Went to see a couple of tribute bands last night. Don't know about you guys, but I see a lot of shows by tribute bands coming around, often bringing in more people than original bands.
So there was "King Fate", a King Diamond/Mercyful Fate tribute. The singer sounded almost exactly like King. Lots of classics played. Then there was "Decade of Aggression", a Slayer tribute. I was surprised that they started with "Repentless". Here too, lots of classics. The singer doesn't quite sound like Araya, but he delivered the goods anyway.

Sorcerer and Blind Guardian tonight.
Only seven songs for Sorcerer but they were heavy as fuck and delivered. Those two guitarists are great, and so is the singer.
First time seeing Blind Guardian and it was more or less a hit parade with some added songs from God Machine. Great to hear Imaginations, Nightfall, Bard's Song, Into the Storm, Traveler in Time and Mirror Mirror. I only really missed Bright Eyes and Majesty. Hansi sounded OK, but I think he eroded an entire octave away with all his falsettos the last 40 years. The upper range was really almost growly. But it worked out well, he's a great frontman.
