The day has finally come when I get to see one of my favorite bands live!!!!! I'm beyond excited!!

I worked until late evening (so tired... It's a 40-minute bike ride to the club....

...Joseph couldn't make it to the concert with me(( he's hosting a new couchsurfer! Joseph is a golden human being! We need more people like him in Russia =)

Can't really drink beer at the club, Heineken is $5, and the worst Bud and Miller are $4///////

Bought myself a t-shirt and a CD! (gonna get an autograph after the show ;)

Funny thing, Dysrhythmia is opening for Cynic!!!!!!!!! ooooooooo

Their bassist is the insane Colin Marston from Behold... The Arctopus!!!! He shreds like hell!!!!

The sound was amazing, nothing like our Tyumen sound, =D goosebumps...

After Dysrhythmia's set, I took a photo with the drummer and guitarist and chatted with them a bit (writing this with a translator)

Me: Hey guys!! Can I take a photo with you!

-Sure dude! Where are you from? (my accent gave it all away!!!!!! haha)

Me: I'm from Russia!

-ooo Moscow?

-no, Siberia!!!

-oooooooo

-I came to the USA just to see Cynic!

-oooooo dude you're crazy!!! We'll buy you a beer!!!

I will never forget this concert!

When most of the crowd had left, Paul Masvidal and Sean Reinert came out—I think anyone familiar with death metal knows who they are! I took photos with them, chatted a bit, and got an autograph! And all the way home, I couldn't stop smiling! =)
