this isn't shocking at all. Vital Remains aren't nearly as big as people would like to beleive. they often play shows where basically other bands pay to play so that promoters will actually book them, hence why sometimes they have 8 fucking bands opening for them. also why a lot of times they play hole in the walls or DIY venues.
of course they don't do this when glen is with them because he's a prick. you're better off seeing them with one of their other vocalists.

Doug's is a complete shit hole. I saw Trouble there last spring. My buddy's band was to open but didn't because they were still fucking around with the soundboard at like 9:00 p.m. Evidently, there was a major problem with the compression or some shit.

I kow they aren't a big band, but just saying the shithole it is in, I am surprised they play there. And Glenn is not doing vocals for them there, as far as I know.

I just saw them open for Deicide and no, Glen will not be singing although he did come on and do 4 songs at the end, just because he was there.

I figured he probably would be doing some with them, since of course he does do the albums now.
I guess it depends on the band, usually when I saw them around here they all hang out or around the merch table and the bar even though there is a backstage area. I figure most just want to talk to people. probably gets irritating being with the same few band mates night after night.

Going tonight, only $12. Too bad the show starts at 5:00pm and there is like 8 deathcore bands opening, I might just show up around 8:00pm because I don't want to stand through all that garbage, even though I do know people in a couple of the opening bands.
God damn it...who the fuck was the guy that subbed for Glen Benton in 2006? He played with them at the Maryland Deathfest that year...huge, bald white guy, ripped as fuck and grim to helvete, decked to the nines in spiky gauntlets and crap. I've been researching and apparently this description could apply to either Thorn or Jeff Gruslin, both of whom had previously fronted the band in the 90's. Or maybe it was a third guy altogether, because I definitely remember fans at the show being like "woah, who the fuck is this guy filling in for Glen? he RULES" as though it was somebody brand new. This band's lineup history is very confusing!

Well I think the gauntlets are just part of the stage show for Vital Remains. Wily was wearing them too and he had a cross he held upside down the whole time.
