the concert was sonic. was really impressed with the opening band Dead Letter Circus. Chevelle followed, playing a couple of new songs, but it was their old ones that really did it for me (Send the pain below, forfeit, comfortable liar, the red, vitamin a). i couldn't stop thinking about 4th year high school when i saw them up there. it's funny how prior to the concert it felt unreal knowing that i was going to see Chevelle play live, right in front of me; but when i was actually in that moment, it didn't feel at all unreal. sure it was great, but it didn't feel as novel as i thought it would...i guess that's what globalisation does to you. (?)
The Butterfly Effect, the headlining act, was pretty good. i mean, it's not so much their brand of music, it was more their energy and the lighting that did it for me. you could really tell by the crowd reaction Australia's real proud of these 'blokes'.
Only a few shots here. the mosh pit grew unbearable.

Delay Junkie on a Telecaster
Perry Farrell-esque

I miss playing in a band. This sucks.
