Ufomammut with Unsea
I didn't go the the Tuscon show, I went to the Philadelphia show. I just liked this poster.

I had never even heard of Unsea before this show and they were amazing. I'd describe them as somewhere between Earth and Electric Wizard but with black metal vocals. Very, very good. I was duly impressed.

Then Ufomammut, on their first North American tour incidentally, took the stage and blew my fucking mind right out the back of my head. I can't even begin to describe how awesome they were, they managed to sound totally different than they do on their albums yet absolutely fantastic nonetheless. They were so unbelievably tight and so incredibly heavy my brain struggled to even process the awesomeness that was taking place before me. Really, it was incredible, one of the best shows I've been to in the past decade. 3/4 of the members of Unsea even came up where we were standing and starting going nuts during Ufomammut's set, their bass player going off telling me how amazing he thought Ufomammut were. It's rare that I say this, but I really didn't want the set to end, I could have listened to Ufomammut for many, many more hours. In the end, all I could do was go shake Urlo's hand and say, "Amazing! Amazing!"
