It’s going to be a busy week for people in the San Francisco Bay Area with lots of bands to go around.
Thursday the 25th has Within Temptation’s return to the city at the Regency Ballroom. They are backed by Amaranthe.
Friday the 26th gives you two options: A Day to Remember, Motionless in White, Bring Me the Horizon, and Chiodos at the San Jose Event Center. Amon Amarthe is paired with Sabaton down in Santa Cruz at The Catalyst.
Saturday the 27th gives you a second chance to see Amon Amarthe and Sabaton up in Sacramento at Ace of Spades.
Sunday the 28th has Sonata Arctica, Delain, and Xandria at the Regency Ballroom. A solid power metal package. Both Delain and Xandria are female-fronted and mesh well with Sonata Arctica’s demographic.
