Fri 9 Oct – Gojira, Burst, Zoroaster
I have missed Gojira twice. Not once, but twice, all within the same timeframe of a year. Considering that I would call myself a "big fan" of Gojira, that's a terrible, terrible ratio without excuse, especially considering that I missed out on one of them to see Eagles of Death Metal (decent band, to be sure, but Gojira is so much better, even if they were opening for the decidedly average In Flames).
So, feeling disgusted with myself, I held onto some money and decided this would be the time to see them. My friends got with me in a car and we drove to Logan Square Auditorium, parked and went up the rather thin staircase up to the room. We entered, and Zoroaster was playing. Some local thrash band named Diamond Plate had already played. I hope nothing of value was missed.
Anyway, Zoroaster. They were around the end of their setlist when I caught them. They're apparently a sludge/doom metal band. …
