Holy Grail/ Strong Intention/ Area 52 @ Metro Gallery 7/1/2013

I went with John and Kate to see HOLY GRAIL ($10) up at the Metro Gallery (never been there before). There were a TON of people... that I knew there. Outside the venue, met up with Lindsey (who was going to another show), and met Dorothy, the Day Drinkers and Dogs (Dan, Robin, Erich n Eric) Jen P, Bridget, and Zach (Strong Intention- finally got to see them!)! So 11 (including myself) of the about 50 people there I knew. 1/5 of the crowd. That's madness!

Anthrax/ Exodus/ Municipal Waste/ Shadows Fall/ Holy Grail @ Fillmore, Silver Spring 4/14/2013

Went to see Anthrax/ Exodus/ Municipal Waste/ Shadows Fall/ Holy Grail @ Fillmore, Silver Spring. This was their 'Among the Living' tour where they played that album in its entirety. They actually ended up playing it with some interludes, but still the whole thing. This was a really big show and I saw a TON of people there- Ruby, Lindsey, Sarah, Dorothy, Ariel and his buddy, Neil and Michelle, the two Latino guys from various black metal shows, Dan P, Matt R, Marie, Cab Ride Home (Chris) guy, and pretty sure someone from work who may have recognized me but we didn't talk to each other (AWKWARD), DC Heavy Metal Chris,and Zach who books some great shows in the area! And the Chicken suit guy!
