This almost slipped by me. I have been working like a dog lately. Luckily Brian Bloodaxe clued me in. Over the years I have come to appreciate the Prime Evil era of Venom, so I will definitely be there. Here are the details from the Once page:
The stage banter alone from the guy from Sunlord was worth the ticket price
It really was nice of them to come drink amongst us after their set.

Show recap:
Panzer Bastard: Shreds. Old news.
Sunlord: "ASTEROOOID IN THE FIYAAA ASTEROOOOOID IN THE FIYAHH... ASTEROID..."
Necrophagia: I was a year old when this band formed. I still don't get it.
Venom: Holy crap.
Warhead: Saw two dudes high five when the drum intro started. Had no judgments. Song kills.
Party Metal Scene: Still alive and well. Throw some horns. Walk around the floor finding people to do 1 of 5 approved metal poses with. Disappear for 5 songs and then come back with a giant drink already precariously overflowing and try to tiptoe your way through a crowd of people headbanging. Stand in the middle of the floor texting and recording the show on your phone. Juggle your beer and cell phone so you can throw your horns up with your friends at the end of the song. Do everything possible to not watch the band that you pretend defines your life.

"You guys were right, Benon is great! Glad I already had this patch."
^ Only one of those guys played. The other two left the band when the guy in the Pappo shirt told them they were paying $600 a night to hop on the Venom tour. The drummer and bass player on tour are last minute replacements.
