stated above the lighting sucked so my pictures sucked. They played really awesome though. This was the 5th time I shot them at the palladium I think. They knew the drill with the crowd and how Worcester crowds go over the top of bands. Towards the end of the set, Andres said that his voice wasn’t doing so well. Through some negotiation with the crowd, a kid finally came up on stage and sang a full song. It was pretty hilarious and cool all at the same time. Probably that kids highlight those far in life. The funniest part was when the guitars were all “meedlymeedly mmeeeeeeeeee” he did that strong bad style into the microphone. It was all hugs and he went back into the audience to enjoy the rest of their set. The sold out crowd was rocking the balcony really had upstairs. That makes me very nervous. in the end, I cut out a few songs before the end of their set to sort through the 23490 terribly blurry and underexposed pictures that I took. |
| _____________________________ [Feb 21,2006 7:45pm - pam ""] They were smiling because they just took everyones money and are about to shit on them. The last few times I've seen them they've dummed down the older songs and chugged em out, which made me die a little inside. That's pretty cool about the kid though, I can't imagine how cool that must be...you know, if it were a good band. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 21,2006 7:50pm - the_reverend ""] I want t just saw that you like amorphis. 'nuff said. |
| __________________________________________ [Feb 21,2006 9:22pm - metalunionkaren ""] Actually, I think I heard a few people from the audience scream "TURN YO' FUCKIN' FLASH DOWN", and that, because of you, using flash is prohibited in the state of MA. Tell Carina I said hi. And why the fuck don't I have cool ninja turtle icons for my forum. I think I need to be less ghetto. :tmnt2: |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 21,2006 10:35pm - the_reverend ""] huh? at this show? or at nile? and since when is flash illegal in mass? if think that my flash at this show wasn't any worse than anyone elses. I didn't even take it off my camera. actually on stage right at the end of zao my flash went off too strong accidentally. |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 21,2006 10:40pm - the_reverend ""] what they don't understand is if I hit 84 flashes a second I go back in time. that's how I go to so many shows |
| __________________________________________ [Feb 22,2006 1:48am - metalunionkaren ""] I'm just fucking around. Although there were some random kids in the crowd yelling shit at me. I thought the whole deal at the Nile show was pretty funny. But I think I believe you about the time travel thing. :tmnt1::tmnt2::tmnt3::tmnt4: |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 22,2006 3:08am - the_reverend ""] I had one of the kids yelling "CIRCUITCITYCAMERA" to carina's camera. I also got called and asshole cause after the 3 songs, I packed up and headed out of the pit with my camera over my head. I guess some guy's gf got pulled away from him wiht my backpack and he yelled "hey you fucking asshole, blahblahblahblah" |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 25,2006 11:12pm - anonymous ""] why dont all you IN FLAMES assholes take a listen to DISSECTION and find out where the real swedish melodic death metalers are....seriously, check them out....they absolutely rip.....even ask Nergal from Behemoth, he'll tell you the same thing |
