Steve Grimmett’s Grim Reaper, the revamped version of ’80s British metal band Grim Reaper started their Norh American tour on June 10th at Saint Vitus Bar in Brooklyn New York, followed by a 2nd show at the same venue the following night.

Opening bands for the show was Iron Force and Fantom Warior. Original Grim Reaper guitarist Nick Bowcott who started the band in 1979 was suppose to play the show but broke his hand and could not perform.

The venue was packed with fans, some who were seeing the band for the first time as the band has not been to the US East Coast for over 25 years. The band performed songs from their 1980’s albums and forthcoming album From Hell.  When the last song “See you in Hell” started, some fans could not control themselves and jumped on stage to sing along with the band.

The set list:
Rock You To Hell
Night of the Vampire
Lust for Freedom
Wrath of the Ripper
Now or Never
Fear No Evil
Liar
From Hell
Never Coming Back
Lay it on the Line
Rock me till I Die
Matter of Time
