MDF ROLL-CALL 2012

[Addo_Of_Nex]

I saw one guy selling it for $150 (though he made a separate thread selling it and he seems slightly flaky), and another person just made a post saying that they don't expect to get face value, but to just PM offers.

I listened to a bunch of Absu last night to get psyched for the Thursday show. FUCK YEA

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Eh, TBH I almost would rather just save my money. I paid only $135 for Kev's ticket and the idea of spending an additional 30-40 bucks just to see Agalloch play doesn't interest me (especially considering that Agalloch tours a hefty amount and all the cool bands eventually play in Chicago). I'll be seeing Autopsy like 3 weeks before in Chicago and I've seen Absu twice. Eh, I might snag a Thursday only pass if I can get one at a solid price.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Yeah, I wouldn't worry about it much.

Im stoked for the lineup Thursday, especially to see Eyehategod. I missed the last time they rolled through LA.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

EHG are actually one of the sludge bands I am least pumped for, haha. Can't wait for Cough, Rwake and YOB along with the cool groovy doom like Church of Misery and Electric Wizard.

The line-up really isn't all that good this year imo. Morbid Angel dubsteb headlining few doom metal bands. Autopsy and Suffo are pretty cool but those tour quite a lot don't they? I'm seeing Suffo this year too, but with Asphyx.

 

[Zephyrus]

Psyched for Agalloch. Hope the sound inside is good (for a change).

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

In defense of the lineup, it's very open-minded this year with a lot of very different bands.

Fixed.

Eh...Im not as stoked for these two than some of the other bands...Ive seen Suffocation like 4 times, and I just saw Morbid Angel last year.

They sounded fucking great at the Scion show in LA last year. Im happy to see them in a smaller more intimate setting.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Fixed.

Haha really? The newest Rwake and If You Walk Before You Crawl, You Crawl Before You Die are fucking great.

That is true yeah. I wouldn't expect Godflesh or Unsane there. I guess it's better this way than just having everything death metal or something.

Half joking. A buddy showed me a few songs of theirs and what he showed me I wasnt impressed at all. Well see what they bring to the table at MDF.

I was skeptical about the lineup at first because I am, in many ways, a bit of a purist faggot; but as time has pressed on I've found myself increasingly excited about more and more bands. I think it's just as strong as the previous three years, even if the only headliners I care about are Autopsy and Godflesh.

Purists leave before Morbid Angel dubsteb.

 

[Addo_Of_Nex]

I'm making special low-fi Morbid Angel shirts that ridicule them just for Saturday tbh.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Purists troll and heckle Morbid Angel in hopes of David and Trey crying on stage.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

There are a whole bunch of acts I'm psyched to see. I'll post my list soon... Can't wait til they announce the schedule so I can begin obsessing about how to most successfully spend my time.

So there is an exhibit on the 7th-8th centuries (Byzantium & Islam) going on at the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art. I would kill to go to this, and would have the opportunity to on the drive to or from MDF. Admission to the museum is $25. Kris and Grant et al may or will join me.

[Master_Yoda77]

I would love to go to that as well, but it's just not going to happen.
