wish they hadnt scheduled all the top bands unopposed, I definitely would like to have something to see other than Machine Head or Biohazard. But those early bands are so damn good

strongly considering leaving Sunday after Gatecreeper to go to a Janet Jackson concert down the road, which I just learned is $22.50 and has Ludacris opening

Yes, but theres a non-zero chance I dip out a little early to see all of Immolation. Their most recent album kicked ass

The Janet show isnt going to sell out so its going to be a game time decision

if it gets to Sunday night and were sick of metal and want to sit down at an amphitheater concert, well do it

You really never heard of Fear Factory or Anthrax? I thought they were huge names in metal.

Fear Factory is a band whose name Ive always seen show up on like Ozzfest and other big tours but Ive never heard them on the radio and Ive never met anyone who actually listens to them

As a metal fan I never found outside concerts being the best place to enjoy a metal band mainly because of the acoustics and the vocals you won't get anywhere near as clean as the studio which makes for a lot of incoherent growling and screaming.

This is inside a venue

i think the facility technically has 5 stages but theyre using one for meet and greets and one for the merch room

Definitely way more into Khemmis so its like ten minutes of Allegaeon then all of Khemmis

lots of schedule conflicts here that could have been helped by scheduling the side stages to go until 11pm

super lame that Revenge is unopposed bc theyre sketchy af

Man, this festival kicked ass

i was expecting to have complaints, but overall, it was fun as hell, and all the bands I saw ruled. Much better that expected.

plus, we went to the nearby casino after the last band tonight, and I won $2600, paying for the entire weekend and then some

So I got knocked on my ass in the circle pit Friday night, hit in the chest super hard by someone I assume was going the opposite direction (didnt really see it happen)

still hurting today so I went to the doctor and I have a possible sternum fracture

was it all worth it? well it was during Biohazard so probably not. Didnt hurt too bad during the festival either, probably from all the booze and adrenaline
