Last night was my first ritual, and damn, was it one hell of an early birthday present from myself! As usual, the doors opened at 7, but there were like 6 or 7 supporting bands (I lost count), so Otep didn't start playing until like 11 and we didn't get out until like 1. Most of the supporting bands were pretty good, but others weren't.
But shit, Otep was fucking amazing! I lost myself in the music from the get-go. My soul was freed from its bodily confines when they started playing Battle Ready, and didn't return to it until Menocide was finished. I was screaming every fucking word of every song, with all of my soul.
During one of the supporting bands, I look over to my left, and who do I see? Evil J, Otep's bassist! I was like "Holy shit!! ...I should've brought a damn Sharpie... Dammit!"
I had to walk home in a downpour while it was lightning with no umbrella, but it was definitely worth it, to see Otep in concert.
I definitely hope Otep will bring the revolution back to Buffalo. Last night was... Wow...
