Man, what a day! Went to No Sleep Til Perth yesterday. It was insane! Really good crowd, albeit a mixed genres one. Metalheads and Punkers as well as your usual blow ins who dont really fit into either mold. It was incredible. I was there for 2 bands... GWAR and Megadeth.

Front row, on the rails and right in the middle is where I stood for GWAR. Now if you know anything about these guys, you know that if you stand there, you WILL walk out covered in fake semen, blood, pus, bile and spew. Needless to say, I looked like I had just taken a swim in a coloured pool. It was awesome fun, and those guys put on a great stage show. 16 years I have waited for this, and they have never been to Australia in their 25 year career.

It was my 3rd time seeing Megadeth, and they played better than ever, especially with Dave Ellefson back on bass. Words cant describe.

check out GWAR video from someone in the pit - he was just behind me and to the right, from what I can tell. You can see my hand doing the horns a fair bit in it (or at least I think its mine).

 
WAY more intense and disgusting than Rammstein, and the fact that GWAR have been around for 25 years. Gor Gor (that big dinosaur) was a highlight, as was being spermed in the mouth (full blown gob shot) while Oderus (the singer/spermer) smiled cheekily at me. Ridiculous and childish I know, but they are just so much fun. If you like metal/rock and want to see something different, and something that you are very very unlikely to ever have a chance to see again, I suggest strongly that you go to No Sleep Til in your city. As I said, GWAR have been around for 25 years, 12 or so albums and this is their first trip to Aus. I actually never thought they would ever come, so I just never put them on my "must see" bands list because of that reason. After I see Slash in March, I have officially completed said list...

Pantera
Megadeth (3 times)
Metallica
Slayer (twice)
Iron Maiden
Morbid Angel
Carcass
