WTF, I start a thread and PM everybody and somebody starts a thread and doesn't PM me?

K would probably want to go. I'll ask him. Are tickets still on sale?

[Insomnium]

Tickets should be available for everything but Thursday. I'm holding out as long as possible on buying my ticket. Want to make sure I can get a guarantee from someone to drive down with me.

So for now, I'm still a maybe.

I'm holding out for a bit too until I know if I'm going to South America for work or not.  Probably wont know that for a few more weeks.

I purchased my Sat/Sun passes last night.


What have I gotten myself into?

fucking sweet, eh?

i cannot wait. so many bands i do not know. i will put myself in your hands on which bands to see. you can be my heavy metal concierge. i will pay you and the mr. x with some pork from my private reserve and whisky.

[Xray the Enforcer]

Performance anxiety! It'll be easiest if I know which ones you do want to see, then I can craft some suggestions around that. I'll be posting my own "must see" list once I get it together.

[Xray the Enforcer]

So, do we have a headcount of who is going and on which days?

Mr. X & Xray -- Thurs-Sun
MercChef -- Fri-Sun
Kair -- Sat-Sun

[kairparavel]

Anyone else? Anyone?



Au secours...

[MercenaryChef]

au secours?

help?

no help will come. you are the one who volunteered to be part of this, my love!

[Xray the Enforcer]

We are the FEW. The PROUD. The STRONG. But never fear, Kair. One of my friends is also coming along for the sociological lulz -- the two of you can sit in the beer tent and freak-watch.

Also, don't forget to pack earplugs. Outside, it isn't so bad. But shows inside -- or standing near the front for the outside shows -- can get pretty loud.

This city is afraid of me. I have seen its true face. The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout "Save us!"... and I'll look down and whisper "No."

Is there a plan for a meetup outside the show? I'm not going, but I would like to see everyone.

Nothing solid yet, but looking at the schedule, it'll likely be lunch on Saturday or Sunday. I'm thinking that we should just all congregate at Alewife for lunch (say noon or 12:30) one of those days. It's within walking distance to the festival and they have an excellent selection of beers. There are tables enough for a group and the general pub ambience means that people can probably roll in whenever. I'll be headed to the fest at around 2:45pm each of those days.

[kairparavel]

We're in for lunch either day. Whatever works!

[Inigima]

I think I'm good for either as well.

[Inigima]

Chef proposes Saturday at ~12:30. This works for me if it works for you.

[Xray the Enforcer]

Works for us, too. See you on Saturday at 12:30 at alewife!

METALHEADS OF THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION:

I'm going to come up tomorrow.  I really want to see Electric Wizard, and really just rock out in general.  Mr. Chef is aware of my plans and I am staying at the same place for Sunday night.  I have to help a friend move tomorrow, but I expect to be in Baltimore by 5pm or so.  Hopefully a bit earlier.

One problem - tickets are not available online anymore.  I've been to enough metal shows in my day that I really, really don't expect for it to sell out compltely.  Especially on a holiday weekend.  However if any of you who are already there suspect that I will have problems if you buy me a ticket I swear to the gods of metal that I will pay you back upon arrival.  My hotel is booked.  My arrival is imminent.  You will get your money back + beers in interest.  Otterly Yours,

S John
