| ____________________________________ [Jun 18,2009 6:29pm - immortal13 ""] I love how every band on this is friends with almost every other band. |
| _________________________________ [Jun 18,2009 6:32pm - RustyPS ""] yea, besides Dessication and Nothing To Gain, aren't every other band friendly with each other? |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 18,2009 6:41pm - immortal13 ""] Yeah pretty much. Dismantle the Cyborg, Conforza, and The Summoned are all damn good friends of mine, Mummified in Circuitry I've hung out with a few times and same with OBWT. Gonna people some good peoples at this show. |
| ___________________________________________ [Jun 18,2009 11:33pm - MillenialKingdom ""] I'm hoping this place sells out. My only problem with this show is how late the last 3 bands are going on. Also, some guy from Ligeia is judging the bands. |
| ________________________________ [Jun 19,2009 12:47am - Pires ""] anything to do with Ligeia has FAIL written all over it. In other news, good luck to all the bands. |
| _______________________________________ [Jun 19,2009 1:43am - SteveSummoned ""] Yeah we're headlining at midnight lol. I know bands will stay at least to find out if they won. However a bunch of people are coming for us too. |

| __________________________________________ [Jun 19,2009 9:43am - MillenialKingdom ""] If we don't win, maybe I'll punch him in the face and tell him his band like cocks. |
| _______________________________________ [Jun 19,2009 1:39pm - SteveSummoned ""] BUMP |
| _____________________________ [Jun 19,2009 1:41pm - ZJD ""] summond? |
| _________________________________ [Jun 19,2009 1:45pm - RustyPS ""] didn't Ligeia break up? lol |
| ___________________________________ [Jun 19,2009 2:06pm - narkybark ""] Wish we coulda played this |
| _______________________________ [Jun 19,2009 3:32pm - Pires ""] there would be no reason to have a battle of the bands if boarcorpse played, as you guys would win hands down. On the other hand, that dbag from ligeia is judging this and he probably doesn't know shit about good music. |
| ___________________________________ [Jun 19,2009 4:05pm - joeycobra ""] If I went to this and had to vote I'd feel like a dick...I'm friendly with a few of these bands. This should be settled over a a sega genesis and the original Mortal Kombat. Each band elects a player....last dude standing in a tourment style setting gets to play the show. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 2:20am - the_reverend ""] idk. wonder what happen |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 2:28am - MillenialKingdom ""] WE WON!!!!!!! Dismantle The Cyborg is playing Summer Slaughter!!!!! I honestly thought The Summoned was going to get it and they certainly deserve it. Thanks to those dudes for being so awesome. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 2:29am - the_reverend ""] I figured you guys would win. |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 2:45am - MillenialKingdom ""] You did? How so? |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 8:54am - the_reverend ""] idk, I looked at the flyer and thought "oh the summoned will win.. no wait, dismantle te cyborg will" |
| ___________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 10:08am - BrianDBB ""] Congrats to the dudes in Dismantle! Good friends, and they definitely fit the bill pretty good for Summer Slaughter. The Summoned definitely had an amazing set, one of their best actually. It was definitely a close call between the two. It sucks that all the bands were competing for just 1 open slot , but hey it's all in fun and atleast it wasn't some shit band that nobody's heard of winning this. Congrats again! |
| ________________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 10:27am - SteveSummoned ""] Definitely a real fun show last night. Beer, sing alongs to Skid Row, and just pure fucking metal. Congrats again guys! |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 10:31am - BoarcorpseJimbo ""] That's awesome guys. I honestly thought you'd win too, after watching you play a couple weeks ago. Pires-thanx buddy |
| ___________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 10:40am - archaeon ""] have fun playing at 3:00 to a bunch of people who don't care. lolz. |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 10:46am - BoarcorpseJimbo ""] It'd still be cool, you'd get to sit on the side of the stage. I'd love to watch the drums from that close all night. |
| ________________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 11:29am - SteveSummoned ""] archaeon said:have fun playing at 3:00 to a bunch of people who don't care. lolz. Dude if we were playing the palladium opening for Necrophagist we wouldn't give a shit if people cared on not. I'm a man of principal and that'd be fucking incredible regardless. |
| __________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 11:30am - RustyPS ""] congrats DTC |
| ______________________________ [Jun 20,2009 12:10pm - SW ""] good job |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 12:17pm - narkybark ""] congrats boys! |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 12:39pm - BoarcorpseJimbo ""] ^^I agree Steve. |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 1:26pm - MillenialKingdom ""] archaeon said:have fun playing at 3:00 to a bunch of people who don't care. lolz. Do you really have to be like that? I don't give a shit if 30 people were there to watch us play, we're playing the Summer Slaughter tour with a bunch of amazing bands. I can walk away from this saying I did it. |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 2:54pm - immortal13 ""] Congrats again boys. I still love the fact that that douchebag from Ligeia watched a song from each band and then went outside or downstairs to drink. Desmond had to fucking remind him that he was supposed to be watching bands, and my drunk ass just wanted to punch him in the arrogant face anyway. Fucking cocksucker. |
| __________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 2:55pm - Eli_hhcb ""] who was it? just curious singer of guitarist? |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 2:57pm - MillenialKingdom ""] Singer, I think. According to one of my guitarists, we were the only band up to that point where he stayed for the whole set. |
| __________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 3:00pm - Eli_hhcb ""] the guitarist is tiny, so if he wasn't tiny, it was prob the singer Kieth. Don't ask me why I know this... 2 years ago talked to them at the palladium at metalfest... |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 3:01pm - immortal13 ""] One of the biggest tools I've seen in a while. |
| ______________________________ [Jun 20,2009 3:15pm - blue ""] I hate to be a negative nancy, but I agree kinda with grant. I think the whole second stage shit thing on SS is a crock. I have barely heard of bands on this stage (scalpel? They're not bad but have played one show or something). More hardworking bands like hivesmasher should be on this. Shouldn't be determined by a battle of the bands full of new jacks. I'm probably just butthurt that none of my gay bands are on it though. |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 3:19pm - MillenialKingdom ""] I was told we were playing main stage. Regardless, I'm just happy to be playing there. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 3:47pm - Nobody_Cares ""] As you should be. At the very least you can say you played a show with those bands, regardless of the crowd you get. And you get to be at a show with good bands and not pay to get in. I'd say there's really no negative. Oh and congrats. |

| ______________________________ [Jun 20,2009 4:04pm - blue ""] I used HS as an example for a reason. |
| _________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 4:10pm - RustyPS ""] oh I SEE |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 4:21pm - MillenialKingdom ""] I do agree that Hivesmasher has worked their way and definitely deserves all the good they get but I feel like we have a good chance to get exposure too. The guys I play with have been doing this for years and are just as hard working. It's an honor to be apart of what we all do and love. |
| ______________________________ [Jun 20,2009 5:07pm - blue ""] Of course you think its good exposure, because it is good exposure. Just calls em how I sees em, I guess. |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 8:00pm - immortal13 ""] IMO it's gonna be just like every other show that has big headliners and locals opening, and that is no one paying attention to the locals because at shows like this no one cares about the locals, unless one of the nationals were to headline that stage. That's just my opinion though. By the way, that dude from Ligiea still sucks and I'm gonna repeat that in every single one of my replies on this thread now. |
| ___________________________________________ [Jun 20,2009 10:37pm - MillenialKingdom ""] Not too many local bands can say they played the Palladium with Necrophagist, Suffocation and Origin. I'll be able to say that I did. That's what I care about. |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 21,2009 6:55pm - immortal13 ""] Yeah but the dude from ligiea or however the fuck you spell it can still suck my left testicle. |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 21,2009 7:03pm - mad hater ""] yea blue is right why don't you guys play a real fest like the one he does.... LOL CAN YOU READ MY SARCASM? |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 21,2009 7:04pm - immortal13 ""] lolz I see what you did there |
| ______________________________ [Jun 21,2009 7:12pm - Blue ""] this is true. |
