cemetery piss?  oh, the kids, nowadays.

I am actually friends with someone in that band. 

[Unsanity]

Its cool Acid Witch is on there. I almost went last year, the line up was really good! I know some folks who went and they had a remarkable time. I still would like to see the whole line up before I make any decisions.

I also love the story about how the fest was going to be in some small Pennsylvania town last year but when the locals found out a black metal/heavy metal festival was setting up shop they put the pressure on them to get outta town. Who are these people Puritans? Ha!

[killsaly]

I havent heard all of them yet, but really am digging Acid Witch and Sapremia right now...

[killsaly]

I edited initial post with the complete lineup... I think I am going, at least for part of it.

[killsaly]

Also, the drummer in my new band is in a band playing this, so that is another reason for me to go...

[StoneTheCrow]

Did you slip the Mongolian folk band in there to see if we were paying attention?

Why do I feel like its Ben from At The Graves/Elegabalus. Am I right?

No.  He also plays in Corpse Light.

That is real.  That was copy and pasted from the Facebook event page.

I may just go to see Tengger Calvary, I wanted to drive to NYC to catch them but looks like they're touring now.

I prefer the original version with the production, more metal, and more bass.

[killsaly]

Awesome!  Everyone should go!

[Unsanity]

No.  He also plays in Corpse Light. 
 

Oh ok. I have seen Corpse Light when they opened for Psychic TV. Not too shabby. This line up is solid. I might just have to go for at least some of it.

[killsaly]

The drummer who played with them on that tour (and is still in the band, but was not on the EP), is in my new band.  I actually practice in the same space Corpse Light uses.

I am definitely going for at least some of it... Fields Festival camping fest in August, and then this camping fest in September... alright alright alright

[killsaly]

I swear at some point Vattet Viskar was supposed to play, but I guess not...
