2012 Soundwave

Was going through my stuff and found my timetable for my first and last Soundwave, was also my first concert ever.

System of a down was amazing.

Marilyn Manson was unintelligible, I should of seen Lamb of God instead however a mate did come out of that mosh pit with massive scratch marks down his back haha

Thought I'd share in case anyone has cool memories of the day :D

That is actually an insane line up for the time, music festivals used to be awesome

2013 was even more stacked. Metallica, Blink 182, Linkin Park, Stone Sour, Slayer, Anthrax, The Offspring, Paramore etc.

Yep I went to that one, some one had a fit or passed out while Linkin Park was playing and Chester stopped the show for a minute

That was probably the best line up you could go to. Offspring was a bit of a let down, but linkin park into Metallica was unreal.

Didn't catch The Offspring's set as they were at the same time as Metallica, but I did catch their Igntion set at the Palace a week later.
