Jealous about all of those except Dragonforce. I agree, when I saw them, they really nailed their music. I really like them, and had always heard bad things about them. I don't know why people hate on them. They were really cool and had a solid, impressive show. 3 encores!!!

I also somehow I forgot I saw Oasis, my favorite band, somehow. They were very, very on point. I've heard about some bad performances by them, but not this one.

I also saw Hatebreed ages ago during the tour for the Perserverance album, and they were so full of energy and crowd appreciation. They were the last band to go on, and proceeded to play their set. The crowd was so pumped up, they then proceeded to play pretty much every song they'd ever written. Jamey Jasta was standing across my shoulders and my friends for a few songs, and he would pass the mic down to us to keep singing because his voice was starting to go. The whole crowd was involved and it was really terrific.
