Arguably one of the biggest and coolest fests in the US happening this year. Hope to see a decent number of metal brothers there; are you excited? How far are you traveling in from? What bands do you want to see most?
I’ll be there! I’m mainly there for Liege Lord (first time seeing them!), Triumph of Death, Trypticon (doing a Celtic Frost set), Razor, Possessed, Demon, Satan, Riot City, Helstar (after-party), Vio-Lence, Brocas Helm and so many others.
Besides the bands, there’s so many people to meet, merch to see, and partying to be had. Be sure to book your stay at the Heights House which is the premier pre- and after-party hotel.
I'll be there of course. First time travelling across the country for a show and first festival I've been to. Most looking forward to Celtic Frost and Hellhammer since they were my favorite bands for the longest time. Ross the Boss is gonna be another highlight since I'm dying to hear some classic Manowar tracks. Of course Razor is another draw, especially seeing them in a crowd of people that will go insane for them. Lots of great bands playing!
I am a little disappointed that Destruction cancelled because I was looking forward to seeing them in a crowd that gave a shit (There were like 30 people in the venue when I saw them in Cleveland), but maybe this is an opportunity to brush up on Vio-Lence again.
Ill be there comin from wisconsin. The whole damn fest is stacked excited for most everything except haunt but the double dose of warrior is what im mostly excited for! Gonna be there for the vader show the day before as well.
I went last year and it was a blast, best US Metal Festival by far!!! ... Sadly I don't think I can't make it this year since I'm going to the 70000 Tons of Metal Cruise next week... But certainly it is a Blast!!!!
Yep! So fuckin’ lame! I’m bummed, but there’s nothing that can be done. They told my friend that they overbooked and that some of the rooms were under construction. I’ll still be heading that way to hang out before and after the show.
Yeah same here, maybe we will stumble across each other on our way to the and from the hotels haha. Was told that we where basically getting an upgrade but ain’t nothing to do at the downtown branch lol
I believe, most were relocated to Cambria Hotel. That’s where I’ll be at. I’m sure we’ll cross paths. I’ll be the guy sporting a black vest with a Show No Mercy back patch. Heights House is a 10 minute drive from Cambria. We can all always split Uber rides.
I am CHAD THUNDERCOCK, I have a mullet, and I will be wearing my NWOTHM vest, with a Traveler bootleg backpatch, and a Haunt back shape above it. Beware, I am armed and dangerous...
Hey, we gotta get a T SHIRT SLAYER meet up going one of the festival nights. Somewhere in the venue, or an after party or some shit. I'm tottally down and game for any meet up we wanna get going, I wanna see if we can get everyone in this thread to meet up!
Greatest metal show in the United States, pretty close to a European style metal festival. Met tons of cool new people and friends from all over the world. The metal market outside the venue had tons of cool stuff (which I'll probably post my scores from), and the lineup was nonstop incredible talent. Hoping next year's will be just as great
