SACRIFICE Frontman: Reunion Concert Was 'Possibly The Best Show This Band Has EVER Performed'
September 25, 2006For the first time in 15 years, Canadian thrash metal legends SACRIFICE reunited for one night only as headliner of Day Of The Equinox II festival, which took place on Saturday, September 23 in Toronto, Ontario at the Opera House. The band's original lineup of guitarist/singer Rob Urbinati, guitarist Joe Rico, bassist Scott Watts and drummer Gus Pynn performed tracks from their classic metal releases: "Torment In Fire" (1986),"Forward To Termination" (1987) and "Soldiers of Misfortune" (1990).
Urbinati issued the following post-performance recap yesterday (Sunday, Sept. 24): "The day after. What a fucking metal show. No explosions, no fancy light rig, no huge backdrop...just SACRIFICE, over 700 metal fans, and an insane amount of voltage. That was possibly the best show this band has EVER performed. Six months of anxiety exploded from the opening riff of 'Forward To Termination' and the rage didn't stop until the final chord of 'Reanimation'. Thank you everyone for your accolades and we are pleased that no one was disappointed."
