I can still remember the day we got the announcement…. Knotfest was finally coming to Australia! The Metal Community of Brisbane needed this and boy oh boy did Knotfest deliver. We arrived before the gates were open and congregated with the sea of fellow black clothed metalheads. Entry was pretty seamless and we were in before too long! As the rain started to drizzle we went straight to the

Sir Rod Stewart would be taking to stage in a few short hours and the crowd was early and excited! I always love seeing the crowd there for the opening acts, and first up brother and Sister Duo, DACY did not disappoint!

Live Review: Bad Omens, The Triffid 2023 Live Review by Hear2Zen Magazine - March 23, 2023March 23, 20230 HEADLINER: BAD OMENSSUPPORT: IN BLOOMVENUE: THE TRIFFID, BRISBANEDATE: MARCH 22ND 2023REVIEWER: ANDREW TREADWELL Australia, Knotfest time is here. The excitement in the metal community is indescribable, and its harkening back to the Soundwave years. Side Shows, Festivals, In stores, Lack Of Sleep and all in all a shit load of fun! The Triffid hosted Bad Omens for their first ever Australian show, and also the kick off to all that is Knotfest in our town. Now you wont see any photos from this show, as the band requested to have no photographers, for all their sets in Australia.

We put on our sunscreen and packed lots of water and made our way to Sirromet. We made a bit of a family day of it with friends and our 2 boys, which is easy to do at A Day On The Green, as kids under 12 are free. Although I would say a quick side note, there is not much shade at Sirromet, in fact at almost none, so when we found a little at the top of the
Live Review: Backstreet Boys – Brisbane 2023 Live Review by Hear2Zen Magazine - March 9, 2023March 9, 20230 As the crowd filed out of the Entertainment Centre you could hear the same sentiments over and over again. “Best Show Ever”, “Well Worth The Wait”, “I Can’t Believe (insert members name) Is Soooooooooo HOT”.
