MOONSPELL weekend!!!
Halloween weekend was the best amazing weekend I can ever have. I went to Ramona on Halloween night with my sister and friend to go see a band called Moonspell, which they come from Portugal. We arrived around 3:30 p.m. We were the first ones there. Perhaps and hour or two later the band arrives. As we were outside we see the singer, Fernando, and we take a picture with him. We were let in the venue early, so we were watching the band setup and do their soundcheck and stuff. It comes down to around 8:oo p.m and we are by the bar. Out of nowhere there they are just chilling. So I go up to the bass player, Don Aires, and i take a picture and get his autograph. Then I let him be because he was eating. Afterwards he comes up to us and starts to talk to us for a good hour or so. Then the drummer, Miguel/Mike, comes out and we take a picture with him and he starts to talk to us for an hour aswell. During that hour he introduced us to his friend Pedro and we are all there just conversating. Then he speaks to Pedro in Portuguese and tells him something I don’t know what, but Pedro leaves and comes back with shirts. They gave us free shirts that we didn’t even asked for. I almost wanted to cry. They also invited us to chill with them after the show but since it was a a two hour drive we didn’t want to risk it. It came around 10:00 p.m so we went by the stage until Moonspell played. We were right in the front. The setlist was AMAZING!!! They started off with At Tragic Heights followed by Night Eternal, Finisterra. After this I don’t remember the order Opium, Wolfshade ( A Werewolf Masquerade), Scorpion Flower, Vampiria, Moon in Mercury, Alma Mater, Blood Tells, Mephisto, i think Nocturna and I do remember the last song since it is my favorite Full Moon Madness. At the end of the show I got the drumstick. This ended the first night of a two part series ;D.
Now the second night was held in Hollywood at the Roxy Theatre. Better than the first night! Well we arrived around sevenish and the doors had barely opened. It was the same bands and same setlist. Well when they finished it was around 2:45 a.m and Mike told us to wait because they wanted to give us something. Pedro came out and he told us to go backstage and we did. So we go uptairs and they gave us each a paper signed by all of them and with the complete setlist. Afterwards we were there sitting with Mike and Pedro talking and just hanging out. Then the guitar player Ricardo comes and joins us. We also take a picture with him. It comes down to like 4:15 a.m and their tourbus finally arrives. So we go outside and they invite us in. That tourbus was huge and really nice. Since we only had about fifteen minutes left because they were going to Tempe, Arizona, we made it the best fifteen minutes. Well when it was time to get off the bus, the band comes out aswell and says their goodbyes to us. We took our final picture with the guitar/keyboardis which his name is also Pedro. The crazy part was that they remember our names and hopefully they will remember us until next time. Here are some pictures from both the shows.
