Same. Exodus puts on a fucking great show. Haven't seen Testament in a long time. I'm definitely going to this

Where the hell did you buy your ticket from? You should be able to get the money back.

Wait, wait a second...this tour isn't hitting up Wisconsin or Illinois? WTF? There are two days where they don't play in a row. March 9th and 10th. Anyone think they would add a date?

Izzy · Post by **Izzy** » Tue Jan 26, 2010 12:29 am

I doubt they're going to travel even further west for a couple of dates only to turn around and drive back to Pennsylvania. Sorry buddy.

Farther west? The Canada date two days before the Indiana date is way further west. They could come east, stop in Illinois or Wisconsin, then the next day go to Indiana.

Well apparently my screen is crooked.

I guess Alex Skolnick would rather tour with his little side project band than make some good money on this tour.

Canadian guitarist Glen Drover (ex-MEGADETH, KING DIAMOND, EIDOLON) will fill in for Alex Skolnick on TESTAMENT's upcoming North American tour with MEGADETH and EXODUS. "My buddies in TESTAMENT called me up to see if I could help for the tour, as Alex will be away during this time," Glen writes on his MySpace page. "It will be great to get back out for a little bit and see all my friends in those bands, as well as the fans, and of course being a part of playing 'The Legacy' album, which has always been one of my faves!"

I might see this tour in DC and then the next night in Baltimore, depending.

what a bunch of fucking bullshit. nashville show was canceled when they were with slayer and they aren't coming back in march like dave said they would

this really makes me sad because this is a much better show. slayer sucks ass live and any way you look at it exodus is better than slayer

Seating at rock shows is GAY. I thought Ozzfest was always at some amphitheater with seats? Kid Rock actually insists on putting seats out on the arena floor for his shows.

Agreed, but it is nice to have somewhere to sit between bands or during ones you don't care about. Like the openers on this tour.

you're a fucking pussy.

*general admission for the win!

*you can always go to the bar or check out merch / people watch during bands you don't like.

Lumber Jack Off · Post by **Lumber Jack Off** » Tue Feb 02, 2010 12:50 am

I just want to add...I HATE seats at concerts, especially large ones.

one of the main reasons I ever only attended ozzfest a couple of times other than the fact that most of the time the line up sucked, was that to get up front to the mainstage you had to shell out some serious cash, and the venue where they held it here didn't even have a pit.

Brandon · Post by **Brandon** » Wed Feb 03, 2010 4:47 am

the venues in indiana and pennsylvania have seating! LAME AND GAY

i think i will just go to the scion fest.

Smaller venues = seats. Assholes.
