Haha, I've spotted flashes of my insane headbanging at the front of the crowd too. Yeah, it's a good DVD, their best yet I think. I haven't watched the bonus stuff properly yet though.

all in all, an epic weekend. picnic in the park for my friend's birthday followed by celebratory gig. Got in for free, 2 band's did covers of Rebecca Black "Friday" and had a good chuckle at all the people who were at the Big Fat Gypsy/Jersey Shore night upstairs out in the smoking area. One of them looked like Rutger Hauer and her mate looked like Dee Snider :lol:

The after-party was good, involved lots of drink (though most of my whiskey was stolen, to be repaid in free drink next time Phil The Epic Barman is on at a gig), dancing to David Bowie and painting the living room. Woke up late, went home for a quick shower and a munch, then sunbathing in the park with an ice cream til it was time for Darkest Era. Best local gig ever by a country mile.

What an odd coincidence. I'm also not currently being ripped off
