I love Cradle, I live for Cradle...
They are my love for 5 years now, well I started listening metal music with them...
First album that I heard was "Dusk and her embrace" and that was enought to me to start a great journey.
And the Day had come, the Day that I have waited for 5 years, Cradle of Filth are in Croatia...
29.11.2006
We (me, my best friend Matea, Krdjo and Krolo) went to Zagreb by car (Krolos' father drove - a man is a legend) from Split (which is about 300 km) about 5 hours before concert (Well, that is a long story, Matea had to work that mourning, and I had lessons on college which I couldn't skip)...
And there we were, in car driving 160 km/h listening Cradle of Filth... (the night before concert I had barely had any of sleep)
So we are there in Boogaloo in Zagreb...
So many people, so many awesome cloths, corpes paint... We are waiting close to doors, and waiting, seen some of our friend from Split, but we couldn't listen to them because it was all "OMG Cradle, OMG COF, OMG Dany..."
We even bet which songs would be played (hehe, I won!!!).
And we are waiting... (concert started at 9:30 PM, an hour later then it was planed)
The doors were opened...
The rush of people running towards the fence...
Unfortunatly, I wasn't lucky, to be in a first row.
And it started...
I was in a forth row, trying to get closer...
Noctiferia began to play
They were ok! Just warmed up the crowd...
And then came Death star, all little gothic girls run towards them (that crowd brought me closer to stage, just infront of vocal). And there I was, surrounded by gothic - emo girls which were screaming and tryin' to touch vocal...
I pointed THEE finger and were screaming "FAGAT FUCK OFF!!!"
And then the fucking fagat undressed his shirt, his body was covered with spangels, and was so close to me, yuk...
I just couldn't wait for them to get lost...
And finally, COF came, the crowd by the fence were stiffen that I couldn't breath, couldn't move my arms, and yes they had sent me backwards in third row...
A second later I was in forth row...
But I got mad, and I returned to third row, and how I returned there HOLE ROW FELL just like domino effect. Krolo, who was behind me, grabbed me, and saved me...
But how he have returned me to forth row, that row had fell also, and I run to my first position.
To far from Daniel, unfortunately...
Anyway, concert was awesome, phenomenal...
They finished the concert with song From Cradle To Enslave
OH, YEAH, I caught the SETLIST!!!
Well, my only regrets with this concert are that they have played way too many stuff from thornography instead of some great old songs, and that I have witnessed Deva's extermination of a good songs like Nymphetamine...
For the end of my entry I would say, that COF isn't what it was ten years ago, I even heard some rumors from the keyboard girl that this is their last album and that they are falling a part...
But I don't believe this rumors until I see that with my own eyes. Well, I didn't have a chance to take a picture or to talk to Daniel because I had to return to college...
But, if COF is ever coming back near Croatia (well, Daniel said that they are...) I will go again, because I will always remember COF with good songs, and they are my favorite band, no matter what they do next...
