[Hitori]

where exactly is that taking place?

 

[Wolfman Von Jones]

New England

 

[rahvin]

New England

you say it as if it's a bad thing.

 

[MagSec4]

Arrrgghh, I'd love to go to the 3rd day ..if only they had squeezed Chimaira in it instead of the 2nd.

New England, for anyone curious, is the northeast part of the U.S. (All the states to the right of New York)
Basically crappy, coldass, boring places.

 

[King Chaos]

God damn it. I thought people were just giving England some C21st premodification, for the new generation. Never mind. Seeing that lineup has knocked years off my life. the Acacia strain, Ion Dissonance, throw down, Hatebreed and Unearth on the same day. you gots-ta be kidding me. Shame I dont live in Nu-England ey.

 

[Xzar]

Finland needs something like that too

Well atleast I'll be seeing DT at march, Tuska winter war here I come

No it doesn't.
You have all sorts of kickass festivals, Metal bands, and ..you know, saunas and such.
..ja perrrkele, this is probably the only good thing going for New England!

more information on these sites.

 

[Hitori]

yeah I know what new england is, I was just askng for a more specific location
... don't know why, as it's all too far anyways

 

[TheFourthHorseman]

Average festival at best as far as bands go, although I'll have to say that I don't know most of the bands. The hardcore ones don't interest me either. Dark Tranquillity and Strapping Young Lad would be cool to see...still, 25? more than Tuska tickets and less good bands.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

i'm going to be there, probably for just the last two days

 

[Dred]

im pissed im not going to be able to go. its so close i can taste it, but im stuck working all that weekend.


its possible i may be able to get out of working sunday to hit it up which would be nice, but im not going to get my hopes up.

 

[mentallic]

well i guess you will be missing an awsome festival.

 

[Dred]

i know i know . im hoping if i get to go sunday i can talk to some of my promoters through the radio station and get backstage...but im not going to count on it

 

[mentallic]

Promoters?!?! are you famous or something?

 

[ShadowLioness]

You know, I'm waiting for the whole roster to be released. Still haven't decided if I am going to go yet. I've never been on the east coast, so that would be an experience in itself. There are already a lot of decent bands playing...hmmmm.

 

[JESUSATAN]

The Metal Fest is a big load of crap. All it ever is is the same 50 shitty bands that always play, a bunch of douche bag hardcore kids and a handful of decent bands. They also always just take tours that are already coming to the area anyways and add them to the fest and cut set times. A few years back when Meshuggah was on a headlining tour the show played the fest and instead of Meshuggah headlining like they should have they got friggin Super Joint Ritual to headline and cut Meshuggahs set to about 35 minutes. This year I was excited as hell to see Dark Tranquillity headline on my birthday ( the 24th sunday night at the fest). But what do they do, they make Soilwork who is support for the Dark Tranquillity tour one of the headliners and knock DT way down the list and most likely they will only play for 30 minutes tops. That is bullshit in my opinion and now I have to drive at least 3 hours to conn to see them headline, which isn't a bad thing seeing DT twice in a short time but its still pretty lame. But I'm just bitter I suppose. Anyhow I wouldn't waste much money on this fest it really isn't worth it. Go the the Marlyand Death Fest if you want a killer show!
