METAL LIVE: Knotfest 2017


Location: Glen Helen Amphitheater, San Bernardino, CÅ

Ticket: $72.25 (sit ticket plus tax and fee)

I was not very excited about the Knotfest this year. Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson are not even metal bands for playing Knotfest. I guess the metal business is not going well in America currently so they have to invited some popular rock bands to the metal fest. I still liked Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson when I was much younger. So it's a good teenage memory to saw them. The best shows would be Testament, The Black Dahlia Murder, Death Angel and Exhumed!

It's my second time saw Exhumed live. It's pretty fun. And the guitarist wore a cat shirt which was really cute for playing in a metal band. Anyone loves cats!

The guitarists were so amazing. I really enjoyed their solos. Guitar solos in thrash metal bands are my favorite. Vocal Mark Osegueda is a really tiny man but with a super powerful voice! His voice is so sharpe, it's classic!

I'm not a fan of Goatwhore. I love thrash metal, but I don't really like when black metal and thrash metal come together. Their concert was fun though. That's my friend's beer, I don't drink any alcohol.

It's my second time saw The Black Dahlia Murder's concert. It's always fun!

Testament always has an amazing concert! I love the guitar solos so much! It's my second time saw their concert. I will down to more of their concerts! That's one of my favorite thrash metal bands ever!

I only know one song from Stonesour. I don't really like them.

Marilyn Manson's performance was really disappointing. I understand his legs got injured during the concert in September. The stage decorations fell on his whole body. He had to cancel some of his concerts. He was siting on the wheelchair most time with a nurse protected him on the stage. I was tired of him complaining about his legs on each song. Being negative doesn't help his legs at all. He didn't performed The Beautiful People well either. I hope he can recover soon, but I will never go to his concert anymore.

Rob Zombie's performance was really entertaining. It's like a industrial disco concert. He has so much energy being an old guy. I was very impressive.

 Who Am I ? 

 

I'm Sophie. There is a nerdy metalhead inside of me although I don't look like it. I don't like to drink, smoke or put makeup on to try to impress people. I love loud music and I have a huge passion for METAL.

When I was 18, I was interested in making websites. Therefore, I made a personal metal website called DyingLight that existed for 4 years. I putted many things related with METAL on the site. Right now, I changed DyingLight as a personal metal blog to record my favorite metal bands, metal lives and metal festivals I went, my metal collections and my old DyingLight stuff.
