I haven’t looked at more than a few of my (1,500+) photos from the 2019 Gefle Metal Festival yet, but here is one from a couple years ago.

Jo Quail @ 2019 Gefle Metal Festival
#GefleMetalFestival
@JoQuailCello
I was supposed to see MYRKUR again this summer, twice. However, she is pregnant and has cancelled her shows. Jo Quail took her spot at the Gefle Metal Festival this past weekend. KADAVAR is her replacement at Brutal Assault, but I may miss them due to a time conflict with Hypocrisy and Cult of Luna. I love all three bands so it will be hard to choose. Maybe all of Hypocrisy and a bit of the other two, as I haven’t seen Hypocrisy before.
Anyway, back to Jo Quail. Her music is wonderful, looping, hypnotic soundscapes that I quite enjoy. I don’t understand why more metal bands don’t have someone on a cello. I’m pretty sure this was the second time I’ve seen Jo Quail. I think she was on the cello when MYRKUR did her softer set at 2018 Roskilde Festival on the Gloria Stage.
I kind of wish they had swapped her spot with Primordial, but then I wouldn’t have been able to see Night Crowned so it all worked out.
Black metal afternoon

Valkyrja goes on at 13:35 with the sun shining brightly on them. Hmmmmm….
*** update: I preblogged the above before going to Sweden as I went without my laptop. SAS bumped Primordial off the plane they had tickets for so they couldn’t play on Friday. Valkyrja took Primodial’s spot on Friday in the evening and Primordial got stuck with the sun spot on Saturday. Photos from both sets coming here soon.

First, part two of a story that spanned 30 years. Part one of the story can be found here.
Part two goes like this: At the 2017 Gefle Metal Festival, pictured above, I was backstage and heading to the bathroom before Death Angel hit the stage. I turned a corner and Rob, also pictured above, appeared. I said “Hi Rob” and he responded with a “Hi, do you know where the bathroom is?” I responded with something like, “That’s where I’m heading; this way.” So there I found myself, once again pissing next to a member of Death Angel, with 30 years separating the two events.
If teenager me could have seen the video below and been told that I would only have to live until I was in my 50s to see it, I would have gladly continued living. 😉
May 31 is the big day for this.
