i was plannin on goin to the upcomming metal thursday so i'll just grab one there.
WTF? So many locals on this now. What happened? Is this going on the whole tour? Is suffocation still on? Why won't someone please think of the children!?!?
That's exactly what it is...cashing in on suckers like us, haha.
Its really no different than playing a show at Anyclub-USA and being given tickets to sell in exchange for opening for whatever popular band it may be.
To me, its like shopping at Walmart...I try and support a local business if I can, but if they'll sell me muscle relaxers for $4 a bottle, I can't fight it.
Likewise, getting to play in front of a bunch of peeps at the Palladium is worth doing a bit of legwork and doing the promoter's job for them...even though I'm not huge on the ticket sales thing.
Aaron, I'll also be buying one from you saturday. I'll be late to that show, but I still wanna buy a ticket so don't leave til I get one or you're a pussy.
Working on getting the set times, haven't received word back yet...as soon as I know you'll know, even if it means posting them from my phone when we check in on Saturday.
are you fucking kidding? I'm considering not even going even though i have a ticket. Only band i want to see is origin and i can see reign supreme, shai hulud and the carrier. fuck this shit.
I'm like SO pissed right now. Are you sure about decrepit birth because they still have the date on their myspace? Maybe ill go for them and origin then go to the show in haverhill.
From what I heard they just dropped off about halfway through. I hope it's not true as well, because I'm also pretty pissed about it. Someone should tell them to play or they're pussies.
Definitely no DF or Suffo. I'm sending an angry letter to the dude who put this on. There's no info about suffocation/DF no playing particular dates. I wouldn't have bought a ticket if I knew this.
Yeah, I'm pretty much heading out halfway through cuz I could have a better time at my friends 21st bday party getting hammered. Will be there from the start of the show up until I feel like leaving.
Bummed that some good bands dropped off, but should still be a hell of a time...

no suffocation and no decrepit birth means this is a no go.
necrophagist is great but i've seen them four times already, and its irritating that they only play two songs off of onset. plus they need to just fucking stop touring and record.

An eccentric English Metalhead [John Cleese] walks up to Henry Orgone [Michael Palin]'s ticket window at the Palladium, past the homeless bouzouki player [Rich Bova].
Metalhead: Good Morning.
Orgone: Good morning, Sir. Welcome to the Worcester Palladium!
Metalhead: Ah, thank you, my good man.
Orgone: What can I do for you, Sir?
Metalhead: Well, I was, uh, sitting in Irish Times across the way just now, skimming through "Rogue Herrys" by Hugh Walpole and having a few pints, and I suddenly came over all lamed out.
Orgone: Lamed out, sir?
Metalhead: Ennuient.
Orgone: Eh?
Metalhead: 'Ee, Ah wor bored-loike!
Orgone: Ah, bored!
Metalhead: In a nutshell. And I thought to myself, "a little of the old thrash and slam will do the trick," so, I curtailed my Walpoling activites, sallied forth, and infiltrated your place of purveyance to negotiate the attendance of some vituperative riffage!
Orgone: Come again?
Metalhead: I want to see some death metal.
Orgone: Oh, I thought you were complaining about the bouzouki player!
Metalhead: Oh, heaven forbid: I am one who delights in ALL manifestations of the Terpsichorean muse!
Orgone: Sorry?
Metalhead: A BOUZOUKI IS FINE TOO!
Orgone: So he can go on playing, can he?
Metalhead: Most certainly! Now then, a ticket please, my good man.
Orgone: (lustily) Certainly, sir. Who are you interested to see?
Metalhead: Well, eh, how about Suffocation.
Orgone: I'm, a-fraid Suffocation's not playing, sir.
Metalhead: Oh, never mind, how about Dying Fetus?
Orgone: I'm afraid they're not playing either, sir.
Metalhead: Tish tish. No matter. Well, stout yeoman, Decrepit Birth, if they're not done yet.
Orgone: Ah! They're on the second half of the tour, sir, the next two weeks. Not today.
Metalhead: 'T's Not my lucky day, is it? Aah, Origin?
Orgone: Sorry, sir.
Metalhead: Beneath The Massacre?
Orgone: Normally, sir, yes. Today their van broke down.
Still leaving at some point after Origin. I'll see Necrophagist next year when half the bands don't drop off. Plus, two songs off Onset? Fail. That should be their whole set.
You'll be leaving really fuckin early if you're planning on splitting after Origin. I was legitimately butt-hurt at Born Of Osiris (who tie Winds Of Plague and School of Seven Bells as worst bands I've seen live) going on after Origin in Hartford and playing what seemed to be an interminably longer set. Horseshit.
I'm not gonna leave right after them, I'll probably stick around and hang out with some buddies for a little while, but I don't feel like waiting 5 more hours to see Necrophagist.

aaron, you are going to die in 40 upstairsm. I can't take it up here. INSTANT swamp ass.
dismantle did rule down stairs even though there was no mention of rich bove. wtf! that dude died for your sins.
funny, I went upstairs for mrodisk and there were tons of people down stairs, but not many upstairs.
mordisk sounds killer (plus weed). they are right before you guys (plus weed)

I don't know who the hell was playing downstairs, but it was wyld homo so I went upstairs to listen to Hivesmasher soundcheck. Turns out I made a good decision.
blackguard is pretty tight downstairs. im surprised that the headliners have already started down here. they did in fact mention that their last show was their first us show ever. nice.

Speaking of wyld homo aaron is wearing knee high white socks and didn't even say hi. :(
I wore drews glasses for 1/2 of one song and wanted to puke. the vocals didn't sound right up there unless you were standing in front of the pa.
decrepit birth played either a short set or the shortest set. weird. I think that the singer would fit right in a smoke circle at a phish show. always amazes me when a chilled out dude like that sings for a brutal baby butchering dm band.
acaro want as epic as when it was downstairs, but it was fun. lots of headbanging.
after the burial was a bit more deathcore and a bit less techy than I remember. their bass drops almost made me poop myself. like a punch to the chest.
fallen shall raise were sort of odd for the show, but they played well.
origin sounded "m'eh" does start, but when I went upstairs to the balcony, it as great. crystal clear.
what lies beneath the tide used to be metalcore, but with the new name, they are more deathmetal/core. up against origin, but they had a bunch of friends up there braving the heat.
I almost missed born of osiris cause I was chatting in the office. I ended up coming down with their set in fullswing. the crowd surfers were quite numerous.
upstairs is over now. downstairs is still rocking hard.
winds of plague have come a loong way on all the tours and and member changes. rheir stage presence is 100x better than it used to be. they own that big stage now. reminds me exactly when bleeding through first made the transition from the small to the big stages.
Had a good time. Would have been better if Dying Fetusd and Suffocation were there to play between shitty bands rather than two straight hours of shitty bands, but it was well worth it when Necrophagist came on.
By the way, I disagree with rev because I thought Origin fucking killed.
Origin, Ensiferum and Necrophagist were my faves of the night.
When we played, there was actually a decent amount of people. Not gonna lie and say I wasn't nervous because I definitely was. Once we started going, it was awesome. I hope we can play there again in the future.

was so blitzed when I walked in for Origin, I almost had a seizure. fucking sick set from them. where were all those people for the past few Origin shows that weren't at the paygaydium?
