At times obstacles get in our way to do something as simple as assisting to the performances of those bands we love and adore can be. Obstacles like exams, work, parents, age, money, etc. which make us renounce to the opportunity of listening to great bands live. It has happened to me with a few bands (I say few bands because my country has not been graced with the visits of many bands), bands like Hatebreed, Six Feet Under, Soulfly, Megadeth, Iron Maiden (well, I wasn't even listening to Metal when they got here but I will blame my ignorance for missing them then lol), Judas Priest, among others.

Here you can share with your fellow metalstormers your sorrow, your frustration of missing those concerts. Do not forget to tell us why you missed them.

As for me, the last concert I missed was Dream Theater playing at our capital. Why did I miss these Progressive Metal deities? I had no way of getting into San Juan that night so I had to miss it.

Yesterday, I missed Dark Moor with Ellipsis (I planned to go mainly for them), Auspex and Hellixxir, due to too much drinking the night before, resulting in the biggest hangover I ever had. The headache was so strong I could hardly open my eyes the whole day. So a 1.5-hour train ride, beers with my brother and loud metal didn't exactly look too sexy in the light of the headache. I had a miserable day at home instead.

Moonsorrow, Korpiklaani, Suidakra, Equilibrium, Skyforger, Eluveitie, Heidevolk, Waylander, Wolfchant, Minas Morgul, Helrunar and Kivimetsän Druidi, all playing at a festival where I could have been right now if I hadn't that exam on Thursday and no time at all to learn for it during the week

we missed Dimmu Borgir in Paris because it was too late when we knew they giged, and on the 31rd of October we missed Dark Tranquility because they just didn't performed at L'Elysees Montmartrein Paris:hopeless:

That festival had great bands! Too bad you couldn't go. I couldn't see "Swallow The Sun" yesterday because of tests too.

You must feel very bad, missing all these great bands...

Nah, I'm being cruel, but it was one hell of a line up...

According to the schedule Eluveitie have just started their set two minutes ago. Definitely my favorite band out of all those. I'd sooo die to be there right now... *slitswrists*

I missed the Black Crusade.
I thought it might have been during my Year 12 exams.
By the time I realised it wasn't it was too late and I CBF too.

Now that i missed it i'm disappointed....

Missed Skid Row on Sunday. Mainly because for me, Skid Row without Sebastian Bach is not really Skid Row. Plus their latest album sucks really bad. And the end of the year is gonna be really heavy, metally speaking, with a shitload of shows I don't want to miss. So I'm saving up for them

Damn it was fast replay but such good line up, IMO it was best fest inthis year , in other some bands fall out but this was 95% perfcet , maybe like Ragnarock where Prom was but IMO this wa smuch better

I missed Alabama Thunderpussy and Firebird (Bill Steer of Carcass's southern rock band) in a small club because I lost my fucking bank card and didn't have cash for the ticket. I'm all the more pissed off as the price was only 10? and I probably will never be able to catch them again.

Watain and some more obscure bands I never heard about last month in Belgrade, I don't remember why, it was bad weather I think, usually that wouldn't stop me, but I am not a fan of those bands really, maybe it was cause of money, that could be a reason too, really don't remember.

Enslaved last Friday, I already had the ticket, I had the flu the day before and it got so bad on Friday,, I had to skip it,,

It really sucks when the show is a go, you have the ticket, the weather is great, the bands are awesome, but you get sick!
