The concert last night was incredible. It was my second concert I've seen so I took my brother Christian, and popped his concert cherry. This was the very first time that Blind Guardian and Leaves Eyes played in Houston. It was truly a show to remember.
The opening band, Leaves Eyes were from Finland or something. But they know how to f**king rock! Their female lead singer was amazing. Her voice was quite good. The other singer singed in a death-metal type voice and had hair down to his ass. f**kin crazy. Their guitarists were also incredible. Both i believe were using ESP Guitars, a very good brand of guitars. Their songs were both heavy and melodic. The female singer whould sing in a lovely voice as the male singer growled on. At one point the male singer went up the crowd, thrusting his microphone and hugging fans. Thair bass player was f**king crazy because he played by slapping his hand on the strings to make that badass sound.
Blind Guardian. Simply Amazing. They started off with a song from their first cd i belive. I can't really remember what songs they played except for Fly, The Bards Song (yes i sang along), Imaginations From The Other Side, Time Stands Still, Valhalla. Their show was simply amazing. I cant even begin to tell you how good it was. As always Hansi's voice did not dissapoint. Their guitarists were also just as amazing. Andre and Marcus both played their heart out. f**kin Awesome. Frederik's drumwork was just as badass.
When they were done and walked off people started chanting. "Guardian!, Guardian!, Guardian!, GUARDIAN!!!" and Blind Guardian again took the stage for 3 more kickass songs. When they were done they started throwing stuff. Christian almost caught a drumstick. The bass player threw a bottle of water which i cought and drank. The guitarists threw their pics but I didnt get one Oh Well. It was an amazing show, and both bands were f**king kickass.
