So I should know better than to ask right now, but is anyone going? I'll definitely be there. Last year about a dozen people said they'd be going and not one of you fuckfaces did
I hope to meet at least one new face from the PBB in Baltimore next year

Who cares about "seeing" the bands? Sonar's a pretty small club. It hosts a lot of metal tours that come through Baltimore so it's not like you're in an open air arena or anything.
It gets rather crowded but it's manageable. Last year they started having a second stage outside (which is fucking awesome), so if the weather's good they'll probably do that again. Inside the stage is rather high so you'll be able to see the bands probably if it really matters to you, but it will be pretty crowded. The main acts were outside last year and it was definitely a better atmosphere
tomEtom: this is gonna rule!! We're gonna get drunk together, buddy.
I wouldn't mind seeing Autopsy and Sodom but I'm not in a rush to do it. If I had more money I'd probably go, but with a limited budget I figure I'll just save the $40. Sunday is definitely going to rule, though
"And if I leave you, let me leave you entirely un-enthralled. That way, if you remember me years later, it's for good cause and not something completely forced. When I walk that door, I pray for a collective yawn."
Only going to be going to Friday and Sunday. Really don't like Autopsy or Sodom or the other dozen bands I've never heard of enough to pay another $47, but Friday and Sunday are gonna rule

You're kidding me? Thats about £90 over here. More than worth it. If we had a festival with a 3 day line-up this good over here I would be there in an instant.
From now until the first day of Maryland Deathfest (May 28, 2010) pre-purchase your copy of "Maryland Deathfest: The Movie" and be entered into the grind/death/score promotion.
For a mere $15 death metal bones, you get a DVD copy of "Maryland Deathfest: The Movie", a "Maryland Deathfest: The Movie" poster, and you will be automatically entered into a draw to win a FREE Maryland Deathfest 2011 weekend pass, as well as the entire Handshake Inc. DVD library ("Axis of Eden", "Disgorge, Mexico", "Maryland Deathfest: The Movie", "Jucifer Live at Call the Office", untitled BRUTAL TRUTH documentary) and the poster.
You may choose to have the DVD and poster shipped to you or print your receipt and bring it for redemption to Maryland Deathfest 2010.
Approaching middle age, I would opt for this movie package dealeo. 15 bucks and a poster? Shit.....that's a helluvalot more appealing right now than wading around with a bunch of degenerates for a couple of days listening to spotty sounding death metal sludge. Call me a pussy or an old fart but I'm going for the DVD.
At the House of Blues, I stand in the back bar section with all the old farts and we reminisce about the days of old and talk about bands we like. Then, if those crazy kids don't get out of hand I slowly make my way down to the floor and take a rest by the sound board.
