Mayhem Fest Chicago

[Bar Rat]

Hatebreed is replacing Trivium for Chicago and Indianapolis. That makes the main stage lineup a bit more palatable.

Disturbed
Godsmack
Megadeth
Machine Head
In Flames
Hatebreed

[Bodom J (2)]

In flames are a fucking joke especially live.

[Bar Rat]

Great. I had hopes they would be decent. I'm guessing their sound will be pretty bad given their spot on the bill.

[Bodom J (2)]

Hatebreed is boring live their songs blend in. Megadeth slays and based on their dvd machine head put on a good show.

I'm going to the Cincinnati show since I can't make the Pittsburgh one

Only bands I really give a shit to see that much are Megadeth, Machine Head, In Flames (though they suck on festival shows), Kingdom of Sorrow and I guess All Shall Perish are alright though they were a huge letdown when I saw them with Kataklysm a few months back.

[Bar Rat]

So I should check out the second stage. I was just going to stay at my seat in the pavilion because I didn't recognize any of those bands really. It's going to be cool save the fact my buddy's girlfriend is going to see Godsmack and she doesn't like him smoking weed. We are usually blazing up at these things.

[White Boy]

In Flames sucks live?

[Mad Muir]

To be honest, anything after Clayman is garbage.

[Bodom J (2)]

I liked reroute to remain

[Mad Muir]

I rest my case.

[Leviathan]

When I discovered that he had written "Mayhem Fest" on one of the test papers along with some weird drawings, I decided to inform the college DeanO))) and counselors.

[Bar Rat]

Oh man!!!! I can't fucking wait for this!!!! I'm going to rock out hard!!!!!!!!! I sure hope Disturbed plays Down With The Sickness. I'll dance during that. Do you think Godsmack will play Stand Alone? I'll dance during that, too.

[Eibon]

6 shit bands with not a single bit of "mayhem" in them

[Bar Rat]

Dude, I'm just going to get wasted and look at all the hot metal sluts!!!!!!!! Whoooooooooooooooo!!!!!!

[Tyson]

Dean prefers the bigger venue gigs, that way he can get lost in the crowd instead of dirtbags picking fights with him in dive bars

[Bar Rat]

Texas Hippie Coalition is actually opening one of the second stages in Oklahoma City.

[Tyson]

If you moved there you'd be viewed as an 8 instead of a 5

[Bar Rat]

This year, we got Slipknot, Slayer and Anthrax along with another, as of now, unannounced big band.

[shortkidwill]

The un-announced big band is Motorhead.

I'll be at the Pittsburgh show this year.

[Izzy]

Considering I still haven't seen Slayer and they've gotta be hanging 'em up one of these years soon, maybe I'll go to this gay shit.

[IFryKids]

Too much gay shit aside from Slayer and Motorhead.

[Psycho Gangster]

This will probably be the first Mayhem I skip in a while. Lineup is mediocre outside of Slayer.
