Maryland Deathfest attendees forced out of Sonar and some maced?

Anybody going to Maryland Deathfest this year and if so, what days/venues? 

Right now I am thinking about going to the thrash and death metal heavy Saturday show at the Edison Lot.

I go every year. It's always so good and fun. I discover new bands every year and regret the years I only bought single day tix. I'll be there all 4 this year. Did all 4 last year and it was amazing.

Thursday night at Ram's Head will be great this year. You should consider hitting that.

I have tickets for Thursday at Ram's Head. Weedeater and Buzzov-en on the same day! Double dose of Dixie Dave! Everyone else is awesome too except The Offering who keep changing their members and even their name. I hope they are decent.

Also got Saturday Ram's Head tix because Saturnalia Temple is amazing. I also plan on hitting the Edison Lot on Sunday for Bongzilla, Venom, Serpent Throne, etc.

I too go every year and see some great bands and meet interesting people.

[Got Haggis?]

Yeah, I'll probably go Sunday

I made a mix of all the artists playing at Edison Lot on Saturday (my only definite).  I might do the Thursday night Rams Head one as well.  The mix/day is mostly thrash and death metal.

The set times are out...

[Got Haggis?]

Looks like I'm not going at all this year. Friends best party Sunday (seriously who schedules a bday party on memorial day weekend, how terrible ) and hitting up the regional burning man event Friday and Saturday (Playa del Fuego)

[killsaly]

Too bad!  I am planning on attending Thursday Rams Head, Saturday Edison, and Monday Post Post at Ottobar (depending on how boating goes that day)...

[killsaly]

Oh shit, Zhrine just got added as a replacement to Sunday RHL!  Their first ever North American show!

[blipvurt]

I was really looking forward to seeing Svartidauði but that is an epic replacement they've booked in Zhrine!

[Unsanity]

I'm a a bit bummed both Serpent Throne and Destroyer 666 cancelled for Sunday. I may not go to Edison Lot that day now. Bongzilla and Venom are still there and so is Demolition Hammer but I just don't know...

[killsaly]

Venom was the only band on that lineup that I wanted to see.  I was thinking about Edison lot on Friday too, but do not want to pay $65 and only want to see Centinex, Mayhem, Horrendous, Khold, and the Haunted.

[Unsanity]

Horrendous play this area a lot but I have a feeling their performance at MDF will really turn some heads.

[killsaly]

See everyone soon!

Too bad Dopethrone cancelled for tonight.  I should be there from the middle of Crypt Sermon's set until almost the end of Weedeater...

The Offering 6:00 to 6:35
Crypt Sermon 6:55 to 7:30
Buzzov*en 7:50 to 8:35
Bongripper 8:55 to 9:40
Weedeater 10:00 to 10:50
Claudio Simonetti's Goblin 11:10 to 12:00
Earth 12:25 to 1:30

Day 1 down. I was able to catch Buzzoven, Bongripper, Ratboiler, Corpse Light, and Triac.

Bongripper was the best.

It was cool finally seeing Corpse Light live (their drummer plays in my band too).
