Reggies October 1st saturday night.

 

[Diabolik]

got word from CAGE....they are playing an extended set.

Awesome!!! Helstar I've always wanted to see, but man, there are tons of shows coming in October. Fall always seems to be the best time of year for shows for some reason (at least for me).

 

[Jasonic]

Hell yes!!! Where did you hear about this?
I have just been getting into Helstar too.
Their new one sounds killer from the samples I have heard.

Wonder if MASSACRE RECORDS put this together.

DAMN!!!

 

[Diabolik]

no, this company called Mad Scientist. I guess they have one or two more bands and if any back out they have replacements all set in place. I guess this is going to be a yearly thing here.

This might get bigger than some even know.
Can't wait to see all of the people coming out of the woodwork to proclaim they have always been die hard trad metal fans.

Doubt it. It may do well, but I don't think it'll be overwhelmingly successful.

Cage was really boring at Progpower a couple years ago. I'll probably leave when they start. I recently picked up a couple Helstar albums Nosferatu and Distant Thunder and thought they were pretty solid. Never heard Black Widow or Furnace before.

 

[Vegetaman]

Helstar is the only band I know from the list ( I know -- please don't hit me >_< ), but they're quality.

 

[Palabra de Dios]

I disagree about Cage being boring at ProgPower. Maybe it's because I had wanted to see them for so long (since Darker than Black was "new")....but I thought they fuckin nailed it.

I thought they put in a pretty damn good set too. My only issue with them is at times they're being "TOO" Priestlike and it feels more like a cover band, even though it is different tunes.

Yeah, it was essentially a priest cover band. It was not the caliber of band I expect at Progpower. And I gave them a chance but each album and song sounded the same. It became painful to listen.

i saw CAGE at the Milwaukee metalfest....they were great. I cant wait for this show. Spread the word as much as you can....the more people the more of this type of show will happen.

 

[nomisofsiman]

So weird. Right as I clicked back into this, "Scarlet Witch" by Cage came up on shuffle.

it is a sign from the Metal Gods!!!!!!!

Oy vey.

 

[modernwizardry]

Maybe it was just the environment. I'll give them another chance. I remember one of the guitar players being totally ripped.

 

[Jasonic]

I will never forget Sean Peck at Milwaukee Metalfest schmoozing all around the vendor area, telling everyone about all the bands CAGE has played with.
Yeah, they were good live. I still need to get their stuff on disc.

Helstar is who I am most interested in...............so far.

 

[Palabra de Dios]

Sean is an....interesting guy. He's got a great voice, though, so Cage is cool in my book. Helstar interests me the most too, since I love the album "Nosferatu" so much, it'd be good to (hopefully) hear some of those tunes live! Gotta say, I'm really going to try to make this show, guys!

 

[Jasonic]

that would be awesome if you could make it.
