This was a warm-up gig for Beltane, who had come up from Nelson to support Impaled Nazerene the next night. I turned up just before their set, having missed all the support acts in the name of money [day-jobs suck]. They were in pretty good form, but they were playing to only about 20 people, as the promotion had been shocking. I guess it's a pretty good reflection on the state of Black Metal in this country.
They turned it on for them though, and I had a lot of fun.
