Well, considering that I didn't review it (but someone else did, no worries!) - you can be damn sure, IMGoph that I was up front enjoying the hell out of that show. I feel bad for the 9:30 Club staff ...
The point that I was going for (but clearly failed to make) is that High on Fire is awesome. And that maybe folks with an aversion to metal (and there are many) should rethink that aversion and check ...
