touche... but how many times have you ever been to see either one?
I have no doubt you've seen Mastodon more times than both HW and EBS combined.

Heh, I've only seen Mastodon twice actually, and one was a short festival set. Admittedly, I've only seen EbS once, but I've seen HW about 5-6 times in the past year and a half.

hey I can't help it that HW is so good that you must see them time and time again. LOL.
and check it out - I finally figured out a way to drive up my post count... argue with people.
I never knew the secret before.I can;t blame you for going out to Athens to see your buds and check out Posehn. I've never seen him live, but hoping to change that myself someday.

The Professor was right
This bill sucks. And having Pestilence play a "reunion show" at a fest that Van Drunen will be in 2 bands yet he's not doing vocals for them is just a fucking insult.

That is a fairly good lineup. I know I'll keep it open as a possibility, mainly for Mayhem and Atheist. See where the rest of the announcements take us lineup-wise.
And this is one of the most ludicrous, absurd comments this forum has EVER seen.
There's some good 3 or 4 bands in the lineup, but now you're pushing.
Quoted for truth!
Make sure you check out Flesh Parade then. They were one of the best bands at the fest this year.
I'm kind of surprised at all of the negative feedback in this forum. I thought people would be a little more open-minded. I've been to 3 MDFs and have had a great time. They don't call it an underground metal "party" for no reason. If you're into extreme music, this lineup is badass. Pestilence, regardless of who's singing is worth the trip alone. Atheist is great live. Just because you haven't heard of a band, don't rule them out. I went to my first ProgPower just because Mercenary was playing. I ended up enjoying many other sets that weekend. Now I go to every ProgPower and have a great time at each one.

That's what I hear...a guy who I sort of know and posts on the message board for the local scene (the man behind Amoebic Dysentery) says that they're a really great band.
Atheist, Mayhem, and Hail of Bullets are the only ones I have interest with, but all the bands I don't know on the bill I will check out, because I have to check out almost every band I hear of. I wouldn't mind seeing today is the day though, especially with derek roddy being such a beast of a drummer.

if you know hail of bullets you should know and like pestilence and asphyx. Immolation is also rather awesome.
Pestilence and asphyx have been on my list of bands to check out. The reason I ran across hail of bullets is because of Swano being associated with the cd, I just wish Swano would of done some more guest vocals on it, and of course the production has Swano written all over it.
Roddy no longer drums for TITD. They're still a beast of a live band. I've seen General Surgery twice and they have torn it up both times. They are not meant to be taken seriously, but put on a hell of a live show.

im not sure if he sings for hail of bullets, but he sings for Asphyx and Pestilence. Van Drunen I think his name is
