Ooooh, phat!

nemhf>?

hmm, Valient Thorr sounds awesome

I thought the same thing. I hope not. I want to see baroness play more than 20 mins and not at 4pm in between as blood runs black and arsonists get all the girls.

FRIDAY APRIL 23 & SATURDAY APRIL 24 @ THE PALLADIUM IN WORCESTER, MA

The New England Metal and Hardcore Festival will enter year 12 this April with an eclectic mixture of bands from the metal and hardcore genres. Returning to the Palladium in Worcester, Mass., the event will take place on Friday, April 23 and Saturday, April 24, with an extra special pre-party on Thursday, April 22.

Looks like I'm going to CT or VT then.

I can not miss another one of these awesome tours involving Mastodon. I've never seen them and although they're not my absolute favorite I need to catch them when they're with these pretty sweet lineups! Plus the Palladium is 10 times easier for me than anything else.

Ill be at the hartford show.

awesome tour, I'll probably go to the Worcester date...would be cool as a part of nemhf.

Mastodon is pretty awesome live. Superduper when they play the Tin Lizzy cover.

makes so much more sense to go to that one rather than wasting money at shitfest in worcester.

yea, gay that this tour is on NEMHF...the point of seeing Mastodon and Baroness live is so they can play for a long time...a 20 minute Baroness set and a 40 minute Mastodon set just won't cut it

I've never been able to get into Mastodon. Are they really that good live? Baroness, i dig. BTBAM, meh. Valient THorr, just heard and went to their MySpace would see them for realz, sounds fun. So 25$ for two definite bands and two meh? The tour is hitting Columbia Missouri, only 2 hours and change for me.
RTTP, WHAT SAY YOU!

Last time I saw them they covered "The bit" by the Melvins..... insane

What other bands will be at the fest ?

Disembodied and that's all that matters.

mastodon can headline I think. probably getting an hour. fuck, didn't black dahlia murder get an hour one year?
