Kamelot

The Kamelot concert in Zoetermeer was totally sold out and because my guildies were too late to get a ticket, it was just me again with all my invisible friends...

When I arrived, there was actually a loooooong line of people waiting and with a bit of luck I found a spot to park my car and went to stand in line. I have been to this place once before, although it was 3 years ago or so and it was way less crowded than it was now.

First band up was Fairyland. I didn't know them and I was waiting to get in so I only saw 3 of their songs, but it sounded ok [ie gonna download some ;) ]

Next was Leave's Eyes. Ever since Liv Kristine left Theatre of Tragedy, I've been following her progress from time. When they played Elegy I got goosebumps [ I guess that's my (un)conscious liking of a song ]

Kamelot started playing at 22:40 [pretty late for the main act, ne? ]
At that time, it was really getting hot in there because it was still packed with people... Kamelot played some songs from the Fourth Legacy, Karma, Epica, The Black Halo and from the upcoming album "Ghost Opera". They also played some songs that they never played live, so that was kinda cool :)
I don't think they had the duration of the concert perfected yet because it was finished at 0:20 [this was the first show from the new tour :) ]

I must be getting old cause the whole evening I could feel my lower back hurting and my legs were sooooo tired... I was glad to be in my car again so I could sit down and listen to Anna Tsuchiya. Later, when I was driving, I thought I could've listened to the promo single [from Kamelot] that I got when I left the concert, but I'm doing that now, so at least I've listened to it :)

Really tired now and only have 3 hours and 30 minutes to sleep...
