Yeah, it went down well on Tuesday. Surprised to see two ballads though but they were both excellent

It's a classic in the making. I'm seeing them again tonight. Eric mentioned to me on Tuesday night they will be paying High Noon at some point on the tour, so fingers crossed it's tonight.

Enjoy, they were excellent last night in Bristol

Matthew @funkynoise74.bsky.social · 4d

I'm there Friday as well to review the gig. They were all excellent last night, Testament played a mix of old and new. I asked Eric if he'll play High Noon off the new album as it's out on Friday, so fingers crossed. They'll probably be hanging out at the Krobar after the show
