It was inevitable! This landed today in my mailbox:

Poor GAMMARAY just didn’t get a chance on this one! First Mao Live is closed down then the Gov’t decided on a celebration day for earthquake victims with a cancellation of all events… The band and the venue tried moving the show to Midnight but that was way too much to ask!
I feel for the band, the fans and for my good friends at Guitar China who have been trying to clean up this mess since last week.

For Those About To Rock, We Salute You

The German Metalheads, GAMMARAY, see their show moved from Mao Live to Yugong Yishan in light of recent events mentioned below. Due to 4/21/2010 being declared the memorial day for Yushu victims, the show is scheduled to start at midnight! This will undoubtedly be a very intimate performance considering the venue and the time so worth a trip to Zhangzizhonglu for any Power Metal Fans.

I can’t say i heard of them much before but i just listened to a few songs on their Myspace page and they’re pretty darn good! Actually, this is my kind of Metal, much more so than Lamb of God.

I’ll probably be heading over there right after the Memorial Concert at Mako which will be a fundraiser for Yushu.. I love how it worked out and i can catch both shows!
