[QUOTE="theundergroundscene:59133"]Actually it's pretty easy to figure out. What if you lived in Japan? You'd be lucky to see Slayer once a year. I saw Slayer three times last year. Try being a metal fan in Australia, where you're lucky if you get a band like Limp Bizkit every other month. How about Jordan or anywhere else in the middle east. Try being a metal fan there and hoping to see a show, and then having a band like Opeth, whom you saw last night have to cancel shows there THREE times. How about ANYWHERE in South America? You think they wouldn't dream of a show like this? I happen to live right here in Worcester, and I have less than an hour drive to get to Boston, Springfield, Hartford and Providence, AND a ten minute WALK to the Palladium. And if I feel up to the drive, I am two and a half hours away from Albany and three hours from Maine and New York City. I can see almost any tour that happens at any given time in the United States if I feel like it. I know of a kid in France that had to take a six hour TRAIN ride just to see Darkest Hour. I SAW THEM FIVE TIMES LAST YEAR. So yes, in terms of having amazing bands all over the place (both local and national) and being able to see all of my favorite bands almost any time I want to, where else in the world would I rather live than New England? Because of that exact reason, fans in New England are very jaded to shows like this because we've had the best and it's very hard to top the best. Like I said, if there were other bands touring right now that made sense to add to this bill, then I am sure there would be some bigger names and more "metal" bands playing, but there is not, so they made due with what they had to work with. I am sure they will be adding more bands, but how much sense does it make to start flying bands that aren't touring in from all over the world just to make a couple of fans happy, especially considering this will sell out regardless. That only means your ticket will cost more to compensate. Oh, and I was at the NJMHF and I'll take this lineup over it any day, but I was talking about that Metal Meltdown waste of a time they are having...[/QUOTE]
