I was so stoked for Mayhem Fest and I’m so glad it didn’t rain on 08.08.08, unlike every single days of the weeks.
Mayhem fest was a blast. Dragonforce was very entertaining and Slipknot was absolutely mind-blowing! I love their new masks, and their new promo single “Psychosocial” is so dope. So happy that I got to see 2 of my favourite bands :D
I just couldn’t wait to shoot Protest the Hero, Anberlin, Every Time I Die, Gym Class Heroes, and all the other kickass bands. But then, it started to suck, because the weather was awfully hot for the first few hours, which I guess was OK. After that, it got cloudy and the temperature cooled down which was really good. Then, out of nowhere, it started to rain…heavily - like it was gonna flood. So I had to leave after Every Time I Die because the rain was absolutely unbearable and I didn’t want to get my gears wet. Which seriously sucks because I couldn’t get any shots of any bands after ETID :(
I never thought that I’d have the chance to photograph one of the biggest event in Toronto. When I found out that Linkin Park, Sam Roberts and The Bravery would be there, I started throwing, breaking and smashing stuffs because I was so happy! Nah, I’m kidding, I was just really happy.
If the temperature was a bit under 25′c and if there was not that much rain, I think the concert would have simply been more awesome.
Last night I went to check out Azriel’s Curse. It was suppose to be a big show at the Kathedral, but 3 bands didn’t show up and the show ended up finishing at 9pm. But Azriel’s Curse were definitely rockin though.
Here’s a few shot of Dame at Downsview Park. If you have no idea who are Dame, then you need to get off your couch, turn off your wide screen tv and get out.
Last night I went to see my friends from The Porcelain Effect at Kathedral in Toronto, then hopped to Horseshoe Tavern which is just a few block away, where Hail The Villain were playing. I was so stoked to see them playing again, and this show was actually even better than the one they played in Brampton last time. The participating of the audience made them looked even better which was absolutely amazing! And you could tell that most people who were there, were simply to see Hail The Villain. :) 
Here’s a few shots that I took of that kickass band called The Bled from Take Action Tour 08, March 19, 2008.
Here are some shots of August Burns Red, from Take Action Tour 08, which I went to last Wednesday, March 19th. I really loved them. Of course, when August Burns Red is one of your favourite bands you gotta love em.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t get any shot of the entire band since the lighting was pretty bad.
Friday night I went to see my friends from Night Life at The HorseShoe Tavern. Their tracks were totally different from what I usually listen to, but change else is always good. I really loved the signature song “Hey Jude”. That one got the crowd pumped and got them off their chairs, got me pumped too.
Last night I attended Take Action Tour and that show was totally insane! I’m so glad that I got to see one of my favourite bands, August Burns Red. I never heard of The Human Abstract, From First To Last or even Every Time I Die, but those guys totally blew me away! And the best part is that Every Time I Die was headlining and all the entire crowd decided to race to the stage. It’s like the bouncers were not even there.
