I bought my ticket fromm one of the bands, so it was $20. I felt like I should've paid them more money, heh. But then I spent hundreds of dollars actually getting there, so whatever. Also Virgin Steele was genuinely better than expected. I would like to go to this Manowar show but, well, the price. Nope. |

Yeah, not worth it. Ragnarokkr this year is looking pretty badass though. It's at Reggie's right in the city this year too. Mojoe's was a cool venue, but getting to Joliet was a pain in ass too, what with the money I spent on cabs. I'm playing the fest this year so I don't have to worry about a fest ticket. Still gotta pay for airfare and all that, but the way I see it, it's a small price to pay for getting to share the stage with bands like Oz, Omen, Exumer, and Shok Paris. You hitting it up again this year? Also, I agree that Virgin Steele was fucking stellar. The PA for the vocals I think was fucked up though. I was struggling to hear DeFeis at times. |
| __________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 6:39pm - chrisREX ""] I would love to see Virgin Steele. |
| _________________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 9:01pm - Headbanging_Man ""] I kinda wish I was at this, though on the plus side, at least I'm not in Worcester. |
| ________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 9:09pm - KEVORD ""] They are loud as hell and sound amazing but are playing a lot of new songs. |
| ________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 9:36pm - KEVORD ""] And now they're playing all hits and it rules. |
| _________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 10:13pm - KEVORD ""] They played for two hours with no encore which was kind of lame. They didn't play heart of steel which pissed me off. Joey told the crowd that they brought their own PA and sound which is why it was so expensive. They were the best sounding band I've seen at the Palladium. There was probably around 300 people there it wasn't packed at all. They should have had an opening act because a show starting at 8 and ending at 10 is pretty lame. |
| __________________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 10:21pm - KEVORD‘S BALLS ""] Oh hai, Manowar. |
| _________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 10:24pm - Spence ""] Really? Only 300 people? O.o There must have been, what, a good 1200-1300 at the March show last year? Oh well, lame. Should've been a opener, a band like Gamma Ray or something would be an amazing band to open for Manowar and made the 100 bucks worth it in my opinion. |
| _________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 10:28pm - KEVORD ""] Thanks for the insight Spence. |
| _________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 10:29pm - Spence ""] Don't you agree though? A band like Gamma Ray or something would've been fucking phenomenal. I don't know why Manowar think people would pay so much to see them. |
| _________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 10:32pm - KEVORD ""] I do agree. They needed an opening act. When Immortal opened for them a few years ago it was awesome. They should have at least played a three song encore. |
| _______________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 10:32pm - the_reverend ""] I highly doubt there were only 300 people there. If there were 300 people, the place would look like a ghost town. heck, 700 downstairs looks like no one is there. |
| _________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 10:36pm - KEVORD ""] It looked like no one was there. There is no Way there was even 500 people there. |
| _________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 11:13pm - Spence ""] Perhaps people were in the balcony? Because sometimes a few hundred people can be up there and be forgotten about. |
| _________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 11:20pm - KEVORD ""] There was no balcony. |
| _________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 11:32pm - Burnsy ""] Surprising that more people didn't dish out the dough. |
| __________________________________________ [Nov 23,2012 11:54pm - BobNOMAAMRooney ""] Shit I overslept and missed this show! Goodbye $75 |
| ________________________________________ [Nov 24,2012 1:56am - Josh Cunt nli ""] if you werent at Manowar/Immortal ten years ago = poseur |
| ________________________________ [Nov 24,2012 7:07am - KEVORD ""] Glad I'm not a poser then. You should have said Manowar at club 125 in Haverhill. |
| __________________________________ [Nov 24,2012 7:35am - chrisREX ""] I wish every metal concert could sound that heavy. Should of played longer. Joey's speech was worth it. |

| ________________________________ [Nov 24,2012 2:15pm - Spence ""] http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/manowar/2012...alladium-worcester-ma-1bdacd90.html Would have been awesome to see Fighting the World and Sons of Odin live, since they didn't play either last year, but that aside? Eh, kind of glad I didn't spend the money. What did Joey rant about this time? |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 24,2012 3:26pm - goatcatalyst ""] Glad it was empty. Fuck off nowadays Manowar and your retarded ticket prices. NOT WELCOME! [img] |
| ___________________________________ [Nov 26,2012 11:26am - robotpie ""] I remember last time they came around, Joey gave a huge speech about Manowar merch, and the superior quality of Manowar merch compared to other bands merch, and how when people saw you in a Manowar shirt, they just knew you were smart for making good investments. As awesome as the show was, I kinda wanted to return my shirt after his merch speech. Wish I could have afforded to go see them again, none the less. |
