Concert review (sort of)

This past Saturday I went to a Heavy Metal show at the Starline. My first... at least that I can remember. I went alone. I know what you're thinking..."You went to a heavy metal show alone!?" None of my friends would go with me, but I really wanted to see a few of Fresno's finest local bands. The local bands I've seen and love are Subdue and Down Word. Another local band Euphoria whom I have not seen was the first to go on. I was really impressed with them. I would definitely like to see them again. When I was told about them, they were compared to Nirvana. I didn't really see the comparison because I thought Euphoria was a lot harder sounding. Down Word came on next. They had a few technical difficulties but they are really fun to watch! They are really a band to watch out for and big things are coming from them! A Band of Orcs was up next. I was really intimated by this band. They are a band thats dressed in full "Orc" regalia. I am not one who likes to be scared and anyone who knows me, knows this. I basically played on my phone while they preformed (sorry) but I was able to hear the music. A little too hard for my liking. Subdue came on next and was awesome. Finally Mary Magdalan came on. They were the headliner. Again they were a little too heavy for my taste, but I really liked that they had a DJ instead of a drummer. The show they put on was worth the wait til end. Over all I had an awesome time checking out these bands and supporting the ones I've seen.
