have to disagree
but shouty/screamy metal bands aren't really my thing

although Slayer are going to be awesome.

I consider them more 'groove metal'
And not as shouty-screamy as a lot of metal bands.

last year was full of shouty/screamy
which wasn't my bag. too much constant guitar and drums going on, and not melodic enough.

Which is why Alice in Chains stood out so much as being incredibly awesome.

which I'm kicking myself about

It was raining quite hard
at that point I think. They were quite good though (and possibly that was their last UK gig.)

Same with Avenged Sevenfold. Not my favourite band by any measure, but I'm glad I watched them since that was their final UK gig (where they're all alive anyway)

the rain might've been it
and the call to spliffs :-)

perhaps not
but I don't think they're that accomplished really. Definitely not enough so to be throwing hissy fits
