Suicidal always brings a surprising amount of energy to the show. They shocked me and pretty much stole the show back at Orion Fest in 2012. These festival sets are a greatest hit parade and the crowd loved it.
Orion was such a great festival. I got to see Roky Erickson, Volbeat, Ghost (in the daytime!) along with Metallica playing RTL and Black album in their entirety. The surprise of the weekend for me was this set. Suicidal played the smallest stage and there had to be 10,000 people there. It just went back for miles. I was pretty close, so I was getting smacked around a bit. Also, my arm was super tired so I did not film the entire set. Robert Trujillo makes a surprise appearance and plays on ST and Infectious Grooves songs. For Paul Piazza and Kim Cook (because she was there, but missed this set!)
I made a mistake yesterday- I assumed that suicidal only played Ruthie’s once. They played at least 3 times. After some detective work, we think that the suicidal show I posted yesterday as 4/18/86 is probably 2/15/85. Dan Hague already posted 4/18/86 from Chris Dodge’s collection and it is a different show. This setlist leans heavily toward the 1st LP, and someone yells “play some possessed” repeatedly at about the 33min mark. Possessed opened the 2/15/85 show, and the ST song “Possessed to Skate” was written, but it seems to have different lyrics/different name. So, 90% sure it is 2/15/85.
