PHEWYEEESSSSS!!!! I was so pissed that you wouldn't be flying down on thursday now. Glad you're in. |

| ____________________________________ [Oct 18,2012 8:24pm - trioxin245 ""] guess Im not going |
| ________________________________ [Oct 18,2012 8:33pm - Spence ""] There's still going to be three day sonar passes, and one day sonar passes for Friday-Sunday, as well as one day passes to each day for the Soundstage. If someone picked up a three day soundstage pass, and then picked up individual day passes for the Soundstage, it'd be like a four day all access pass - but minus Thursday. haha Don't know how much this would cost though. If Manilla Road, Sleep and Carcass all end up on the same day somehow, I may go down just for that one. |

Back when Blessed are the sick was a new album, back when I won an Asphyx tape for answering Pestilence when asked what was Martin Van Drunen's former band, when I would call up and debate the quality of Scott Burns era material with Brian Paskin, a true extreme music intellectual. Brian Blood-Axe..... Sonic Fury. |
| __________________________________ [Oct 19,2012 8:02am - chrisREX ""] This show is months away. I bet if you can keep an eye ope you can get Thursday ticket between now and then. |
| ____________________________________________ [Oct 19,2012 8:10am - AndrewBastard NLI ""] yeah, people start selling off thier passes/tickets etc like wild fire as the fest gets closer once they realize they cant afford it or whatever.. |
| ________________________________ [Oct 19,2012 9:03am - KEVORD ""] The Thursday show for MDF XI is sold out. Due to some of the nasty e-mails and messages we've been reading, it is likely that you've already caught wind of this news. Do keep this in mind: Bolt Thrower prefers to play inside shows, which is the reason they were given the Thursday headlining role. It was either book them for Thursday or not book them at all. Sending us e-mails telling us to fuck off and how stupid it is to have them on Thursday isn't going to get you anywhere. A more appropriate approach would be to keep your eyes glued to our message board in the coming months, as inevitably, people must cancel their plans to attend and sell their tickets to others. Furthermore, Bolt Thrower is playing at least one other show while in the US, so MDF isn't your only option to see them. Regarding Soundstage ticket availability - If you did not get a multi-day pass that covers Soundstage access, we will be releasing single day tickets for each day on October 31st, which is when a list of bands for each day of the festival will be posted. Consider this a fair warning if you still want access to the bands at Soundstage. Will these sell out? Yes. Will they sell out in a matter of days? We have no idea. Just go to the website on October 31st and get single day tickets for Soundstage if you want to be on the safe side. Some of the hotels we've been in touch with aren't giving much of shit for a discount, so we're still working on it. When we have some news in this department, we'll post it. |

| ____________________________________________ [Oct 19,2012 2:25pm - AndrewBastard NLI ""] Due to the overwhelming demand for Thursday tickets, specifically to see Bolt Thrower, we have contacted the band who are now looking into the possibility of playing a second set at MDF between Friday-Sunday. If a second set happens, we'll let you know very soon, but do keep in mind that it would also be an inside show. The band prefers to play inside, which is why we scheduled them to headline Thursday to begin with. Nobody, including ourselves or Bolt Thrower, expected tickets for Thursday to sell out (in only 3 days), so we are doing what we can for those of you who missed out on a ticket, and those that have 4 day passes will have an opportunity to see them twice. ... |

Personally, i'd rather see Bolt Thrower play MDF and two-five other USA shows than just two sets at MDF. But that's just me. |

| ________________________________ [Oct 19,2012 4:09pm - Spence ""] KEVORD said:Spence is in Bolt Thrower now? Yes. Now brb, releasing way too many different issues of the same album on vinyl just to cash in on all the LPcollectors and Bolt Thrower fanboys. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 19,2012 4:20pm - BlackoutRick ""] Holy Shit!!! Iniquity!!!! So I would go for: Bolt Thrower, Iniquity, Integrity, Obsessed, Carcass, and Down. |

Now brb, releasing way too many different issues of the same album on vinyl just to cash in on all the LPcollectors and Bolt Thrower fanboys. Yeah, cause the band has any control over what Earache does with their back catalog. |
| ________________________________ [Oct 19,2012 5:03pm - Spence ""] Alright, fair enough. |
| ____________________________________ [Oct 19,2012 5:05pm - trioxin245 ""] lol @ anyones what people think of Bolt Thrower. Theyve been one of the best DM ever since before you were born. That being said, 2 sets in one fest is stupid, for ANY band. |

| ________________________________ [Oct 19,2012 5:10pm - KEVORD ""] As much as I have no problem seeing Bolt Thrower twice I'm afraid that it's gonna push a band I want to see into an even later set time. The days are long enough as it is. |

Brian Blood-Axe..... Sonic Fury. This almost slipped past me with all of the other posts going on. I see Brian all the time. Speaking of Morbid, we were at the Morbid Angel / Grave show a couple weeks ago... |

| _______________________________________ [Oct 20,2012 8:52am - punk potenza ""] kromosom from aussie is really good noisey punk ala all those old nasty jap bands like confuse and kuro. i have their demo from 2010 real good shit i hope they do a tour around mdf!!!!! crazy that infest is getting back together to play. though at the risk of sounding too cool and punk. id rather see them in a smaller club than a big stage. thats just my two cents. for anybody going and into no bull shit real hardcore punk check out kromosom!!!!!!!! |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 21,2012 12:10am - AUTOPSY_666 ""] This fest outgrew itself years ago, they should find a better spot. |

| ________________________________ [Oct 22,2012 3:13pm - Spydre ""] This is the first year I'll be around on Memorial Day for MDF, so I just bought 4 tickets to head down with some band mates. Any recommendations for hotels? |
| _________________________________ [Oct 23,2012 10:38am - Spydre ""] Ended up booking Hampton Inn, since it's close to the venue and was somewhat cheaper than most of the other hotels nearby. |

| ____________________________________ [Oct 29,2012 9:47am - trioxin245 ""] Based on KEVORDs last post, if I even go it looks like it will be just be for sunday. There are a few good bands here and there throughout the other days but mostly just garbage. Also, how useless are the soundstage line-ups? Horrible. Jeez. |
| ________________________________ [Oct 29,2012 9:49am - Spence ""] Well... I was hoping that Carcass, Sleep and Manilla Road would somehow all end up on the same day. Looks like that was a bust. |

Looks like that was a bust. Yea really. Not trying to be a downer or everything but if you took all the bands worth paying all that money to go to MD to see and put them together, it would barely even make one full day, and then on top of it, theyre all split between four days, so juust to see like the five or six worthwhile bands I would have to pay for four days worth. Fuck that, I will use the money on a new guitar or a plane ticket to europe instead. |
| ________________________________ [Oct 29,2012 9:59am - Spence ""] Yeah, definitely. I realize that some of these bands I may never see, but spending probably around or over 600 bucks between the ticket, gas, hotel, food and merch just... isn't worth it. |
| _________________________________ [Oct 29,2012 10:23am - KEVORD ""] Thursday - Abigail, Bolt thrower, Evoken, Cobalt Friday- Benediction, Carcass, Convulse, Pig Destroyer, Repulsion Saturday - Anhedonist, Broken Hope, Down, Inquity, Melvins, sleep, the obsessed Sunday - Cruciamentum, Exodus, Integrity, Manilla Road, Midnight, Pentagram , Venom worth the price of admission |

| _____________________________________ [Oct 29,2012 10:49am - arilliusbm ""] Let's face the facts. With all due respect to the good bands that are playing, this fest is too spread out with too many bands and a mediocre venue. It should also be 21+. They are aiming too high and want to put on the best fest in America (which they do), but it is overkill. They have some of the best lineups and bands come over, but 4 days? |
| _________________________________ [Oct 29,2012 10:54am - KEVORD ""] The outdoor venue is actually a pretty cool set up. 4 days seems like a lot but it flys by. I'm old and get tired quickly and I made it all four days. I assume they have to spread it out to pay for all of the bands and keep the ticket prices some what reasonable. |
