There really is not that many in an average week, maybe two or three Well, I just meant overall. I mean there aren't a dozen thrash, black, death, power, speed metal shows/week, but I'm including all the other stuff (metalcore, grind, doom, stoner rock, etc), and usually there are multiple choices every night on the Events page. |

It's not like you can cast some magic spell to make shit succeed, you just plug away and do what it takes. I have no problem handing out flyers at shows by myself. It takes longer to get everyone a flyer, but it's do-able. If it's a problem, just ask some people you know at the show to help for 5 minutes. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 20,2006 3:48pm - Anthony nli ""] Anthony nli said:I agree. But even with all locals if you put together a show that makes sense and make it sound appealing to people, it can be very successful. You just have to have a sense that you are creating an event, not just throwing together some bands at a bar and then being lazy about promoting it. This was in response to DHTH. |

Aye, and that's definitely true. Some events are mandatory because they have a great lineup that just can't be beat. But in general the wealth of shows does split the crowds, I've seen many shows where just having 20-30 more people would make all the difference. Everyone has a right to play though, and everyone wants to play and book shows, so nothing can really be done about this. It'll balance out again one day when the metal popularity dies down like it did in the 90s. |

| _________________________________________ [Sep 20,2006 4:48pm - SacreligionNLI ""] sure thing dude the only problem i've found with that is that it's usually inefficient to flyer more than 15 miles away from where the show is(most people don't travel that far for local shows unless it's ridiculously awesome) speaking of which, wanna collaborate and have some crazy show that everyone will go to? |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 20,2006 4:52pm - Anthony nli ""] I agree about the distance thing. The good thing about having flyers up around here is that it is a hub and alot of people who don't live here come here. It can't hurt to get up as many flyers as possible though, there are definitely people who will drive out of their way. As for the collaboration, that sounds good and I am definitely down. I am trying to cool it a little bit on the local booking right now, as I have a few shows in the works and my plate is full. Maybe in a few months? Let me know any ideas you have. |
| _________________________________________ [Sep 20,2006 4:55pm - SacreligionNLI ""] i hadn't planned on doing shows anytime soon myself...i still need to get a little more grounded in the money department before i can make any investments, i'll probably just do local clubs and such so i don't have to pay anything out of pocket for the time being i want to try and book some national bands though, and throw some bigger local names on with a couple newer bands that just kick ass \m/ |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 20,2006 4:56pm - BSV@school ""] this isn't even a fucking black metal show. I'd like to think Belphegor is more of a Black/Death, due to the brutal vokills. What's a good Belphegor album? I only have Necroterror... |
| _________________________________________ [Sep 20,2006 4:56pm - SacreligionNLI ""] but yea...if you have any flyers you'd like strewn about worcester just toss em my way and i'lll put em up at all the places i usually go to |

| _______________________________ [Sep 21,2006 10:42am - Yeti ""] Goatreich Fleshcult is fucking awesome. a few songs have a slower tempo but most are blinding speeds. i love the song Fornicatium Et Imundus Diabolus or however its spelled. awesome shit. i throw that on when i play Burnout: Revenge because the speeds accent each other well. dead your god is dead strangled with a rosary dead your god is dead sepulcher of hypocrisyyyyy |
| _______________________________ [Sep 21,2006 10:44am - Yeti ""] there is only one moment on Goatreich that i can complain about, and thats on track 5. there is a part that is extended on repetition too many. it goes 1 2 1 2 3 4 1 2 1 2 3 4 1 2 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 and i think the extra 1234 at the end is one too many. |

I do not like this band |
| ________________________________________ [Sep 21,2006 12:36pm - Aegathis nli ""] yup that last one was me |

Tell me marks showplace won't have a pit break out during that. |

| ______________________________________________ [Sep 21,2006 11:50pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] I think Hatchet should be on this show. At least that's what the voices from the ether are saying. |

| ________________________________ [Sep 22,2006 6:27am - Kevord ""] But on a serious note you could probably sell the tickets very easily. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 22,2006 8:42am - the_reverend ""] Unleashed Belphegor Zircon out of those bands, zircon will motivate people to go and I know there will be more people there to see zircon than an obscure band from 15 years ago that people forgot about and a kvlt band from austria. now, in terms of draw, let's look at the local bands: CNV: I personally would put them on before zircon, but this gives you not much more in draw since all CNV's friends/members would come anyhow to drink and see the headliners. witchtomb: would be awesome, but no draw. plus, the sound system at mark's did them no justice last show. godless rising: awesome, but getting mass fans up to NH, especially immigrant ones, would be hard. I'm drawing a blank on other bands right now that would fit. |
| __________________________________________ [Sep 22,2006 10:03am - SacreligionNLI ""] Coffin Birth would fit, as would Afar they should just get Impaled Northern MoonForest |
| __________________________________________ [Sep 22,2006 10:03am - SacreligionNLI ""] mortis deveia too |
| ________________________________ [Sep 22,2006 4:00pm - Kevord ""] Hatchet would draw big time. If Dungeonbat did there reunion half the Merrimack Valley would show up. hint hint scott. |

Pay to play is gay and I'll have no part of it, but the other guys could force their customers at their tattoo parlors to buy all the tix. |
| ________________________________ [Sep 22,2006 4:04pm - Kevord ""] That's exactly what I was thinking today. You guys could sell all those tickets in no time. |
| _____________________________________________ [Sep 22,2006 4:05pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Kevord said:Hatchet would draw big time. If Dungeonbat did there reunion half the Merrimack Valley would show up. hint hint scott. I doubt Dungeonbat would be added to the bill even if there was a re-union. If that ever happens, it's gotta be on the home turf. What are the tickets, 10 at $15 or 15 at $10? |
| ________________________________ [Sep 22,2006 4:08pm - Kevord ""] Oh now your thinking about it aren't you. If Hatchet gets added I'll buy 4 tickets myself. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 22,2006 5:37pm - anonymous ""] this show would be cool if Zircon wasn't on it.... i mean seriously....does anyone really like this band other than Dimmu fans? |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 22,2006 5:52pm - the_reverend ""] when I posted my comment I mean to say a DB reunion for the MV kids, but I was driving and forgot. |
| __________________________________________ [Sep 22,2006 7:25pm - dwellingsickness ""] I have been listening to the new UNLEASHED for like a week straight...It is so good (I am sure I said this before,In another thread,But it is worth repeating):doublehorns: |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 23,2006 1:36am - anonymous ""] Real Fans will be there! So who of us locals does not know a band that would want to play or are in a band and want to be on this bill. I definitely will be there either way for the headliners and openers. So fuck you all and just shut up and go and all the bands that are confirmed have one thing in common. They are fucken REAL METAL and BRUTAL so support them. I've listened to Unleashed since the 80's and have all the albums on tape and Belphegor for a couple of years and Krisiun since the late 90's, so it does mean something to the fan and a bill like this does not always come along frequently. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 23,2006 2:15am - vomitthesoul ""] How are the Unleashed albums after Across the Open Sea? I only own their first three |
