Just got back from this crazyass show at the Manhattan. Do yourselves a favour and check out this show if you like your music loud and chunky. They play next in Halifax. This was one of the more insane shows that I've been to. One guy in the pit smashed open his head on the stage floor during Iron Giant's set. One of the opening acts, Black Lungs is comprised of members of Alexisonfire and the Cancer Bats. Seriously, don't miss this show if you can help it!! ZZZZZ is a giant pussy! Twisted Evil

Iron Giant is a good eff'n band I seen them play with T.Starr @ The Igloo.. Theyre Craaaazy. And Cancer Bats are fk'n awesome too.. I havent heard of Black Lung though. Too bad I had to work, I would have liked to have seen the show.

And of course it wouldn't have been a true Iron Giant show without PJ getting naked on stage - which he did during the Cancer Bats set.

Yes, Iron Giant did play the Ozzy afterparty in both Moncton and Halifax. I'm not sure what you mean about CB playing Glace Bay and IG playing Sydney the same day. They're touring together throughout the Maritimes and playing the same shows.
