01. Sigur Rós
Date: 01 Aug 2008
Venue: Festival Hall
Support: Pivot
Highlights: Popplagið,
All alright
Notes: Firstly, Pivot were great. Been wanting to see them for a long time and they didn't disappoint. You always hear a lot of batting off over how good Sigur Ros are which from my understanding now comes purely from their live show. This isn't to say their recorded work is sub-par, just that they are amazing live. The last half of Popplagið is the most incredible thing I've ever experienced at a show.

02. Iron Maiden
Date: 07 Feb 2008
Venue: Rod Laver Arena
Support: Vanishing Point, Lauren Harris
Highlights:Hallowed Be Thy Name, The Trooper
Notes: Completely missed the supports so can't comment on them, Maiden were pretty much amazing. In fact "pretty much amazing" doesn't cover it, there isn't a word to express how good they were. Probably would rate this as one of my top 10 all time gigs, definitely best metal experience I've had.
