When I got home last night, I was covered in blood and slime, my legs hurt from standing all night, and I couldn’t hear out of my left ear. Best concert ever?
When you hear GWAR is coming to London, you wouldn’t expect them to play at Cowboy’s Ranch, the local country music bar. But last night it traded crappy country for sweet, sweet metal.
Some lesser-known bands opened. It started with Toxic Holocaust, whose lead singer talked exactly like Nathan Explosion from Dethklok. Here is their lyrical masterpiece, Feedback, Blood and Distortion.
I showered when I got home, but my whole head is still sorta pink. It remains to be seen if my clothes will pull through the same colour they used to be. But dude, it was so worth it.

Kingdom of Sorrow’s stage left guitar player is Barry Gibb’s son. He has points on Barbara Streisand’s last record.

If you go to a Gwar concert there is a very real chance of being decapitated, it’s awesome. One of the best concerts I’ve been to for a long time, thanks Mike:)Dan

Well done. That’s a great inside look at the GWAR experience. I have always liked the band ever since I glimpsed the < HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nO-wAfvIF3s" REL="nofollow">Sick Of You video<> with all the mayhem.

Holy balls I saw them in Kansas City for the first time a few weeks back. I was my first Gwar concert, so I proudly wore my white shirt which is now FOREVER stained orangeish pink. That’s amazing!

I saw them like 20 years ago in SoCal. I’ve never experienced anything like it. I’m surprised they are still around.
