    Was there as well, unfortunately in the * seats.

    But the energy was insane, the floor was bouncing and the pits looked incredible.
    The music form LB was superb.

    But the less said about the "host" and most of the support, the better
    Ecca vandal impressed me, the test was terrible.

    Yeah the energy was incredible mate!!

    I got tickets in that seating section right on the floor so got a great view. I was down for the Hibs game and had booked the hotel and everything based on them playing the game on the Saturday but then they changed it to Sunday obviously so I looked up what else was on for the Saturday so it worked out really well.

    I only went in at 8:45 because usually the main band comes on at 9 so only caught the last support but didn’t like them at all, just not my thing. I spoke to a guy at the hotel on Sunday and he said the exact same as you that Ecca was the only decent one. Couldn’t believe LB only came on at 9:45, that’s the only thing that let it down was the length of the set was just a bit short at 1hr 15 but they were incredible

    The host was a pain in the * mate, i know that’s part of the act to drag it out a bit but it felt like there was genuinely an issue causing a delay with how long he went on for.

    LB really exceeded my expectations though, I thought they would be good but they blew me away tbh.

    Most I’ve been to was 136 in one year and about 90 of them was in London, mostly metal gigs. That was about 28 years ago.
    Favourite gig though was Wacken festival in 2013
