We were in the 17th row next to the soundboard when Graveyard kicked things off. Hailing from Gothenburg, Sweden, where heavy metal still sings the blues, they were the only band on the bill that I had not seen before.

O Sesc Pompéia já é um palco de destaque, mas com os meninos o que aconteceu foi uma catarse.
Valeu muito, Julito!!!
