METAL Heads club

[kenkickr]

just got back from the mayhem fest in Chicago it was pretty damn awesome, but it was no ozzfest, first off i couldn't drink, and on top of that once again i was shown that Illinois people are pussies the pits were weak as hell, the biggest pit happened for the first band of the day and that was for the red chord, but all the bands sounded pretty damn good, but david from disturbed, it took him 3 songs before he was fully warmed up, also the set for slipknot was to short, btw they rocked that place, no doubt about it they are back (and they were phenomenal, they went all out for this show i was happy, they sounded better than they did in Milwaukee)

also i met the red chord, half of dragon force, and the lead singer for mastodon

Fuck Chitown!(Except for the Cubs!!). I went and saw Mayhem outside of St Louis and I was pretty impressed with this being the 1st year so hopefully more will come and kick some more ass. As for the illinois people are pussies....I am what I eat!

[das müffin mann]

haha Illinois people are pussies? You're mean Born and raised in Chicago and moved to cheese eating Packer land here haha

I got pretty busted up in the pit at the In Flames concert, it was a really small venue though...whole place turned into a mosh pit ^^

im not saying the people are pussies, its just the pits they start are just lame, i've been there for 3 different festivals, all 3 times i've been terribly disappointed by the pits, that and all the hardcore dancing, seriously that shit looks retarded, if you don't know what hardcore dancing is google it and tell me that you don't want to either laugh at them or hit them

there are certain shows where hardcore dancing is allowed(like avenged sevenfold shows), but there are some where you will get beat, like slayer

The one I went to was crazy.. A7X concerts aren't as crazy as BTBAM when they play one their heavy songs! And In Flames ones are just insane..

 

[PP Mguire]

I went to Ozzfest 2004 when Slayer was there. The pit for them when they played Deciple was crazy. Which was their first song.

ya they are that's why i picked them

gwar shows can't be beaten by any band their shows are just phenomenal, NO one has a better stage presence

and yes slayers pits are insane, one of the fathers/gods of metal how could they not be

Man, last year's Ozzfest was nuts.
I went to the one in Detroit and there was about seven circle pits on the lawn at DTE/Pine Knobb. The people up there started tearing out the sod and throwing it at everyone in the pavilion. Static X's singer tried telling the dumb people to stop, (some girl got hit in the head with a beer cup full of sod and EMS people had to take her to the hospital) but it didn't work. Big Dave had to come out and got angry, that seemed to work. He ended it with a joke though "Everyone knows grass isn't for throwing! It's for SMOKING!"
The event ended up making front page news the next day.

 

[PP Mguire]

Yea i was at last years as well. Here they always wind up starting fights and somebody always winds up dieing. Dosent hit news though cause nobody cares lol. Dallas is hxc.

 

[Ongaku]

ouch...it never gets as hardcore as it used to be...I remember being on my dad's shoulders in a Pantera concert and we were in the pit lol. They'd never let an 8 year old do that now would they?

 

[PP Mguire]

Actualy with the way douchebags are now (and here) the 8yo would get let in and smashed to hell. I was watching a warped tour 2007 video and some small chick got pushed into the pit and they beat the hell outa her.

Then people don't understand what a pit is. When I (and any other decent metal head) crash into some small person I help them up again. If you see someone is actually getting beaten up, you help them out. A pit isn't about hurting people, though I don't mind the elbow in the face on occasion. Unfortunately there are always a few idiots who randomly smash around at face height not getting the whole point.

 

[mab1376]

Stuff off the self titled album, their newest cd is crap in my opinion (subliminal verses)? songs like vermillion, when i listined to it for the first time i was like "did corey's balls fall off?"

They have a new ca coming out next tues called "All Hope is Gone". I have a feeling its gonna be the same crap.

Well when you said old stuff i imidiately thought pre-Corey days. Mate Feed Kill Repeat is the album i like from them. Mostly instrumental and they experiment with different types of music. Makes you sit back and say Joey is one kickass drummer.

 

[mab1376]

yeah i've listined to some of that stuff and its mind blowing the talent on some of those guys.

Pit ethic You fall, someone should pick you up...

speaking of that...I despise the Insane Clown Posse...but my aunt took me to a Hallowicked concert, or whatever the hell it's called, last year. It only cost me the gas money so I decided to go. Show starts up and the place becomes a pit. I got pulled down and well...I was on the ground for a solid 5 minutes screaming my lungs out getting stepped on. My glasses got torn off my face and smashed, I got a swollen eye, and horribly bruised legs...not to mention my pants were nearly torn off my ass. Horrible horrible evening...nobody came to help me at all...my bf was shoving people out of the way to get me off the ground.

I fell down in the pit at the In Flames gig and the security guys came rushing in and helped me get up. Plus, they sent me down to the doctor just to make sure I was alright. Got 4 free bottles of water out of it too and a nicely bruised face But that was so worth it, ICP wasn't

Stupid jerks...

The KMFDM show i saw in NYC was by far the most ethiced crowd ever. some 7 ft tall 500Lb guy pushed the entire pit out of the way so i could get to the front cuz my gf is small.

Funny thing about metalheads, they look aggressive but mostly look after eachother quite well in pits and the likes. I've seen so many people drop to the ground hard, be picked up, and go on. I recall hitting a girl in the throat once, she obviously was in pain. I simply stopped, asked if she was ok, she was ok, went on. No hard feelings or anything. It's one of the nice things about metal-only festivals as well, everyone gets along.

I got trampled at a nightwish gig once - got knocked to the deck & because i was right in the middle of the pit nobody saw lmao - needless to say i was trying to get OUT of the pit when i was dragged back in twice my friend said it was like watching me get washed out to sea, I tried to grab his hand so i could get out but i couldnt reach

(im quite a fairly big guy - 6"1 & pretty hench but i couldnt keep my footing)
