Black Label Society Review

the legendary Black Label Society to take the reins and bring the evening to a climax. As the band entered the stage the crowd went wild with enthusiasm. The fervour of the masses amplified and cheering filled the venue when the legend himself, Zakk Wylde, entered the stage. BLS ripped through a set that had their legion of fans, lovingly referred to as “The Doom Crew,” singing along and head banging with an impassioned fury. Playing songs from across their catalogue the men of BLS brought the chugging guitars, heavy bass and pummeling drums that have gained them such a dedicated following over the years. Running through songs like “Bleed For Me,” “My Dying Time,” “Angel of Mercy,” and the heartfelt dedication to ex-Pantera guitarist Dimebag Darrell Abbott “In This River,” Wylde and company captivated the crowded music hall. One of the highlights of the night was Wylde embarking on a ten minute guitar solo mid-set to the amazement and wonder of the crowd. Closing on the classic, “Stillborn,” Black Label Society ended the evening exactly as they had begun it, with fans cheering and screaming for more.
