Edge Fest

Edge Fest Review.....

Wow what a day,Yes Kat & I got to hang out yesterday with Sebastian.
With know doubts it was one of the greatest days in my life & certainly the BEST show.
We had a crazy time finding it there where all these little turns here turn here 0.4,0.3,1.0
0.3 miles.

We got to the fair grounds & where looking around for Sebastian & the band
Finally we spotted Bobby setting up his drums then Rob who came over said hello
then Mike. Finally we saw Sebastian & the guys doing an interview Kat took a pic
& the security asked if she would like her to take a pic. And of course that was
a Hell Yes answer. Well as she took the pic Baz look over & saw us.

I pointed out My ANGEL DOWN T shirt & he said where the Fuck did you get that
& I yelled back it's from Australia, Kat Put my Name on in large pice of paper ACEKICKEN
& with in he said something & with in 2 mins we where standing next to him..

I was on Cloud Fucking 9!!!!!!
He said wait right here I got presents for you & gave us T shirts
& got us Backstage Passes he asked us if we had the FS 2 CDs
I told him I had every CD every song but he caught me asked if I had any Harrenvolk
which no but I wish I did. He took a ton of pic's with us.

Fast forward he had to get ready. When he came out he told us to go into the
crowd for the show. The Edge introduced the band & they opened the show
with Back in the saddle. There version is so FUCKING HEAVY
From there the played Slave to the grind,Big Guns,Here I am,American Metalhead
Piece of me Stuck inside,18 & life,By your side ,You don't under stand

Next was Monkey Business with MAMMA said Knock you out right dead
smack in the middle & the fans where going CRAZY Head banging, moshing
Crowd Riding It was time for I remember you but the Acoustic Guitar was not
working a problem that has been happening more often then Not Baz took it
& in one smash BLEW it up & the fans Loved & where all grabbing pieces of it
Baz said we can put a man on the moon but we can't get 6 nylon strings to play
on an Acoustic guitar Mike played it clean & the band sounded AMAZING as they had
on every song I finally made it to the front of the stage for Youth Gone Wild but I saw everyone from the Back was coming out on the Stage & the Band was ripping through the song I thought I have to go up there
& so I did There I was Jumping up & down Baz saw me pulled me to the front of the stage
& I got to see him finish YOUTH GONE WILD in front of 10,000 Screaming METAL HEADS!

Sebastian I can not thank you Rob, Mike,Bobby & Johnny enough
the show was great meeting my Idol was AMAZING Baz made us feel like Family!

To KATKICK 10 stars to you my friend for everything.
She drove into my home town rented a Hotel & brought me to
this show & helped me meet my IDOL FOREVER THANK YOU!

I want to thank Aussiegirl for sending me the Angel Down T shirt
I sported it with pride & it defintly shocked Sebastian.

OK if I think of more I will write it down IM still on Cloud 9
The show was Amazing Baz,Rob,Mike,Johnny & Bobby
The SEBASTIAN BACH BAND You Guy's are # 1 Im looking forward
to the new CD & seeing you guys again.

Certainly one of the most electrifying performers of any decade

[Bazerrk]

ummm quick question, did you ask him any questions about Angel Down...if they had any delays because of Axl being on the record...etc?

[Katkick]

Ok, just a few photos for now (loads going on today)...

This picture was one of the highlights of the day for me and especially for Ace and Sebastian. How lucky was it that I was standing right there on the spot when Sebastian first met Ace!! and of course he's telling everyone "This is Acekicken from my board!!".. ..lol...

Wish you all could have seen how extreamly excited Sebastian was to meet Ace! He could not have been happier at that moment. ... (how many hugs did you get Ace? I lost track - ha!)

AND! I captured it on film!!!





and here is one where he's being interviewd/ filmed by the local station - this is where we first saw him AND where he first saw Ace's T-shirt ....





here is a closer shot after we got through security...



Tha'ts it for now.. .. MORE to come. - but this was the start!


Oh, did I say how NICE everyone was? Sebastian, Mike, Rob, Johnny, and Bobby .. some of the nicest people you'll ever meet.

[savageanimal]

Great pics! They all look great!
Have you made a shot of the new tattoo?

[Katkick]

;D - it's a killer tat

I'll post it after the show airs

[savageanimal]

Okay great!

do you know when the show airs?

[Katkick]

have not looked on the site today yet. - I'm at work and need to get back .. but check out TLC website and maybe they have updated info (forgot to ask Baz)..

Also, when Scott was scheduled to be on the show, there was no mention of his name in any of the episode descriptions - I only knew he'd be on by watching the show and seeing the preview for the following week.

[Bazerrk]

They have the one with Scott on already on YouTube.

[Katkick]

2 more...

[gunsnmotley]

is that a new Angel down shirt on baz? looks cool.

love his KISS shirt in the first pic.

[rocknrollmom]

I noticed that the onstage pics were taken in daylight? Was Baz the headliner, and what time did the show end?

[Katkick]

He went on stage around 6 PM .. he started playing around 6:10 or so (the radio station was throwing stuff out into the audience etc.) ... he was supposed to be on stage for one hour but said "Fuck That!, we're here to ROCK!" so he played until after dark . . I'd say around 7:30 maybe it was 8? No one was leaving that's for sure

Honestly it seemed like it all went so fast.!! loads of scuffles down in the mosh all that body surfing (if anyone got out of hand, they were pulled up into the air and rolled to the back and left to fall to the ground.. ouch!)-- hard to take pictures.

Wish Keith was there to snap some shots ;D

[Katkick]

Ok- a few more photos...

This one is interesting .. it's Rob walking toward us (he's smiling at Ace's T-shirt), but notice in the back, Sebastian had just appeared from out of nowhere and the uniforms start running, Ha! see that swarm of folks near Baz?



and here is Ace ;D and Rob (and the swarm is bigger.. lol)

[Bazerrk]

Awww Ace looks so CUTE!!!!

[Bazerrk]

Wooot found some Edgefest footage!!!

[Katkick]

Ok, road story...

Ace was the ticket! a few rode with him...
there was me:



and then there were these guys -- ( they were hanging around the security gate and as we were led in, they told security they were with us (we did not see them until they were right by our sides), they clung to us for a long time -- lol.. they were korny (and sort of funny) they do that kind of thing all the time. Ace, was it the guy with the hat who kept calling Sebastian, Sebastian Ba(t)ch (pronounced without the (t)? Ace corrected him a few times but finally we had to tell him he wasn't going to get a comp backstage pass if he couldn't pronounce the artists name right .. oh boy!


BTW.. the dude on the right managed to be with all of us after the show and had all the guys sign the back of his shirt

{I told you guys I was going to post your pic's .. so everyone from security, look these guys over -- you'll probably see them stalking right outside the gate }

LOL I al; ready posted these lol

[Bazerrk]

sorry, I didn't see them. I wish they were taken in front of the stage though...you really can't hear Baz....

[Katkick]

some 'show' photos....(not well done with all the action going on out there it was rough)
well, this first one shows Bobby getting drums ready (man! it takes a loooooong time to set those up!)






just when you thought you were going to get a great shot, a foot or head came flying at you...




a few more.. later!

[Katkick]

Here are a few of the shots I could get while on-stage for "Youth Gone Wild"..
the first shot you can see Ace with his arm held up high, jumping around (it was mayhem up there..LOL.. you should have seen the body guards hahaha!).. this is right before Baz see's him... ( you can see some people holding up parts of that guitar Ace told you about. The one Sebastian smashed because they couldn't get it to work. OMG! that was freaking fantastic! The crowd went wild!)



Then, here you can see Sebastian after he pulls Ace up and gives him the BIGGEST HEARTFELT HUG!! I mean it was 'knock down' amazing to watch Ace being grabbed by Sebastian, pulled up to the front, hugged and they both are screaming singing the words as the end of the song was being played..!! !! OMG!! it was .... KILLER!! Nothing can beat that! I'll never forget watching that ;D


And LOOK at THIS smile as we were getting off the stage ;D HA! -- It all took our breath away!! WOWZA! -

[jojo711]

Yes you did,I have seen Baz live many times
but getting to meet him was off the charts.

Again I can not say thank you to Kat enough for taking
the time out to help me get there.

Sebastian Bach band was the best both
on stage & off. Baz took time out to talk to the fans
as did Mike,Rob,Johnny & Bobby.


They are a great band & I look forward to
many more shows & of course more Music....


ANGEL DOWN is going to shred....

[Bazerrk]

Now that is a guy on Cloud 9!!! You will be that way for at least a month! I know I was!!!

appreciate the thanks once again Ace. Everything just came together like magic. It was a team effort - If not for you I wouldn't have been there [two ears hung up and all] .. so, things just worked out (ha! even that wrong turn down that street that took us in a circle -- what a howl!). We both just happened to be LUCKY! all the way around
It was just meant to be ;D

Thanks jojo
Ace, Sebastian, and all the guys were EZ to take pics of...even Johnny who was really nice to stop twice to allow me to take a shot.. neither took?? Anyhow, Ace said maybe I needed someone in the picture .. lol.. once Ace got in the picture it took (3rd time !) -- pretty funny

[Katkick]

- Oh! and here is Bobby and Mike
