| ____________________________________ [Mar 7,2005 2:23pm - wakeoftears ""] But Manowar kills. |
| _________________________________________ [Mar 7,2005 2:28pm - thegreatspaldino ""] Manowar's bassist is really fucking talented... but they are so far beyond gay that ... they are just really gay. Rhapsody will fucking RUIN everything. |
| ______________________________ [Mar 7,2005 2:29pm - dan. ""] HOLY SHIT. i just read up there someone mention running wild. running wild and manowar would be the greatest thing thats ever happened. they have a new album - it probably could have happened. although im sure running wild doesnt want to open for manowar. rhapsody is alrite..but their gonna sound like shit compared to manowar. fucking badass. |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 7,2005 2:41pm - Josh_Martin ""] Why can't they book Manowar with a good band like Immortal again? That was a perfect combo. |

| ______________________________________ [Jun 19,2005 2:28am - the_reverend ""] I just got back from this show. w00T |
| _____________________________________ [Jun 19,2005 3:37am - MetalStorm ""] Yea, that was definatly an amazing show. Say what you wanta bout the old Manowar picutres and Rhapsody, but they fuckin rocked! And I got a welt on my head to prove it! |

| ____________________________________ [Jun 19,2005 12:27pm - SUBJUGATE ""] Sat 6/18 Manowar / Rhapsody (first ever U.S. Tour) Holyhell @ The Palladium Worcester MA |
| ___________________________________ [Jun 19,2005 2:29pm - Al_Ravage ""] Holy Hell - they were OK, their choices of covers couldn't have been lamer though, should have just stuck to orignals and laid off the Andrew Loyd Webber Rhapsody - they were decent. I like some of their songs and they pulled them off well... the stuff I didn't like about them also showed (too much balladry... FAR FAR too many intros) and they had pointless and mediocre-at-best bass and drum solos in a short set...should have just played more songs Manowar was Manowar...played lots of stuff from Louder Than Hell...played Hail and Kill...a little bit of a short set overall though... with the standard hilarious Joey Demaio rant at the end good time had by all |
| _______________________________ [Jun 19,2005 2:36pm - moran ""] Hail and Kill was the absolute best thing I have ever seen live. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 19,2005 2:37pm - alisterfiend ""] this show was fucking great....its too bad the sound at the palladium is so wretched, it would have been a lot better.....did anyone else see a striking resemblance between the bass player of rhapsody and Dio? |
| ____________________________________________________________ [Jun 19,2005 4:27pm - Spaldino on a fucking mac... lame ""] the rhapsody bassist is awesome |
| __________________________________ [Jun 19,2005 4:38pm - malettey ""] holy hell kinda sucked....i didn't care much for them, plus their guitar player and keyboard player were wearing sunglasses indoors. and i think eric adams's surprise appearance was kinda lame. the only good things about holy hell was that their set was short and their singer was hot. rhapsody was awesome, great performance by them. the only problem i had with them was that there were too many solos, that time could have been used to play more songs. other than that, they were great! manowar was really awesome to watch as well, and loud as fuck! like rhapsody, there was too much soloing from the guitarist and bass player, even though they play very well, they could have played more songs with that time. also, joey demaio's speech at the end all about "true" metal and fighting for everything was pretty corny but funny at the same time. all in all, i had a good time, it was a fun show. i'm glad i went, but i was angry to come home at 3:00 a.m. and have to get up at 6:00 to go to work! |
| ________________________________ [Jun 19,2005 5:50pm - dan. ""] i had alot of fun...good times, good people..great show. missed holy hell...sounds like i should be glad! rhapsody were fun as shit. i was really into their show. i dont know too much of their music beyond one album...but they definetly kept my attention. sweet bass solo! the drum solo might have been good, uhh no clue because i couldnt hear it. fuck the palladium. manowar were great - i was slightly disapointed. they didnt play enough songs but that was to be expected. also, NOT ENOUGH 10 MINUTE SOLOS <-- (denotes sarcasm). really missed not hearing violence and bloodshed. maybe next time. but it was fun as fuck - worth every penny! |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 19,2005 5:51pm - BestialOnslaught ""] I had a blast, despite the shoddy MANOWAR setlist... Way too much focus on the last 2 albums. Didn't see the other bands, Heavy Metal Parking Lot was in effect! |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 19,2005 7:23pm - the_reverend ""] rhapsody: the sound there for them was awesome. I sat upstairs with lynne for a while and watched it. they played really well and sounded almost exactly like the CDs. and why? well, you could tell that a lot of the set was pre-recorded unfortunately. from the samples, intros, outtros, and a lot of the synth work. they had a really good stage show even though they kept leaving the stage for no real reason only to come back a second later. they did this like 20 times. at one point, they had a girl in a wedding dress, bathed in blue light and holding a flashing ball. oh, and i thought the bassist was awesome. the bass solos sounded good. I saw a pit during their set. weird... Man o War: I walked through while they were doing a ballad song. if there is anything I had it's their ballads. I left the room to watch the end of hate eternal. when I came back it was just in time for "gods made heavymetal". a song that I find hilarious to quote... they only played like one song after that with a lot of stage stuff. Joey D. was up on a platform cause he's short. before their encore, he did do a wicked bad rant. let me sumarize (cause it was hilarious) "an interviewer asking me 'what kind of person goes to see man-o-war'. I knew right then that this was an asshole and I would never do another interview ever again. I told him 'blahblah people that had a hard life blah blah'... so when ever I see someone wearing a man-o-war shirt, it's them saying 'FUCK YOU' If people say shit about this metal town of WORCESTER, I say 'FUCK YOU' We brought a semi full of gear in here to put a PA in this shit hole, FOR YOU! We brough 4 tour buses, FOR YOU!" that was it.. sort of full of contradictions I would say... since I didn't get to use the tour buses. also, no one said 'FUCK YOU' to him when he called the palladium a 'shit hole'. Their set was rediculously short. was that even an hour? |

| __________________________________________ [Jun 19,2005 7:54pm - BestialOnslaught ""] They did 13 songs and 2 solos, so yeah, that was about 75-80 minutes... Why can't they do 180 here like in Europe? |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 19,2005 9:24pm - the_reverend ""] cause this isn't europe? they sold out or close to sold out the downstairs. this is by far the largest palladium crowd that I've seen them once or twice at the palladium and the crowd wasn't that big those times. also, they played haverhill 2 years ago for ~200 people. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 20,2005 1:22pm - swamplorddvm ""] GOOD FUCKING HELL! What a show! LOUD as Nile and Rhapsody kicked ass. Then I got to meet one of the dudes from Krisiun. That was cool. |

| ___________________________________ [Jun 20,2005 7:29pm - Al_Ravage ""] There was this little drunken lady behind me wailing with this accursed scream "Play 'blood of my enemies'...you assholes better fuckin' play blood of my FUCKIN' ENEMIES! BLOOD OF...gaaah!" she didn't get her wish though |
