[show #87] This tour had the potential to be one of the biggest and best that I've ever been to--but it had the exact opposite effect. First off, the show was supposed to start at 7pm, we arrived at 6pm just intime to catch the end of Nevermore's set. Then, instead of having a second stage, or a rotating stage, they split the tour up between the Civic Center and State Theatre. All the sets were way too short at both venues. I didn't really care for Dillinger Escape Plan. Fear Factory's set was waaay too short, they deserve more respect than that. I was looking forward to them the most. I was surprised that I liked Dream Theatre, but they're songs are way too long and drawn out. We had to skip Megadeth cause we were told that the State Theatre shows start at 9pm, we got there expecting to miss part of Boba Flex, turns out we were early cause it didn't start until 10:15. So we missed all of Megadeth for nothing. But I did get to talk to one of the singers of Boba Flex. In short, Boba Flex, Dry Kill Logic, and Life of Agony were all great except the sound really sucked. Too loud, even for me. Didn't care for Symphony X but the music was cool I did run into Rusty and Steve which was cool to see them again. I expected better of this tour.
