Converge almost didn't open for Meshuggah. When Tomas Haake (Meshuggah's drummer) came down with an illness that postponed the original tour dates, Converge weren't able to make the rescheduled ones. Whatever miracle happened, they were able to make it and play alongside Torche.

I always enjoy watching Converge but this show was a treat as I've always wanted to see Meshuggah live. Before this date was announced, I was going to see them in Silver Spring, MD. With Norfolk, VA in play, I knew I could record with my external mic and dumped the Silver Spring tickets online.

I shot this from the balcony about ten feet away from where I shot my CHVRCHES video. I got to capture the P.A. sound and my camera captured the whole stage.

If you read my Cave In video comments, you know I've known Nate Newton during my Norfolk hardcore scene days. I had a good chat with him outside while waiting for entry and asked about mutual friends. It was good to see Nate playing the hometown crowd in one of its coveted venues.
