Hallows Eve cancelled

[Diabolik]

Due to reasons outside the festivals hands...Hallows Eve have pulled out of the festival. There are a few ways mike may go with who gets added. there is a link where people can vote...while the winner isnt the one playing but it gives mike a good idea of what people like...

who would you like to see....


before people make stupid post....

- no Euro bands....

- no bands that havent played in 20 years who are not active...like some old chicago bands that havent played since 85. These bands havent practiced, played together in decades...just not going to happen

- bands that would fit a co-headlining spot.

I'm not on Faceplant so I can't vote, but I would like to see Toxik or Twisted Tower Dire.

I recommended Solitude Aeternus for the following reasons:
1) US Band
2) Still active, but don't play out too often
3) Would be a great handcuff booking for the ARGUS Booking, and would get quite a few to "hop the fence"
4) A lot of people first discovered SA from Rob Lowe joining Candlemass and would be interested in seeing them

It's a tough spot to be in for sure.
At one point you can go more local and different style to save $$$ (IE - Maybe someone like The Chasm or Morid Saint). On the flipside, it's a co-headliner........

Would love to see Liege Lord, Toxik, Twisted Tower Dire, Solitude Aeternus, shit like that. The Chasm is an interesting idea, I'd watch em.

 

[Diabolik]

A few of these bands are now in talks actually last night...we shall see!!!!

TTD or Solitude Aeternus would make me happy in the pants.

I can tell you now that it isn't going to be either of those bands...I love TTD but they don't draw. Solitude would be very big actually but I tried selling that to mike last year and it didn't fly.

 

[Jasonic]

LOL- yeah,I know that with already having ARGUS, the likelihood of more doom is slim to none.

TTD would just be icing on the cake for folks already coming.
I agree though that they unfortunately prolly wouldn't be a deciding factor for many.

sadly TTD are not a draw. They deserve to be but the band for the co-headlining spot needs to have some drawing power.

Oh man Solitude Aeturnus again... That would be magical. But alas, not to be...

Still... Hmmm... Metal Church maybe? I don't know a lot of bands on that poll list.

won't be Metal Church...they were asked but were already planning the US tour so it didn't work out.

 

[nomisofsiman]

Yeah Metal Church wouldn't make sense since they'll be here less than two months before the fest.

They would for me. Are they really that much less popular than Hallows Eve?

a way different cost between the two

I wonder this as well. I know TTD doesn't draw that well but I don't remember many going nuts about Hallows Eve playing to be honest.

 

[J. Golden]

From what I have heard Solitude Aeturnus could not happen due to some in band issues. I would love to see them though, only chance I ever had I could not get a plane out of Mich cause they were snowed in. It would have been with King Diamon too.

were is Fifth Angel? Icon, Hirax.
It was mentioned co-headlining status, so that suggest that one guy from Hallows Eve and some dudes were high status. HAHA

Seduce

actually there was a bunch who bought tickets to see them. Even when I was handing out flyers they were the second most talked about band.
