Review of the After Forever concert last night!

Oct 13, 2007 - Station 4 - St. Paul, MN, USA

I went to my first ever metal concert and my first concert in six years last night for After Forever! It was a 2 hour drive each way, but it was totally worth it. There were two opening bands, but I had never heard of either of them, so for the first half of the first band’s set, I went outside to talk to Andre, who was really nice. When After Forever was set to go onstage, and pulled my friend with me up front (who had never heard of After Forever before the night before the concert!) and I stood right in front of Floor the whole time. ...And I think I was the only person in the venue who knew all the words to every song.

Anyway, this was the setlist:

Discord
Transitory
My Pledge of Allegiance - Part One
Monolith of Doubt
Energize Me
Face Your Demons
Digital Deceit
Lonely
De-energized
Being Everyone
For Whom the Bell Tolls
Equally Destructive
Dreamflight
Forlorn Hope
Follow in the Cry

The whole band was extremely nice, too! I got everyone’s autograph except Sander’s afterwards, and had conversations with everyone but him and Floor, too! I would definitely see the band again not only because of the great music, but because they all seem like such great people as well.

My only complaint about the concert was one that I’ve heard from other reviews of concerts at Station 4 - that the quality of the vocals through the speakers aren’t very good. I know Floor’s amazing - and she sounded amazing - but there were times that I couldn’t even hear her, and I couldn’t understand any of the words when she was talking between songs.

What Final Fantasy Character are you?
