| _______________________________ [Feb 7,2014 1:57pm - xmikex ""] Let me guess... They're banking on 500 people being there so they're talking about renting the biggest club or function hall possible. Someone tossed out the idea of getting a national headliner to play it and then they decided to charge admission for it. Every butt dart band represented there asked to play it. No one who posts there has any interest in saying no or has ever booked a show so they've already promised 30 bands they could play. They don't have any contacts for any of these things and Nile has a message about this waiting in their spam FB email never to be read. Did I nail it? If not how far off am I? Congratulations MA Metalheads, you just booked another terrible marathon show. |

| _____________________________ [Feb 7,2014 4:50pm - Yeti ""] Once upon a time I knew some people who used to do this, but as mentioned above they were juggalos. They called them "mini-gatherings" which was really just 10-15 friends and their friends bands standing around talking about ICP. They had the same aspirations and attendance projections. |

| ____________________________________ [Feb 8,2014 11:09am - i_am_lazy ""] I think they think that just because there's 1000 "members" of the group that every single one of them will show up and ITLLBETHEBESTTIMEEVAR!11ONEONEONE |

Something like that would happen in a heartbeat in Europe, but you'd be EXTREMELY hard pressed to make something like that work in New England. |
| ___________________________________________ [Feb 8,2014 3:16pm - 37 shows, 1 grope ""] Cum'on guys, wouldn't it be great if there was some sort of bar/venue that would have some sort of metal night. You know, they could have shows or just metal DJ nights (MA Metalheads™ approved, of course) . I think it would really help the scene, because i'm so sick of a lack of local shows and I have so many gigabytes of metal on my hard drive. Maybe if it were on a Thursday, it could be called Metal Thursdays or something, wouldn't that be cool?! |
| _______________________________ [Feb 8,2014 3:30pm - KEVORD ""] ^ That. I was thrown out of MA Metalheads for mocking someone who said there were no local metal shows. That group is a bunch of overnighters and entry level metal fans. Clueless. |

| ______________________________________ [Feb 8,2014 4:35pm - HookedonMetal ""] In three or four years they'll either stop caring about metal altogether or they'll actually go on look past the national acts and start taking interest in more underground bands and shows. For the sake of the local scene, one can only hope more of them go in the latter direction than the former. Every time I've ever gone to a bigger show in the area though, I always see these metalheads I've never seen before in my life and it's kind of depressing. So sadly I'm not counting on it. |

| _________________________________ [Feb 9,2014 2:29pm - robotpie ""] They do indeed bring the lulz. That girl berating Mark & Mike about not booking usbm bands like Absu was hilarious. Hopefully some do leave their keyboard and actually get involved, and hopefully others don't. Corpse paint kid can just stay where he is, fucking shit up for slipknot or whatever. |
| _______________________________ [Feb 9,2014 2:58pm - KEVORD ""] Yeah, that girl was bitching that Absu, Nile, and some other band should play here a couple months after they had been here. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 10,2014 2:08pm - goatcatalyst ""] Book this party in my oven. |

| ___________________________________ [Feb 10,2014 2:37pm - Nash/nli ""] Haha. We've all become so old and bitter. Myself included. Back In 2004-2008ish this was an awesome place to find bands to join or book/get on shows, but the new people coming to this board need to stop it with the hopes and dreams already! you will indeed get pooped on. |

| ________________________________ [Feb 10,2014 4:26pm - xmikex ""] They have a very strict feelings in tact policy. This includes disagreeing with anyone, saying you dislike a band, and pointing out that the fat slob who berates everyone for not going to shows doesn't actually goto shows either and picked a fight with a guy half his size at the one show you did see him at. |
