The lights were out and the entire auditorium was in darkness when the feedback from the lead guitar rang across the huge stadium, and everyone began cheering. Gotthard ran onto stage with their long hair and typically metal outfits, and began playing their heavy metal/ hard rock music right away. They opened with Remember Me, the first song with Nic Maeder as their vocalist, and they had the audience on their side from the word go. The atmosphere was incredible, and we were all cheering and dancing along right away.
With 11 studio album recordings under their belt, I didn’t know how they were going to be able to pick a set list to please everyone, but they made the great decision of selecting songs from all across their careers, and played some awesome fits. They opened with tracks from Human Zoo, and journeyed through Domino Effect, Firebirth, and loads of other albums, before reaching BANG!, which had everyone going crazy, as it’s only ben performed a few times since its release.
The band members are insanely talented, and hearing their improvisations and collaborations that don’t appear on their recordings was incredible.
