Take Flight

THEY SAY THE METAL SCENE IN EAST LOS ANGELES HAS LONG SINCE DIED OUT.......WITH ONLY A FEW JUGGERNAUT METAL BANDS OUT THERE PUTTING IT DOWN IT WAS GOOD TO SEE THE PRIDE OF EAST LOS ANGELES SETTING THEIR MARK IN METAL AND SENDING THE ROARING MESSAGE "WE ARE TAKE FLIGHT......IN METAL WE TRUST......COMING OUTTA EAST LOS ANGELES..." AS SOON AS THE FIRST CHORD CAME OUTTA ESTEBAN'S GUITAR, I KNEW THAT TO WITNESS TAKE FLIGHT TONIGHT IS TO BASK IN WHAT METAL FUNDAMENTALLY IS....., RIFFS, SICK SOLOS, FAT BASS LINES AND THE SCREAM OF A WARRIOR FRONTMAN WHOS VOCAL CHORD AILMENT WAS NOT NOTICED BY THE DOZENS OF HEADBANGERS IN THE CROWD......MADNESS SOON TOOK OVER THE FLOOR WITH FANS SHOWING THEIR UNDYING SUPPORT FOR LOCAL BANDS AND THEIR COMMUNITY.....THIS WAS NOT ONLY TAKE FLIGHT FIRST OFFICIAL GIG WITH A FRONTMAN, BUT A CULMINATION OF MANY YEARS OF FRUSTRATION AND RELENTLESS EFFORTS TO PUT TOGETHER A METAL MASTERPIECE THAT WILL LEAD THE NEW ERA OF METAL IN EAST LOS ANGELES........I MYSELF WILL ICE DOWN ALL MY BATTLE WOUNDS FROM TONIGHT FOR A WHILE...BUT NONETHELESS IT WAS ALL FOR THE LOVE OF METAL.......FOR THOSE WHO DONT KNOW TAKE FLIGHT.... SEE FOR YOURSELF AND YOULL KNOW WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT.......LONG LIVE METAL!.....LONG LIVE TAKE FLIGHT!!!
