While Day One sparked a bit of chaos, Day Two of HEAVY TO floored hundreds of on-lookers with its dynamic lineup that could make any metal-head cringe. Local acts such as DEAD AND DIVINE showed promise with a timeless performance, but those that followed – SLAYER, TESTAMENT, ANVIL, BILLY TALENT (yes) and MASTODON – struck chords and dropped jaws. That is, until one of the main headliners closed out the two-day affair with ease. Even if power chords and rash-inducing solos aren’t really your thing, ROB ZOMBIE did what he does best, and with hundreds of fists in the air hailing him, it was hard not to join in.

The majority of my pics of the bands on stage are as mediocre as my camera. So I went fishing around online for a few. Specifically, for Rob Zombie. His showmanship, the costumes, music,effects and so forth are always brilliant, creative, off the wall, artistic mahem, in my opinion.
I just wanted to give you & your camera credit where credit is defintely due. Your pics are fantastic! By far some of the best stage shots I have found yet! Especially Rob Zombie!!! Thank you.
