Kinda late posting here but I was at the Stockholm show this Wednesday it was fuckin' awesome! Twisted Evil

The setlist was the exact same as on the earlier European gigs but I had such a great time even though the set could've been longer and had more of my fav songs...

But the sound was fuckin' awesome though I intentionally placed myself more on the left side of the stage to see Jon better and sometimes Troy's solos were a bit drowned in Jon's brutal riffing. Laughing

The band's performance was also tight as usual and Matt really nailed Ten Thousand Strong.

The only bad thing I have to say about the whole gig was some of the asshole 13-year-old (or what looked like that anyways) Saxon fans that invaded most of the front row while us adults were still having a few beers and waiting for IE to start playing... The cunts started shouting shit like "We want Saxon" even as IE was entering the stage and didn't even bother to cheer for the band at all between songs or anything. What the fuck is that shit about?! Mad

Iced Earth should be playing after the wash-ups of Saxon anyways...

Here's a few shitty cellphone pics for y'all

And a video someone else had recorded of Dracula:

Yesterday's gig in Hungary was great! Me and my brother managed to get into the first row pretty soon into the gig and it was a great experience. The setlist was the usual, plus they played 'The Hunter' before the last song! It wasn't even on the setlist paper. The only disappointing thing about it, was that they played only one (well two, with in sacred flames) song from the new album. I've got nothing against the song 'Iced Earth', but seriously, 'Come What May' would be a perfect ending to the gig, don't they realize it? Smile

Cheers!

from the official IE fanclub:

Jon from Zurich!

I hope this update finds you well. I’m in Zurich, Switzerland right now enjoying a day off as we near the end of the European tour. We’ve had a great time with the guys in Saxon and the shows have been well received. We played Warsaw, Poland and Zagreb, Croatia for the first time, which was great. The Croatian fans rivaled the Greeks with their passion and intensity. We will definitely be coming back at some point in the future.

Cool
