Wrecking Crew! They need to bring back Deny The Cross!

[ravenheart]

Fucking outstanding show by all four bands. Would have liked the Overkill set to have been changed a bit more. Really could have done without Rotten To The Core, Hello From The Gutter and one or two of the others for the third time in a row, but very happy with Battle, Gasoline Dream, Bare Bones and the return of Necroshine.

It's refreshing to hear someone else tired of Rotten to the Core. I'd rather hear that as part of a medley than the full song or worse yet the 7 min sing-a-long version.

With how many great songs Overkill has they really should mix it up more. I was just listening to Shred and forgot how much I liked that song

Overkill have tons and tons of songs in their overall catalog they can include in the set list. I've seen Overkill four times and granted, they have taken out some of their staples such as Rotton and Hello. But, because this is not only a tour to support Ironbound. It's also of what many hard rockers and metal heads are calling it a, "25th anniversary tour." So, that's why the staples are where they are in the Ironbound setlist. But, I would love to see Raise the Dead, Electro-Violence, Genocya, or I Rise dusted off and played live. But, as long as they keep Bare Bones and Feel the Fire. I'll be a happy neck wrecker. Oh, and ravenheart. Is there any new merch being sold this time around I should keep an eye out for when I see them May 1st at Nokia?

[ravenheart]

There is new merch, but it was all but sold out. Only one or two sizes left in everything.

Of course, they'll have a different tour shirt for your tour.

Oh, sweet. Well could you possibly describe for me any of the new tour merch I should keep an eye out for?

Bare Bones is weak sauce, Rotten to The Core is a classic. Though if I had to pick one song from Feel The Fire to hear live, it would be the title track.
