Hangar 18 live at Vinny's Bar
Bakersfield, CA
June 18, 2004

Hangar 18 hit the road in search of new territory to rock and ended up at Vinny's Bar in the desert city of Bakersfield!

Friday night traffic was a little rough, including a fatality accident that delayed the band by an hour. And so, by the time they arrived at Vinny's Bar, Hangar 18 was more than ready to bang out their aggressions with an old school Megadeth set.

 

Flying Fros are an expected part of a Hangar 18 show.

Dave Scott Chedrick Samuelson looks like he's pondering nature behind his drumkit with the huge mountain painting on the wall. You can almost smell the pines.

William "Fro Mustaine" Rustrum, with a bizarre expression, towers over Melanie "Mellefson" Sisneros.

More quiet pondering deep in the woods, guitarist Marty "Vic" Doty breaks the silence with the opening riff to "Holy Wars".

Fist raised, Fro Mustaine sings about his darkest hour.

Vic and Mellefson share a moment.
