Obscura:

Anticosmic Overload
Ocean Gateways
Incarnated
Vortex Omnivium
Centric Flow

I wish they played longer because they were by far the best band of the night. They said they will be back next year.

Awesome Obscura set. Kinda disappointed by Dev's. Not to say the songs aren't badass, but he's been a lot of those songs since he got back into touring. I could never complain as July 5th will be my first time seeing/meeting my god. And RVP, who is a badass drummer and a cool guy.

All I case about is being in the front for Obscura and Devin Townsend, most likely the rest of the time, unless the crowd is big enough I'll be in the front for Septic Flesh, and by the merch tables for COB.

No problem, and thanks for the video! That was my favorite part of their set.

I'm bummed that I had to miss those openers, but I didn't really feel like driving out to LA to see the only bands I care about play short sets. Had there been a different headliner I wouldn't have thought twice about going to this.

I hear you. I bought my (overpriced) ticket a while ago, and I would have liked to see the show then, but I'm not particularly stoked on any of the bands right now. Hopefully it'll be better come show time. I hate having to buy tickets so far in advance but shows sell out pretty quickly up here. Haven't seen Bodom headlining yet though, so it should be cool.

Bastards never play "Are You Dead Yet?" or "Hatecrew Deathroll" when I've seen them

Pretty cool set by Devin. Supercrush is probably the best song off of Addicted.

I'm ok with all the sets. Septicflesh is what I imagined it would be, but I'm bummed there's nothing from Sumerian Daemons in there. Virtues of the Beast is incredible live.

As for the DTP set, By Your Command and Stand are both 9 minutes long, so he gets to play for a decent amount. I am suprised that he's playing Stand, though, I figured he would've picked Juular and Sumeria to play off of Deconstruction. Other than the Deconstruction songs it's the same set he's had for a year or so now, which is fine by me because I haven't seen him yet.

The Bodom set is a little heavy on the new stuff, but the songs from Relentless Reckless Forever they're playing aren't that bad. They just need more stuff off the first couple albums, but oh well, I don't really care about them anymore. I'm sure they'll put on a good show though.

Looking forward to this show.

honestly I thought he would put in Poltergiest(sp) from Deconstruction. It's shorter, and is heavy (probably the most similar to SYL as well).
