Rock Vegas was a BLAST!<\/p>\n

Today marks one week from when we left Atlanta for Las Vegas. Our trip was amazing! I really miss it, but in a bittersweet way. It was relaxing, yet stressful, but rewarding. Why? It was SO H-O-T outside in Vegas. The first part of the concert was a free festival area, one stage with bands starting at around 1:30pm. The first band each day was a local band announced that day. Then there were 3 or 4 other bands with time slots following.<\/p>\n

Attika 7 was on Friday<\/p>\n

Attika 7 was good.<\/p>\n

September Mourning was on Saturday<\/p>\n

September Mourning was awesome! I love Alt-Metal, SM is very fantasy oriented, and were the only band with female, in this case the lead singer.<\/p>\n

There was something familiar about the group plaguing my memory. I still don’t know exactly what, but I do know I’ve read or seen something about them in the past few years at some point, somewhere. The main thing is: it’s really not important. I saw their live set and it was really good. I got a shirt, they gave me a poster too. I would have gotten a CD but they didn’t have any with them.<\/p>\n

On Friday, after Attika 7, Mindset Evolution played.<\/p>\n

Really liked their sound. They opened with Hopeless. I listened, recorded it with my phone, then when the next song started I listened a bit and left to find their booth and buy their CD. It was a $5 EP only availble through them LIVE. Not online, not digital download available. 5 songs and it is a good recording. I like them, and will be looking forward to a full album.<\/p>\n

It was really HOT and I put up with it like a champ, if I must say so myself, considering that I overheat so fast … but Vegas is a dry heat, so that accounts for much of my ability to tolerate it longer than at home (humidity is my mortal enemy!)<\/p>\n
