Loud Park 2015 (Day 1 - Part 3) / ラウドパーク ２０１５ （初日ーパート３）

Back for more head banging after lunch.  I watched the full set of Metal Allegiance.  As my high school and college years was back in the early '80s, this was like a minor time slip for me.  Yes, I have always been a metal head, thanks to my older brother.  Heck, the first record I ever bought (with my own allowance) was Black Sabbath's "Paranoid".  I was still in the 5th grade!  And the group Metal Allegiance.  Members from some of the best known names in metal were part of the show tonight - Charlie Benante, Scott Ian, and Frank Bello from Anthrax.  Alex Skolnick and Chuck Billy from Testament.  Mark Osegueda from Death Angel. Dave Ellefson from Megadeth and Gary Holt from Exodus / Slayer.  Oh, and the tunes the played.  There were a couple of original songs but everybody sang along to those anthems from the '80s (see set list below).

ランチから戻ってMetal Allegianceのフールセットを観戦した。や～、ちょっとタイムスリップした感じだったな。僕は昔からメタル少年でした。３年年上の兄の影響だ。 僕はまだ小学校５年生の時に自分のお小遣いで初めて買ったレコードがなんとブラック・サバスの「パラノイド」でした。日本アニメテーマと山元リンダーが好きだった僕がメタルに目覚めた。Metal Allegianceの凄いところははやっぱり参加してるメンバーですよ。今夜のライブで見られたはアンスラックス、テスタメント、デス・エンジェル、メガデス等のメンバーでした。オリジナル曲もやってけど、やっぱり一番盛り上がるのはは皆が知ってるメタルの名曲ばっかり（下記のセットリストにご覧ください）。

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lets see if we can all of tonight's members on stage.

 

今夜参加したメンバー全員ステージに立とう。

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Set List:

 

1. The Green Manalishi (with the Two-Pronged Crown) (Fleetwood Mac cover)

2. Wrathchild (Iron Maiden cover)
3. Can't Kill the Devil
4. Heaven and Hell (Black Sabbath cover)
5. Run to the Hills (Iron Maiden cover)
6. Pledge of Allegiance

Oｆ course all the metalheads are more familiar with the Judas Priest version of "The Green Manalishi".

 

メタルヘッドならジューダスバージョンのグリーンマナリシが有名ですけどね。

 

 

 

I wasn't too familiar with this band but checked out a couple of their tunes before heading to the Kingdom Stage to see another veteran Japanese band - Anthem play.  I've seen Anthem before but since I was more familiar with them, I chose to watch most of their set.

 

このバンドがあんまり知らないので二曲位聴いて、そのごキングダム・ステージに移動して、また日本のベテランバンドのアンセムのセットを見ました。

I think I skipped this band's set too. I don't mind there music, just not a big fan. Or maybe I saw a song or two.

 

このバンドも見逃したな。嫌いではないけど、そんなに興味はなかった。ま、一曲位はみたかも。

I had a dilemma here.  I wanted to watch their full set but during the same time slot, Testament would be playing the Big Rock Stage. As I had never seen Testament live, I only watched a couple of tunes from Hammerfall (I have been to one of their concerts in the past) and then had to check out Chuck Billy and Alex Skolnick in person.

 

ここで問題発生。見たいバンドの時間帯がかぶってる！キングダム・ステージにハマーフォール。ビッグロックステージにテスタメント。自分は今までテスタメントのライブが見たことなっかので、ハンマフォールを２曲位みてビックロックステージに移動。

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Set List:

1. Hector's Hymn

2. Last Man Standing
3. Any Means Necessary

And right after Testament's set - the guys from New York!  But I decided to watch their set from the stands.  I was getting pretty tired. Still, five more bands after them!

テスタメントのセットが終わったら、次がニューヨーク出身の大物、アンスラックス！ この辺で自由席のほうに行った。これからまだ５組が出るので結構疲れた。
