Looking forward to Slipknot / Machine Head / Children of Bodom in December.
Best gig ever was probably Slayer / Machine Head in 1994 (or 1995, can't quite remember) in which, during a struggle with the bouncers during Machine Head's set, Rob Flynn helped me up on stage for some serious stage diving...
During a Hatebreed gig, the final song "I Will Be Heard" was dedicated to "that young dude over there on his dad's shoulders" (ie Mini Noms).
After a Still Remains gig, the lead Guitarist came out and shook hands with mini-noms and stated how he rocked the whole show.
At the Download festival in 2005 Trivium insisted on having their photo taken with min-noms for their website and Kerrang magazine.
I swear, mini noms gets all the best gig experiences. I only wish he'd been around during Metallica's 1991/92 tour, we'd have been guaranteed a place in the snakepit for sure...

I was posted to Northern Ireland (without my family) and for the lack of anything better to do on a weekend me and some friends went to a concert in Dublin and Kelly was playing. I would rate her performance as the worst I have ever seen...

Saw Kelly before too and Noms is right. She and Andrew WK played together when we saw them on a sidestage at Ozzfest one year. Andrew WK is actually entertaining on stage but Kelly should be thankful her pops is rich and has made the Osbourne name famous because if it was up to her she'd be SOL.........

NOMS-That is so cool that all of those bands like to recognize MINI-NOMS! He must have been having the time of his life! Did his pic make it into Kerrang mag?
TOXIC SAMMY HAIN- You saw Head East? When was that? "There's Never Been Any Reason"-I remember my friend's neighbor had a band, and they were rehearsing that song allllll dayyyy long when I was visiting. His mother was ready to go over there and kill them! But I still love that song!

Who have I seen in concert?? Nobody.. Never been to one. Not my bag. I like Music, but have never felt compelled to pay 60 to 100 euros to go up to Dublin and stand around for two hours watching somebody who makes ridiculous amounts of money sing. But maybe I'm missing something!!

I know what you're saying and given the choice I would never have watched them. However, they were fantatstic and really interacted well with the crowd and were definitely my surprise band of the weekend.

I used to get in the pit at every show that had a pit up until about 3 years ago lol. By far the most brutal pit I have ever been in out of many is a pit at a Slayer show and a close second would be Slipknot pits and Lamb of God pits (tie). I go to the shows now and watch the pits close by. Sounds like a good show you'll be missing Sam but at least it's for a good reason......

I used to hit all the pits too, but I'm too old for that now. Once, I got thrown about 20 feet and my knee crashed into a keg. I felt it for weeks.

Just got back from seeing Slipknot and Children of Bodom on the final night of their European tour in Luxembourg.
Unfortunately no Machine Head due to Phil Demmel passing out in Sheffield but the gig was still awesome.
Me and mini noms were at the front for the whole gig and clown dropped down from the stage to high five the front row and when he saw mini noms he ruffled his hair. At the end of the gig, when the knot were throwing out drumsticks, Chris came down to us and placed a drumstick in mini noms hand.
I would have preferred more music off the new album but I still rate this gig as one of the best I have been to.

I've barely been to any concerts in my life. I saw Bananarama back in 1989, and the last concert I went to was The Whitlams in 2000.
My dying wish is to go to a Kylie Minogue concert, it's just not the same on DVD.
