Just after Wacken the opposite - a prog metal gig at (szene) Wien. As it turns out, the support acts were the real thing for us.

Merch: signed Plini Trilogy CD
Again? yes, anytime
The "Sold Out" sign at the entrance surprises us for the first time. I do not remember to see (szene) Wien so packed like this evening. However, the real surprise is Plini, the first support act. It seemed that we were the only guys in the room that did not know them - and they were incredibly good. I immediately bought the fabulous 'Trilogy' CD during the gig and even got a signature on it - many thanks! Compared to Plini, Animals As Leaders, though being the main act, sounded this little bit too complex and the sound seemed muddy. I do not remember any gig, in which I liked the support act that much better like at this evening. Don't get me wrong, AAL were not bad at all, but Plini just rocked the place tonight. This is why I close this post with a YouTube version of Plini's brilliant 'Selenium Forest'. Cheers!
