Here are various photos that I took of this very special show to benefit Sean Killian (who is currently finding a donor for a liver due to cirrhosis) of Vio-Lence. It was a very packed house at the Midway in San Francisco. Members of various Bay Area Metal bands (including Robb Flynn, Deen Dell, Perry Strickland, Ray Vegas, and Mark Hernandez of Vio-Lence, Craig Locicero and Matt Camacho of Forbidden, Chuck Billy and Eric Peterson of Testament, Steve Souza, Tom Hunting, and Rob Dukes of Exodus, Harald Oimoen of D.R.I. and Blind Illusion, Gary Wendt of Sacrilege B.C., Scott Holderby of Mordred, Sven Soderlund of Mercenary, Kevin Reed of Attitude Adjustment, Jeff Salgado of Psychosomatic, Ted Aguilar and Will Carroll of Death Angel, Matt Harvey of Exhumed, Dekapitator, Gruesome, and Pounder, and Ahrue Luster of Horde Of Torment) joined together on stage to play some sort of an all-star benefit show for Sean Killian. All the money raised will help Sean and his family with medical expenses, etc. while they go through this difficult time in trying to find Sean a donor, and hopefully, save his life.
I didn't take much pictures or video of the show itself because I don't want to be "that guy" blocking other peoples view of the stage (unlike many other idiots I saw doing) with my phone. I saw hordes of people in front of me holding their phones and ipads in the air to film the show. I kept having to find another spot in the crowd to watch because there would be a bunch of people in front of me blocking my view, as well as others. So annoying! I just came to watch and enjoy the show with my own eyes, not through a phone or an ipad. Besides that, it was an awesome night of VIO-LENCE... or the closest thing that the world will ever get to seeing that!
Here's PART 1:
-Killian On Command : An Evening Of Vio-Lence - Show Flyer and Poster (bought the poster at the show)
-Various Flyers from Vio-Lence shows from yesteryear (high quality scans printed on large poster boards - none of these I actually own)
Enjoy!
