Primal Fear at Jaxx Nightclub

Are you ready? No, really... are YOU? Are you ready to throw your devil's horns up in the air as you remember Ronnie James Dio (R.I.P.) reminding us that he, not Gene Simmons, came up with the iconic sign of heavy metal. Are you ready to sing along to one of the most accoladed bands of this century? Are you ready to bang your head, as dueling guitar solos, high octave vocals, and the distinct power metal sound blasts through amps and stacks of speakers with decibels surpassing deafening levels? Are you ready for pure eardrum-piercing awesomeness handed to you by the gods of metal?

Are you...... ready...... for...... Primal Fear!!!

As Lauryn Hill so melodically puts it.. "ready or not, here I come, you can't hide" Yes, they're are coming to Jaxx Nightclub at Springfield, VA tomorrow, May 21 2010, and there's nothing any of us can do about it. Well... there is one; show up to Jaxx and enjoy pure power metal goodness!

Primal Fear, a German metal band who has captivated a worldwide following for the past decade, will be headlining tomorrow with acts from Brutallion, A Sound of Thunder, Cypher Lock, Metal Mike and Havok graciously opening. Watch out for Havok! Their sound is Thrash metal at its roots, which is really, its finest. And with local band, A Sound of Thunder, this is definitely a must-see concert for all you metalheads out there like myself! Coincindentally, A Sound of Thunder is raising awareness and money towards the "West Memphis Three" case. Their story was actually featured on Motorhead's site. If you would like to read more and contribute, please go here. More info on the West Memphis Three, here.

At $22.00 (advance) / $25.00 (door) , this is one hell of a cheap concert! Advice.. opt for the VIP pass for $50.00, which entitles you to a pre-show meet and greet with Primal Fear. Doors will be opening at 7:30 and show starts at 8:00pm. With this concert, and Saturday's Chili-Cook-Off with Stone Temple Pilots and Alice in Chains, it's getting more and more difficult to contain myself from all the metal/rock music coming to DC!

Rock on, DC Metalheads! Rock on! Good time's a'comin' to DC!
