[Will Bozarth]

weeeeeeeeeeeee

 

[KaptainKrude]

Seems like things are off to a promising start. Curious to see how CRJ will be rounding out the lineup and hope the confirmations and announcements come soon so that momentum and buzz continue to build.

That and MWC is giving me too much of a Disturbed vibe but that'll change soon enough.

???
Huh?

Congrats to my boys in MWC and the rest of the bands.
Admittedly, I'll have to do some research aside from the locals, but looking forward to a great show!

Edit: Holy Shit! Just checked out KIUAS....Epic.

vocally there are times he sounds close to what Disturbed's lead singer does in his monotone.

Everything else is good. I just need to pound into my head that hes not gonna sound like hes coughing in between verses

MWC gives you a Disturbed vibe??? Whatcha talkin' bout Willis?

I'm exciting about sharin' a stage with ya, dude! I still haven't had a chance to catch the mighty Novembers Doom live yet.

So hard to believe when its listed as an influence?:Smug:
BTW they must love Metal Church they listed it twice.

I look forward to this band.

It might be listed as an influence, but I don't hear it.

the vocal line 'survival' in the Through Crimson Shores song along with some other parts give me that vibe. The other songs don't.

How about a pre-pre-show? Opeth/Enslaved is gong to be at the House of Blues on the 6th.

Sounds good to me.

That would have been a great Friday or Saturday night headlining combo for the fest. I'm curious if CRJ had inquired/tried to get this for the festival.

Of course...unfortunately just wasn't in the cards. But no worries...

Hopefully some of the potential out-of-towners might find it attractive too...esp since the 4 days combined will still be cheaper than some other fests around the country.

Any update on the remaining four bands?

 

[MetalSpice]

Ah....the '80's.

It makes me sad that one of the first guys that I had my first fantasy about, turned out to look like this 20 years later:

Soon...very soon...and will probably announce them one or two at a time. Please be patient.

Now THOSE are the perfect before and after photos to show the kids!!

"Here ya go girls and boys......this is the reason why you SHOULDN'T do drugs or drink alcohol!!"

Nothing like seeing an ugly dude get even uglier over time (sorry Amber )
