On Another Pilgrimage.

Here I am again, making what is now an all too familiar 200 mile round-trip to Gothenburg to see some live music...and yet again, I'm doing it alone, which means another night desperately hanging around looking pathetic so somebody talks to me, another lonely night in a sparse hostel room and another early morning train to work in the morning. Tragic or dedicated (both, perhaps)? And all of this will come at a cost of around £100 (including the price of a couple of beverages). I occasionally wonder to myself if it's worth it? The answer, of course, being...yes! Tonight's bands are Hell, Carcass and Amon Amarth and this is one of those rare gigs where I want to see all 3 bands. In fact, all of them have released albums this year that will be in my 'best of the year' list, 2 of them (Carcass and Hell) at nos 2 and 1 respectively, so that makes tonight extra special. Well, thanks for reading this pointless excuse for a blog post, which I will make up for with a review (providing I remember enough) to come later in the week. Have a good evening, people. I know I will.
