certainly gives some wonder about what will happen to MDF?

Hmmmmmmm...

I chuckled heartily.

oh... no...

I will fucking kill everyone responsible if this impedes my ability to see Neurosis.

I don't care about a single band, I care about the entire fest. WTF!

HAHAHA

faaaaaaaaaaaaahk

I do believe that from the start, MDF was booked at a different venue this year. Did you see that when you got tickets and booked a hotel near Sonar?

the flyer clearly states that its being held at sonar.

from Facebook:

Evan Harting
Yes Sonar is shutting down, and NO, MDF is not canceled. CALM DOWN.
about a minute ago

Guess they have a backup plan or are working on it.

I'm pretty positive that Evan and Ryan would have known about this already and would already be planning for it.

they didnt know about it, they just found out.

MDF Facebook says they already have an alternative site if Sonar doesn't work out

....and more info is expected to be posted on Friday

GONNA GET DOWN ON FRIDAY

"Yes, we know about Sonar. It was just brought to our attention. Please DO NOT panic. The festival will still go on as planned. If Sonar does not end up working, we already have a alternative site in the same area that would have a similar set up, so you do not need to worry, and you do not need to consider changing plans. More info about this is expected to be posted on Friday."

HAR HAR BEAT YOU!!

they always used to run into these snags the first couple years and always made it happen, ussually for the better. settle down girls

this guy looks like a grade A buttdart

There is nothing quite like panties in a ruffle.

I hope any possible replacement venue has an area to accommodate a multitude of crustlord traveler cunts. I'll be needing comedic relief in such humid, oppressive weather.

bloody crust punk crotch!

I'm sure that with the sheer number of crusties combined with the heat, you'd be able to smell them for miles.

You guys do realize there's a difference between crust fans and traveling hobo punks, right?

Nae. Lines are usually blurred these days.

If that was directed at me, yes, I do know there's a difference. I was referring to the hobos.

Did MDF died?

Directed at multiple people

Never went to MDF. Someone give me the synopsis on why this place sucked plz.

It's located in Baltimore.

R.I.P. MDF

Nothing about MDF sucks. Best weekend of the whole year hands down. The first year I went, it was in a shitty venue, but was so awesome I needed to go again.

Was MDF III @ The House of Rock the 1st year for you?

this is gonna be the biggest cluster fuck of a memorial day weekend hahahaahahah have fun at the scene fest

Ticket Resolved.

For the win

Absolutely, if you're planning on having a shitty time then don't go!

BTW I'm too lazy to dig up proof but I swear on baby Mohammad I saw it was at a different venue than Sonar months ago when I was debating going. I think they said "it might not be at Sonar but it will be close enough"

A gymasium separated into four stage areas by a curtain should do the trick. Easy fix.

Sonar was sweet cuz I never received a single pat down and snuck in about 2 zips of weed and probably about a 30 rack of beer over the past 2 years. I just hated the heat inside the club and staring right into the sunset when a band was playing outside.

Zing!

I just hope the new venue is still walking distance from the red light district

"Ryan Taylor: find new venue. check."

How is it a "Scene Fest" mr underground grind guy??? do you dislike every single band on that bill? not enough cool bands for YOU?
suck a dick

Cathedral, Coroner,Acid Witch and Hooded Menace could just play here in Mass instead. That would work for me.

no the line up is killer i just hate the cool guy crowd that shows up. 'im more grind than you" no your not im more grind" "i hate crusty kids" and i could count endless people there sporting the "hitler stash: trying to be the most offensive person there. its a scene fest and people go to be apart of the sceneary and not the scene.

PS ill suck your dick till it hurts buddy

Sonar will be re-opening before MDF, and technically they already have. These last couple of days have been incredibly confusing and stressful, but we are currently back to the regularly scheduled program. And don't worry, beyond plan B is a plan C, because that's how we roll. See you in a couple of weeks.

been going since 2006, never experienced what you're saying. I've made friends and met shit tons of great people. mdf is nothing but quality, that's why it gets the crowd. trendy? grow up, even thinking in those terms is juvenile. There is no scene, most people travel to see amazing bands they can't otherwise see.

oh and, I hate crust kids. Repulsion is the second greatest band ever just behind Impetigo.

complaining about anything other than the music of a particular "scene" is complete faggotry and perpetrators should kill themselves immediately. there is always going to be "that guy" or "that girl" or "those people". deal with it.

so psyched for this, my first trip to MDF, and going all 4 days. definitely relieved the venue issues seem cleared up. Saturday looks like the day of all days, in one 8 hour period I will see Cianide, Nunslaughter, Doom, Exhorder, Acid Witch, Hooded Menace and Inquisition!!

my only complaint about this fest is that i'm too broke to make it there.

The trendy scene kids bullshit that I have seen is just people only spouting bs. Everyone I have ever talked to at the event is just there to have a good time. Inflatible animals and all. Repulsion was good, but I thought autopsy and entombed stole the show.

This year, I'm fully expecting exhoder to steal the show even though coroner is the band I'm most hyped up for.

I had no idea what I would think of the crowd when I went to MDF but really, it's a gathering of weird motherfuckers. There's nothing I couldn't possibly like. And like it's been said before, if you stop going to shows because of the other people who go, then you're a huge faggot and you're there for the wrong reasons.

autopsy 100% , Pentagram also, i can't wait for the DVD to come out. My bald head should be some place in there.

of all shows and festivals and gatherings in the world, if "scene kids" are a problem at MDF then you're literally out of your mind or aren't even an underground metalhead - it's that simple.

MDF last year was one of the best metal events of my life (and my first underground death metal show was in 1992), enhanced by the fact that the ratio of obvious "real heads" to "non-real heads" (<- i know that sounds dumb) was as high as you could ever hope for at any show, ever.
