Rob Zombie/Mastodon/Machine Concert Review

My friend Jamie and I went to see Rob Zombie, Mastodon, and Machine Head in Columbus.

I was very excited to see Machine Head because I unfortunately missed them in 2007 when they opened for Heaven And Hell (Black Sabbath w/Dio) and Megadeth.

So, this was a long time coming.

They put on a great set of songs from their catalog and really kicked butt.

I’m glad I finally got to see them.

Mastodon played next.  I only have a few of their albums but they were very good and solid.

Now Rob Zombie?  He’s always AMAZING.

I love all of his albums and live, he and his band always deliver.

Also, Zombie likes to go out into the crowd sometimes, and when he did this night, he walked right past Jamie and I and I actually was able to touch his dust jacket.  Ha.

Great night.
