Recap by The Metal Wulf;
So, Finger Lakes Metal Fest is over and done for yet another year. Personally, I kinda compare it to Christmas. There's weeks of building excitement, to the point that you can't sleep the night before the event, and then when the day gets here, it seems to go way too fast.
And yet, at the end of the day, no matter how much fun it was, you're still kinda glad it only comes once a year!
Note to self: Next year, plan on taking the day AFTER Metal Fest off...
Bearing all that in mind , we were more than happy to once again have Spater's David Henninger in the studio to help us share some fun Metal Fest memories. Oddly, with all the great bands that were set to perform, attendance seemed to be down a bit from previous years. But, those who DID attend were a bit louder than attendees from last year, so maybe quantity was less important than enthusiasm...Hmmmm...
In all honesty, we all had a blast, and it's always an honor when David asks us to host, which we WILL be doing again, when it all rolls around next year!
No Azkath and crew this week, as he was tending to one of his Last Exit Prestents shows in Ithaca, making for a relatively quiet evening. Not lacking for some silly momemtns, though, as we had to make sure that Josh's intervention from the previous week didn't leave any lasting damage. All depends on where your focus was that night...some things were definitely less scarring than others...
Damn you, Kal...
There was also a return discussion of the origins of what some perceive to be my lame taste in music. Hey, I wasn't exposed to Black Sabbath at the age of five, like Joe was! I grew up in a pre-dominaantly country and old-time rock-and roll-loving family! I grew up more on Buddy Holly, Elvis, Johnny Cash, and Merle Haggard...
And things DID change when my dad brought home Deep Purple's Machine Head! Not to mention discovering KISS within a year or so of that!
I swear, I don't remember EVER asking for those Abba albums for Christmas...
