Does anyone know of an easy way to see what's going on in Europe this summer?

[JayKeeley]

I'm going to be in London this July (with an open week between July 16th to the 20th). Anyone know of what's going on in Europe that week?

I remember seeing a site once which listed all the music fests for the summer, all in one convenient webpage, but I don't remember what that was.

Otherwise, post chicks in thongs or something.

Is that Erik dude ever still involved in any Lethal-related business?

Awesome, Mike!

Is that Erik dude ever still involved in any Lethal-related business?

Involved: yes
Actual band member: kinda no

He's written at least one song that will be on the album and has done guest geetars and vocals every now and then even since he moved to Piteå, as well as being the sound guy for the latest recording session, and he'll move back to Umeå the same weekend as that gig...

I was looking around myself what was going on this summer festival-wise earlier today. Wikipedia is useful because there's plenty of info about each festival (previous line-ups etc.) - metal festivals & festivals by country. Bloodstock festival is on early July by the way, although before your "open week".

For a UK gig guide, I use the Terrorizer site, although I'm sure there's better resources available. I just haven't looked. It's a bit early to be looking for July time though.

What an awesome site

So Mike, is that a festival your playing? That's one helluva lineup withjust Satyricon and Entombed you've listed!

It is, complete lineup as follows:

Satyricon
Soilwork
Hardcore Superstar
Entombed
Savage Circus
Pain
Heed
Enter The Hunt
Freak Kitchen
Hellfueled
Assailant
Dream Evil
Persuader
Lesra
Final Crap
Destynation
Live Elephant
6:th Awakening
Taedeat
My Own Grave
Apostasy
Lethal
Daemonicus

...thus making the crap/great reatio horrible. Even the best of those actually have little hell mike drawing power to be honest (save lethal of course, probably the band with most hell mike drawing power ever, never missed one of their gigs ever)

There's no info on Lethal despite me sending it to Jens ages ago, methinks he's a lazy bastard but at least he agreed that they had too little öld terror on there

No problem. Slow day at work. I had time to look up the shows (not that it took a long time).

What an awesome site

Yes it is. I lost the url once and it took me forever to find it again. Kept thinking it had a different name.

So I was looking at the UM Calendar feature and relaized this can be updated by ANY member ... yet nobody uses it.

So I just added the Giant Squid show in NYC on 3/31 ...

Might be a good idea to spread the word about it and make it really active.
