Hi Simon. You're looking good. Long time no see. Even though ill health means my biggish festival days are in the past I can still get to the M2M heats. The sound of a drummer blast beating still makes my 68 year old heart beat faster and my head definitely wants to nod. The competitions are a great way to check out new or reformed bands. I highly recommend M2M competitions for those new to metal. And especially those returning to gigs after life (marriage, babies and work 😂) got in the way. It's how I got back into metal 17 years ago. And it's how I met you in 2110 after I was asked to stand in for a M2M judge in Birmingham. That resulted in me attending 10 BOA festivals. Remember to bring your ear plugs. Aword if warning. Under no circumstances ask Simon to park your van. 😂 😂 😂
I heard about this way of performing at bloodstock and Novacrow really inspired me to revise my music career plan personally 😊 Hopefully if I work hard enough I might be playing on a the new blood stage 2025, These bands and videos like this really are inspiring and motivating thankyou 😝🤘
