Guest CorpusVirFan Posted March 8, 2007 Report Posted March 8, 2007 That almost scares me. You gotta wonder: Is the line-up going to be so bad that they're this desperate to get people to come? And think of how outrageous the prices will be there! In the end, it probably won't be worth it to even go.

2GOLD Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 Mainstage - Ozzy, Lamb of God, Lordi, one more tba Second stage - Hatebreed, Nile, Nick Oliveri's band, Ankla, The Showdown, Circus Diablo, a few others. Actually not too bad so far. Not great, but not too bad. I'm thinking I'll be leaving about 5am to head to this now.
NoCalMike Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 holy shit......NILE!?! Hmmm....I might have to go. My girlfriend has never seen Ozzy live(he got laringitis last time Ozzfest was in Sacramento).
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 Either Nile royally gays it up for that crowd or else that crowd shits all over them kicking ass. Lose/Lose.
snuffbox Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 I think the actual response to Nile's performance will be monkeystomping for the emo twits that get in the way. Unless it's all emo twits, then Agent's b) option comes to fruition.
Slayer Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 Sharon will get the crowd to throw eggs at Karl Sanders
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 Should I go to this, I vow to bean Zack Wylde with a shoe if that happens.
snuffbox Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 Not a bad idea. Hit him when he tries to look like a badass playing a 'Mama Im Coming Home' solo.
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 I almost got Sully Erna with a lighter.
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 Not a bad idea. Hit him when he tries to look like a badass playing a 'Mama Im Coming Home' solo. Like I'd stay to watch Ozzy.
snuffbox Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 I hope Black Label Society isn't added, though I know they will be. It's like an annual Godsmack.
Corey_Lazarus Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 Pro: Nile. For free. Con: Everybody else playing, and Nile seems like they'd be awful outside instead of in a mid-sized club. ...who the fuck is Lordi? They're Gwar if Gwar played shitty arena rock and lost all of the funny drug and Satanic humor. Fuck them. This has essentially guaranteed me not going lest there be some addition of, say, a reunited S.O.D. or something.
BX Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 That reminds me. A friend of mine came within three feet of nailing Matisyahu with a water balloon filled with pigs blood last year at Bonnaroo.
PLAGIARISM! Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 I thought Lordi might touch a nerve with the metal types, heh.
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted March 23, 2007 Report Posted March 23, 2007 08/22/2007 WED Tweeter Center, Philadelphia, PA The Tweeter Center is in Camden, NJ. I like how they disguise that by putting it in a different state.
Corey_Lazarus Posted March 23, 2007 Report Posted March 23, 2007 Dear fucking God Lordi is awful. Yeah...that's all I have to contribute. Terrible Gwar rip-off costumes, lame-ass Finntroll-meets-Kiss "metal"...fuck the Osbournes.
snuffbox Posted March 23, 2007 Report Posted March 23, 2007 3 Inches of Blood & Daath added to 2nd stage.
cd213 Posted March 26, 2007 Report Posted March 26, 2007 The only reason for me to go would be to see fucking LORDI rock the fucking place. I've been waiting to see them here in the states for a long time now. Hatebreed wouldn't be bad either as I've been into them for a number of years now. One of only a handful of hardcore bands that I actually like (Biohazard being my favorite Hardcore band). It's a free show so it would be worth it, then again I would have to sit through other shitty bands that I don't even like to get to them.
snuffbox Posted March 26, 2007 Report Posted March 26, 2007 Did you see that, Corey Lazarus? Lordi AND Hatebreed!
Corey_Lazarus Posted March 26, 2007 Report Posted March 26, 2007 I want to kill you. Okay, if anybody reading this goes, I want you to do this during Hatebreed's set: Find somebody, preferably bald and mid-20's with one or two hoops in each earlobe, wearing a Hatebreed shirt and rubbing suntan lotion on their new tribal tattoo(s), and then ask them which Hatebreed song is being played at the moment. When they say the name, ask "are you sure this isn't that song about blood, honor, and destiny?" Then wait to either get punched in the head, or have the big bald man with the tribal tattoo(s) try to explain what the hardcore scene is all about (despite probably never having heard a DRI or 7 Seconds album in his life).
snuffbox Posted May 10, 2007 Report Posted May 10, 2007 Static X will be the other mainstage band. Heh.
Corey_Lazarus Posted May 11, 2007 Report Posted May 11, 2007 More reason to STILL say "fuck Ozzfest" and go to Sounds of the Underground. Say what you will about the quality of music being portrayed this year (the "great" bands aren't as "great" as last year's, but the "lame" bands aren't nearly as "lame" as last year's), you're being guaranteed a solid fucking night of heavy music.
Rendclaw Posted May 14, 2007 Report Posted May 14, 2007 I just hope the DTE crew gets the place cleaned up for the Rush concert to occur two days later. After my experience at Ozzfest 2005 (more like snoozefest 2005), I'm not doing that again ever. Gigantour, maybe.
Matt Young Posted May 15, 2007 Author Report Posted May 15, 2007 I got my code, good for 2 tickets. Can't redeem them til next month, though.
Gary Floyd Posted May 15, 2007 Report Posted May 15, 2007 I'm not a fan of Lordi's music, but I do get a kick out of how much they piss off die hard metalheads. Also, I've started listening to Nile recently, and I like what I'm hearing.
NoCalMike Posted May 15, 2007 Report Posted May 15, 2007 I am going to Necrophagia instead.....(unless I get free tickets......and then maybe still not)
