dude i was at this it was awsome i was like at the front fucking immense the guitar solo thing was the best they where way better than dragonforce check out my video (if you want)
i was at this gig, fucking awesome. Turisas waaaaay overpowered dragonforce! It could have, and did, only go downhill after turisas came on. Dragonforce were good, but still..the stars of the night where turisas by far
Dragonforce really should have supported Turisas, Turisas really showed them up at Southampton. Still, a great gig and still a few bruises left (almost 3 weeks ago!)
I'd like to see a Turisas gig, but both bands are excellent - I think Turisas impressed a hell of a lot of people and Saturday, which is excellent! Introduced themselves to a wider audience too, myself included - Only started listening to them since I heard they were supporting the Force, and haven't turned back :P
I said this before elsewhere. I wasn't sure what to expect from this band, but they knocked my fucking socks off. Also, did anyone think this whole section was kind of a dig against Dragonforce who basically rely on speed and guitar solos? Just a thought.
I find it funny that these supported Dragonforce with a song like Fuck the Guitar Solos. XD

Nah, I didn't think it was a dig, it was fun, they're friends ;) But maybe it was to prove they can do it too, in their own way?
