Holy shit, what a gig. I enjoyed Stratovarius more than HammerFall, probably because I've never seen them before and they played a more satisfying set. Watching Tolkki peeling off those awesome solos was a joy to behold. Just amazing. The newer songs, which obviously aren't as good, sounded better in a live environment - the additonal keyboards on Fight worked particularly well.
HammerFall were great as well, but as I say, a few key songs were missing (only an hour on stage).
The support band were Shakra, but thanks to some piss-awful organising by the venue staff they were on and off the stage before I'd got into the place. :evil:
I saw them a few months back ad they fucking owned!
I can't believe they played "Fight!" That is the only song I like off the new album, and they didn't play it in Chicago. I would have loved to hear it with Jens turned up.
