    yeah, they played a couple of song from the new albums and then it was into the old stuff.

    I want more........

    We were that close to the stage i could almost have touched em. being that close, you don't just hear the music, you feel it, you live it

    after the show the missus said "James looked straight at you a few times!!!" i'm 6ft 6" so stand head and shoulders above most other people YEAHHHHH unfortunately a few idiots behind me didn't appreciated the lack of view which lead so some argybargy.

    Absolutely stoked. next time i'm gonna take my oldest boy as well as he is a big fan too but at 12 was possibly a bit young this time around

    I went to the Sydney show on Sept 18th. I agree, it was a totally awesome show. Only played about 4 new songs I think.

    So you reckon they have still got what it takes? I've always wondered what James' voice would be like now, I've heard a few live recordings where it sounds like his voice has gone, did he belt out some good notes?

    Definitely still got it. to be honest i was suprised by the clarity of the vocals considering the volume and the relative distance to the speakers. there was enough bass to vibrate though my chest every time lars went for gold on the kick drums. i guess it also comes down to the guy in the mixing desk. the 3 warm up acts didn't sound anywhere as good, not even Fear Factory who are a fairly big band in there own right
