Heading out to the Witchcraft show tonight (w/Graveyard opening up), I'll try to stay sober enough to post a review later.

Have fun and be safe. No "beer goggle" moments allowed!! Have a buddy there to protect you.

Okay, I made it home safely (thank you public transportation). All I'll say at this point is that Witchcraft is the REAL DEAL!!!!!!

More tomorrow once I sleep this off....

Seeing a band live is usually the final
indicator on how I ultimately judge them, so I was a bit apprehensive
at first about my first Witchcraft gig, not being sure if they could
capture the vibe of their records.

I was stupid to be apprehensive...

These
guys SHOULD be heard live, they are just flat out AMAZING. One of those
groups that just casts a spell (no pun intended) the instant they hit
the stage, they owned the crowd 30 seconds into their first song. There
is an effortless groove at work, Magnus Pelander is great frontman and
you can tell these guys are just having a great time playing live.
Every song was better in it's live incarnation than on the studio
albums, these cats are REAL.

I expect big things from them in the future.

(p.s.
- Graveyard was pretty damn good too, but paled in comparison, give
them a couple more years though and they'll be impressive).

Wasn't Clutch playing, too? Or am I thinking of a different show? I thought another band was playing.

If the Clutch show is heading to DFW, I'm going.
