Dino has said Burton can't pull it off live at all anymore and from what I've watched from live shows he's not wrong. FF has a special place in my cold cynical heart. Saw them at a small gross metal venue in town in 99 with static x and system of a down opening. Holy shit I couldn't hear for days after. Was also my first taste of static and SOAD ... Both touring their debuts that I consider masterpieces to this day.
The biggest suprise was watching SOAD not knowing what I was in for. Standing in what would turn into the pit as they opened with PLUCK.

I had the same thought after searching for some live shit. A lot of these guys were probably just immortal in their own minds and felt they didn't need to take care of themselves and they are gonna live forever. Gotta take care of your voice, it ain't gonna last forever. Anselmo and Burton really display that first hand. It's amazing Corey Taylor has as much left as he's got - he was one of the smart ones that figured it the fuck out before it was career ending

I've been packing boxes all day and listening to surf rock and heavy metal, and probably one of the best things that I haven't listened to in a long time is a slew of iced Earth albums.
And I forgot how much I liked this concept album. There's such a great goddamn band, and I remember buying I guess the first album that I had discovered them with was the Dark Saga and the whole goddamn thing was about Spawn. Horror show is great because it's all about the classic movie monsters, and then they had the glorious burden and there were songs about Attila and valley forge, just good stuff.
I guess they're magnum opus stuff is all about the birth of the wicked Armageddon and antichrist stuff.

Corey Taylor is actively taking it easy now. I don't watch Steve-Os podcast but I did catch a clip in my algorithm with Corey on the podcast and talking about how he's always in pain now and it's getting harder to move. The 90s were fucking wild for the metal scene and a lot of bands just didn't care. Now they're older it's biting them all in the ass.

Join the fucking club. At least he got to get endless pussy. I worked in a warehouse.

Silver lining, I can sit outside and listen to some God damn metal. Enjoying a goddamn glass of whiskey and a cigar, revisiting my favorite bands.
