It was a cold January night and thankfully the wind wasn't blowing. We were just coming off of a minor ice/sleet storm and waiting for 6 inches of snow to roll in. My brother and I ventured off into the night sky and waited in line outside of Ground Zero (a great venue for smaller shows here in town) to see, hear and witness the thunder of Fireflight and Disciple.
I saw Disciple last spring at the same place and they were really good (and loud)! Luckily I remembered my earplugs this time. Abandon Kansas opened the show. We didn't get to see them because we were waiting in line. I don't know why they wouldn't let us in. We had our tickets. That's OK. I was there to see Fireflight and Disciple. Neither band disappointed. Fireflight was full of energy and had plenty of power chords to fill the room. Once their part of the show was over, we went back to the merch table and met the band for pics and autographs and to pick up their latest CD as well as their original indie release.
Here's a picture of me with the band. They were all very nice and a lot of fun and, if you enjoy your music hard and loud with plenty of melody, then this band is for you.
If you're interested, you can check out their video "Waiting" below.

Decyfer Down played after Fireflight but we were saving our ears for Disciple so we just stood back in the merch room until they were done. Disciple was relentless in their display of powerful rock and roll. Again, loud, crunchy and melodic all at the same time. We were standing in front of the speakers, which was really the only place left to stand where we could see decently. It was so loud, I could feel my clothes moving. Thankfully I had earplugs in, a lesson learned from attending several concerts where the music was so loud it hurt (Evanescence, Motley Crue, Brother Cain). It was a great show and I really can't wait until they come back through town again. Here are some pictures from the Disciple performance. You'll notice several of the guitar player. That's because we were standing on his side of the stage and we could see him the best.

Looks like it was pretty cool. I especially love the pic where the guy has his fist on his chest. Sometimes I wished I lived in the city where performances like this were easier to attend.
