A Night of Growls and Riffs: Arch Enemy Live in World Trade Center Manila October 20, 2009


It's been almost six years since I set eyes on Arch Enemy's Concert that was held in World Trade Center, Manila on October 20, 2009 (Tuesday). Prices of tickets are P 2,000 (VIP, meet and greet), P 1,500 (VIP) and P 600 (general admission). My friends and I purchased the VIP:Meet and Greet.

Before the highlight, the show featured local acts (Mortal Fear, Bloodshedd, Badburn,and Intolerant).

Later on, the crowd cheered as Arch Enemy made their entrance on stage. I still have the lucid memory of the enthusiastic crowd. It was crazy. It was just another night in the roaring moshpit.

Unfortunately, I cannot find their setlist that night on the internet. In spite of that I assure you that they played most of their compelling tracks. After the show, we proceeded to the backstage for the meet and greet. While waiting for the band members of Arch Enemy the crew gave us 2 slices pizza for each and a can of soda. After an almost hour of waiting, only Daniel Erlandsson (drummer) and Sharlee D' Angelo (bassist) attended the meet and greet. A large number of people got disappointed, but we were still thankful two of the members were present for the Meet and Greet.

These two members (Daniel and Sharlee) who were present during the meet and greet were awesome. We know you guys were tired but still you managed to join us at the backstage. Kudos! That night was a blast!
