Day 2 picked up exactly where Wednesday left off — no warm-up needed.
Calva Louise and Kublai Khan TX opened the day with fire, the latter turning the pit into pure controlled chaos. Gatecreeper brought suffocating death metal heaviness that cleared the lungs and the mind.
Ice Nine Kills delivered one of the most theatrical sets of the day — horror-soaked, tight, and wildly entertaining. Rival Sons shifted the mood with raw, soulful rock that felt like a welcome breath of air between the heavier acts.
The crown of the evening went to Black Label Society — Zakk Wylde and crew were simply unstoppable. Loud, heavy, and completely in their element.
