Who should headline CTMetalfest?[views:10110][posts:124]____________________________________ [Jul 10,2005 1:27pm - metaldave ""] The Connecticut Metalfest is coming up in a few months, who should be the headliner? |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 10,2005 1:33pm - anonymous ""] i would be very surprised if Beck doesn't headline |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 10,2005 2:12pm - AUTOPSY_666 ""] No hardcore bands would be terrific! |

| _____________________________________ [Jul 10,2005 2:21pm - AUTOPSY_666 ""] Probably all metalcore screamo bands. |

| _______________________________________________ [Jul 10,2005 2:40pm - coldnorthernvengeance ""] Get Necrophagia to play it!!! |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 10,2005 2:47pm - metaldave ""] I'm just guessing here, but I'd assume that the headliner/headliners will be booked first before the other bands are. |
| __________________________________________ [Jul 10,2005 2:55pm - dwellingsickness ""] HBBSI needs to play this |
| ________________________________________________________ [Jul 10,2005 3:12pm - ryan from HBBSI never logs in ""] get in contact with me. im from stafford spgs up on the border and i can help you get some bands on this locally and further out too my aim is RELAYforDEATH |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 10,2005 3:17pm - BornSoVile ""] metaldave, are you booking this, do you know who is? i need a contact, wicked. btw, GORATORY would be a perfect headliner for this. drop me a line please, odiumvile@hotmail.com |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 10,2005 4:06pm - metaldave ""] No, I'm not booking it, I'm not sure who is. However, rumor has it that bands being considered as a headliner so far include Beyond the Embrace, Suicide Dream, and Fates Warning. But, if there's enough clamor on rttp for other candidates, whoever's in charge might catch wind of it and consider those bands as well, after all a LOT of people in the metal scene check in here from time to time. |
| ______________________________ [Jul 10,2005 4:57pm - BSV ""] ugh, they could do better than that! I don't know how well this can do, it's 2 months away and apparently nothing is booked. |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 10,2005 5:20pm - metaldave ""] Don't know about that, if they're booking bands over the next couple weeks, seems to me that would still leave another two months after that to promote the show. Any one of those rumored possible headliners would draw very well in CT given that much time to promote, not counting what fourteen support bands would bring in on top of that. But hey, if you don't like those bands, suggest your own headliners, that's what this thread is for! (The bands I mentioned are only rumors anyway, I could be totally wrong) |
| ________________________________________________________ [Jul 10,2005 5:28pm - ryan from HBBSI never logs in ""] i thought beyond the embrace always fell under nu-metal |

| ______________________________ [Jul 10,2005 5:54pm - blue ""] raising kubrick wouldnt hurt either..... but if beyond the embrace, suicide dream or fates warning are the headliners, consider the fest far from a success. |
| ___________________________________________ [Jul 10,2005 6:30pm - ravenoussquirrel ""] OK, all the bands suggested above are really good, but I think there needs to be a reality check here. If the "rumored" headliners are truly being considered, those are bands that can easily draw a few hundred people in CT. But the bands being suggested here would draw AT MOST 40 - 50 people (and that's being generous). If the person/people booking this thing were to catch wind of this thread and listen to our suggestions, they would have to be crazy to take that kind of trade off. Despite the fact that the ctmetalfest page makes the guy sound like he's in it for the music (very cheap tickets, no metalcore), renting out such a big venue requires a headliner that can really draw if the show is to just break even. Sorry, I'm not trying to be a dick, just being realistic. |

| ______________________________ [Jul 10,2005 7:01pm - nate ""] And I agree with that squirrely guy to an extent... Out of the "rumored" headliner list above Fate's Warning would draw the most, I don't see Beyond The Embrace putting them over the top to pay the venue off. |

I have been to this venue before, it's a good spot, and the sound there is awesome. I don't know if there's ever been a "festival" there before, but it's a good place for one because there are a couple different ways to set things up. The shows I've gone to have used the smaller set up which holds roughly 300 people, but the Pavilion also opens up to a huge field that could probably hold another couple thousand people and their cars. Personally, being from CT myself, I'm inclined to agree that this state sucks and people here don't give a fuck, so I think the smaller set up is much more realistic. But I'd love to be proven wrong. Does anyone have contact info for whoever's booking this yet? |

| __________________________________ [Jul 11,2005 12:52pm - mike f ""] ravenoussquirrel said:If the "rumored" headliners are truly being considered, those are bands that can easily draw a few hundred people in CT. partially true, but somewhat exaggerated. beyond the embrace got their big break opening for opeth at the palladium and have played there since, which gives them a foothold in northeast ct, but i'd say with good promotion they could bring in 100 - 150 people tops. i don't understand why there being called nu-metal by the way, they have clean parts, harmonies, solos. nu-metal is just talentless noise, korn and all things descendant. suicide dream did not open for poison it was bret michaels, but the 1000 people figure is true, according to their bio anyway. they've also opened for a shitload of other nationals at the webster in recent months (entombed, overkill, crowbar), and no one does that at the webser unless they sell a ton of tickets each time. based on that i'd guess sd could bring in a hundred people or more, considering this is in their back yard. fates warning has been an established prog metal band for years, plus they're from ct originally. but, it's always hard to say how many people will come out prog metal bands, even when they're well known. fates has potential to draw the most people (200 - 300), but in a way they're also the biggest risk because older fans are unreliable, and a lot of younger fans won't know who they are. this will probably come down to who asks for how much money. |

Although I have to give them credit for not automatically putting themselves in as the headliner just because they can, the fact that other bands are being considered as headliners means SD is putting the metalfest's interests ahead of their own, good for them. |

True, but they shouldn't feel obligated to disqualify themselves from the running for that reason either, since they are a legitimate draw in that area as mike f. pointed out. I second votes for Leukkorhea, Catalyst, HBBSI, Abhorred, Teratism, Anoxia, and Unleashed. Even if the headliner slots fill up with bigger local draws, they should be considered for other slots at the metalfest. |

| ___________________________________ [Jul 16,2005 4:18pm - ShadowSD ""] WOW. I don't know how word about this spread so quickly (I only posted the ctmetalfest page less than a week ago), but I've been bombarded by phone calls/e-mails over the last few days from bands wanting to get on this. I guess I can't complain, I'm glad the word about the fest is getting out so quickly, and I appreciate all the suggestions made so far. I figure I might as well put everything out in the open at this point, that way everyone knows what to expect before contacting me. Right now, I'm looking to get between 1 - 3 headliners. A headliner would be a band that can guarantee at least 150 people. I know that's a high number, but I really want this to be successful. (I won't even put Suicide Dream in as one of the headliners unless I'm sure we can guarantee at least that number) So far I've pursued the following avenues: I've e-mailed Testament's management, asking what kind of pay guarantee they'd want, assuming they can do the date. Testament had actually been in negotiations with The Webster Theatre in Hartford, CT about playing a show there in September, but they were unable to come to an agreement (I know this because we often play with nationals there, and we were promised a slot with Testament when they came around, so I was constantly keeping tabs on the show with the guy who does booking at The Webster). However, Testament has since booked dates Japan the weekend before the 24th, and dates in Mexico (if I remember correctly) the weekend after, so scheduling may be an issue. Also, a buddy of mine knows Rob Thorne from Sacred Oath, who is good friends with Fates Warning, so I'm trying to contact them through that avenue. In the meantime, I sent an e-mail to Fates through their website, mentioning Rob's name as a reference. Also, Metal Fortress DJ Chrissy Root, who posted a glowing review of our band's last show, recently did an interview with the lead singer from Nevermore. I've asked her to get me a phone number so I can get in touch with their management as well. Out of the bands suggested to me so far, those are the only ones I'm sure would bring in 150+ people to CT. Of course, if anyone wants to debate me on that, I'm totally willing to listen, and I'll gladly consider other headliners as well. Regardless of the number of headliners, there will be fourteen support bands. The way it's shaping up, about half of them will be from within an hour of the venue, and the other half will be from MA, RI, and Southwestern CT. The seven bands within an hour of the venue will have to guarantee selling a minimum of thirty tickets to be put on the show, and the seven bands coming from further away will have to guaratnee selling a minimum of twenty-five tickets to be put on the show. 7 * 30 + 7 * 25 = 385 tickets minimum, so even if I can only get one headliner despite my best efforts, that will equal a minimum crowd of over 500 throughout the day/night, which means that every band playing should have a crowd of at least 250 watching them. That's great exposure for everyone involved, plus all support bands will make a minimum of $100 -$150. I've had most of the support bands handpicked since the beginning, but I am still taking suggestions on a the remaining slots, and I've contacted a few of the bands here that have been mentioned a lot (Cryptic Warning; tried to contact Catalyst but myspace was being gay and their contact page doesn't work, please post an e-mail address or phone number; also want to get in touch with HBBSI if there's an e-mail or phone number, I don't have AIM) Thanks again for all the suggestions coming, keep them coming... \m/ |

| __________________________________ [Aug 5,2005 12:07pm - bleddry ""] That would be cool. |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 5,2005 4:16pm - BornSoVile ""] I already saw the lineup for this, it's called GOTH STOCK. |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 5,2005 4:19pm - sacreligion ""] goth stock eh? |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 5,2005 4:56pm - BornSoVile ""] yeah, the only two bands I remember seeing on it was fucking SUMMON and FECAL CORPSE. There were a few other Wretched Asylum type bands on it as well, you know gimmicky stuff. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 5,2005 5:36pm - dreadkill ""] wretched asylum type bands? i hope that's not true. i've talked to shadow about getting my band on this, and we'll be on as soon as we send in ticket money. he said it is going to feature real metal bands as opposed to nu-metal and metalcore gimmick bands. i was hoping to hear about rttp bands getting added. what bands have you heard about? |
| _________________________________ [Aug 5,2005 8:03pm - bleddry ""] He's just confusing it with another show on the same weekend. Gothstock is at The Webster Theatre in Hartford, and has a bunch of gimmicky bands playing. CTMetalfest is at The Outdoor Pavilion in Windham, and is 100% real metal from the sounds of things. The two shows have absolutely nothing to do with each other. |
| ______________________________________________ [Aug 5,2005 10:00pm - BobNOMAAMRooney nli ""] Gothstock? I hope the kids from the projects shoot everyone who attends that show. |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 5,2005 11:10pm - the dude ""] ct sucks no one ever shows up to any shows there |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 7,2005 10:57am - demonclature ""] Sounds like the goal of CTMetalFest is to help change all that... |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 23,2005 12:49pm - anonymous ""] bump |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 23,2005 1:00pm - MonikaHBBSI ""] Some of the lineup has been announced. Go to http://www.ctmetalfest.tk |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 23,2005 1:06pm - anonymous ""] Kick ass line-up!!! |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 23,2005 1:32pm - rupturedzine ""] This'll be a good one, if The Accursed can ever get enough money to play. We're workin on it Shadow, we haven't forgot. |
| _________________________________ [Aug 25,2005 8:22pm - Carrie ""] This is a GREAT line-up. |
| _________________________________ [Aug 29,2005 6:16pm - daniel ""] i will definitely be going to this... |
| ______________________________ [Aug 29,2005 7:06pm - ben ""] deathamphetamine will be playing this as well |
| __________________________________ [Sep 4,2005 10:57pm - Killogy ""] Should be an awesome show and hopefully all of you can make the trip down www.soulshroud.net |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 4,2005 11:00pm - KeithMutiny ""] HAHAHAHAHA, fuck this thing. |
| ________________________________________ [Sep 4,2005 11:26pm - todayistheday ""] looks like a shitty so far |
| _______________________________________ [Sep 5,2005 12:33am - morbid jesus ""] metaldave said:Nope, just the opposite. Check it out: http://www.ctmetalfest.tk looks like it's even worse that metalcore bands |
| _________________________________ [Sep 5,2005 7:06am - Sinistas ""] except, not. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 5,2005 9:01am - KeithMutiny ""] I heard In Flames was playing |
| _________________________________ [Sep 5,2005 9:36am - Sinistas ""] There's a bunch of diverse bands playing this show. If you don't like the styles, that's fine, but there's really no need to bash it. |
| ______________________________ [Sep 5,2005 10:06am - |an ""] on another note, any other bands getting hotel rooms in the area? anyone wanna reserve a block of rooms so we can have a killer party after? |
