The HU

They sang for 45 minutes as the opening act. There wasn't anything wrong but they didn't really catch fire. They ran through their songs, yelled a few phrases in English (their songs need subtitles on a screen somewhere), then that was it. Closer-up, they were more fun to watch, but further away, very little energy was projected. The guy next to me said they've had basically the same act for 5-6 years now; they need to change it up at some point and I agree. The throat singing, the lyrics in Mongolian, the cool outfits and instruments are all good but - now what? The difference between them and the main band, Iron Maiden, was astonishing. Iron Maiden fairly poured out energy and their stage presence was arresting.
