We wanted to play the Northern Lights festival this year very badly, and now knowing that you guys are going to be there too, it's a real shame that we can't. Oh well, if they can't squeeze us on this year, there's always next year. Here's hoping! I love Toronto, playing there rules!
Yeah honestly, I don't really know what the reason is for the long delay with NEMHF, but I'm guessing that with it being such an incredibly popular fest now, there's probably many more requests from bands and labels for space on the fest, and even with three days now, it's probably a real headache trying to get the logistics all figured out. I can surely understand that. Still though, the reality of it is that most bands and labels really needed to be given a yes or no answer by now, since plane fare, hotel accomodations, etc., really would need to be booked immediately. I'm still keeping up hope that something will work itself out with this fest and us playing it, but it isn't looking good so far. Which is a shame because every experience I've had playing in New England has been fantastic. Some of my best ND memories are related to playing in Worcester and other parts of N.E.
