maybe you should put some maine bands that are actually heavy on this.

Is this bill coming any closer to Boston that that?

josh, you can ride pink elephants up to this show.

already got tickets!

Josh_Martin said:

Portland, Maine on Wed, Aug 2nd is the only SYL offdate headlining show in New England with Goatwhore as direct support.

with a bunch of nu-metal bands opening. AWESOME!

yeah weive got some pretty heavy bands up here, since we've never heard of anything that isn't currently or was at some point on roadrunner except for pantera.

THE NAME NU METAL IS GAY. THEY MUST BE PRETTY GOOD OR THEY WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN CHOSEN TO PLAY AND THEY HAVE A HUGE DRAW OF FANS... I'VE HEARD THEM BOTH AND THEY KICK ASS. WHERE DID YOU SEE THEM PLAY?

nobodycaresatall said:

having a huge draw is only important to promoters, insane clown posse has a huge draw of fans does that mean theyre good

THE FANS THAT GO OBVIOULSY THINK THEY ARE GOOD AND THAT'S WHAT MATTERS, RIGHT?

nobodycaresatall said:

WRONG! you care, thats who

WWW.MYSPACE.COM/VERTIGOD

WWW.MYSPACE.COM/RUIN

vertigod sucks

ANONYMOUS POSTERS SUCK

stop making fun of this show or they will sue you for slander.

NAH, I'M SURE THEY LIKE THE PUBLICITY. THIS IS SYL'S ONLY OFFDATE OZZFEST SHOW IN NEW ENGLAND, SO THE SHOW WILL BE SOLD OUT ANYWAY AND VERTIGOD WILL BE THE ONE'S LAUGHING... HUMBLY OF COURSE

Just for the record, I suspect that this show will not come even close to selling out. I suppose I could be wrong, but thats what I suspect. If it does sell out, it will be because SYL are on Ozzfest. That is what Ozzfest os for. Making bands big. If this show had been a year ago, it would not have ever been booked in Maine because it would have been impossible to draw enough people, and if I were in SYL (or who ever is in charge of booking their shows on their end) I would simply take the offer from the Palladium (assuming there was one) because down there there would be plenty of people that would go, maybe enough to play downstairs and keep in mind we're talking about a year ago, before they were on Ozzfest. And last I heard, vertigod did suck.

SYL didn't even draw well head lining last year at the palladium. it was either. downstairs at the palladium is empty with 375 in it.
I don't think they even did that well.

THEIR NEW ALBUM, THE NEW BALCK, SEEMS TO BE SELLING VERY WELL. I HAVE IT AND IT ROCKS. DEVIN IS THE MAN!

nobodycaresatall said:

I second that!

I can't dis VERTIGOD, Seeing as it has Ex-members of one of the best bands to come from portland, RARE FORM.

PS - Maine's heaviest band was and always will be MOLESTED SENSES

None of these opening bands are even remotely heavy. I hope Maine has some heavier music to offer than this nu-metal crap. (Isn't Porphyria from Maine? Why are they not on this bill?)

Ocean and Conifer are both from Maine and i'd say they're both HEAVY !

They are both far heavier than any of the opening bands on this bill, that is for sure.

your opninion

nobodycaresatall said:


Fuck I got SYL's new album the other day and it's the shit! ... def going to that show. that's going to be sick

anonymous said:

no it's not an opinion its a dead on fact that OCEAN and CONIFER are the heaviest things to come outta the state of Maine.

deal with it.

not the point of the topic... maine metal scene always write that they have Maine's heaviest bands. Conifer played on their bill, they rotate opening acts. This isn't a debate

besides GOATWHORE it isnt a very good show either.

why is their a Goatwhore banner on this website? The Rev must like them

Or they must have paid for ad space.

Metal guy said:

ok first off i know your spelling is horrid, but please learn to read. as i clearly stated GOATWHORE was the only good thing about your retarded show.

yeah, that's maybe true

RichHorror said:

you mean record companies have promotion people out there doing that for the bands they sign.

well goddamn

It's the damndest thing.

maybe it was done for free... ask the Rev, not that it really matters anyway... just bored

keenest richard, keenest.

we do not promote that type of language on this forum

whiskey_weed_and_women said:

Contridictive

whiskey_weed_and_women said:

You're definately contridictive

and it's not my show. I'm not in a band. I'm just happy I don't have to hike to Ozzfest to see SYL play for 20 min when I can see them in Portland for 1/12!!!

60 % of the time, it works everytime

THE NEW STRAPPING YOUNG LAD IS AMAZING! ONCE AGAIN, HOGLAN LAYS DOWN SOME OF THE SICKEST EFFIN' DRUMMIES!!

TIM JOHN OUT

Tim_John said:

fucking right, gene kicks ass.. all of SYL does. best band on Ozzfest (my opinion).

whiskey_weed_and_women said:

Have you seen their tour schedule lately? Everynight there is a show. Some people can be so jealous it's sad

I'm going to be photographing thid little event. should be a gret time. I'm getting a root canal done in the morning too! horay!

my tickets says no cameras allowed. SYL has their own photogs

"SYL has their own photogs"

that would be me.

anonomous said:

Christ, learn to read. He's saying that the only reason to go is Goatwhore. Fuck.

shh theyre from Maine, they dont read so well.

the_reverend said:


I'm just checking in to see if the fake Maine Metal Scene profile has been taken down yet with the UNTRUE statements from people posing as me. IT APPEARS THAT IT HAS NOT. SHAME ON YOU AARON. Bottom line: There is only one photographer allowed in the SYL/Goatwhore show. IT'S NOT THE REVEREND. NO CAMERAS ALLOWED. TAYLOR MADE SECURITY HAS BEEN INFORMED TO NOT LET ANYONE IN WITH A PROFESSIONAL CAMERA AND THEY KNOW WHO THE REV IS. THE REV HAS NO SAY IN THIS, BECAUSE I AM THE TALENT BUYER. NO METAL BLADE PASS AND/OR CENTURY MEDIA PASS ALLOWED UNLESS IT'S APPROVED BY ME. TALK ALL THE NASTY THINGS YOU WANT ABOUT ME IN HERE, I'M OUT. THIS IS A MESSAGE FOR THR REV. DON'T WASTE YOUR TRIP TO THE SHOW, BECAUSE SECURITY WILL BE LOOKING FOR YOU. THIS IS NOT A THREAT, IT'S JUST A FACT. YOU MADE FUN OF STRAPPING YOUNG LAD IN A PUBLIC FORUM , NOW YOU CAN'T ATTEND. THIS IS A NASTY FORUM THAT I WILL NOT TAKE PART IN SO THE REV WILL NOT TAKE PICTURES AT MY SHOW.

haha

and Maine Strikes Back

LEIGH RUSH said:

hahahahahahahahaha

God I hope that's really her. I've been bored this week...

dood she totally capp'd his ass.

the_reverend said:

And me, although my camera is very, VERY broken, so I will be using a nice high quility top of the line disposable camera. They don't get any better then that.

LEIGH RUSH said:

Well, SYL are their own biggest detractors, so will they not be playing.

I must have missed where REV made fun of SYL...I just read this whole thread,That chick is a fucktard.Want my name so I can't go either now?

i wonder if it's the right IP.

the_reverend said:

Liar

yeah Rev. You are such a lair.

bump

Ex Megadeth and Iced Earth bassist will be filling in for SYL. That's dude's a good bass player... heard it on blabbermouth

BogusRendition said:


Go suck a big cock

BogusRendition said:

since we're talking in THAT language... you are gay. So there.

LEIGH RUSH said:
wow..who the fuck do you think you are?
howdare you be disrespectful to a guy who has done a lot for local metal.
you think you can stop him from getting a camera in the venue? haha

as a sidenote, you're not very bright since he did fix the thread...

this has gone way too far..time for me to get involved

anonomous said:



^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Who is this fucking dumbass, bunghole sucking dork anyway? "They have their own photogs?" It's a double edge sword. The tard doesn't realize that Rev does over half of the pics for all of these bands, and he likes "Two Sided Season"....biggest Nu-Metal crap band anywhere up here. I see them at the Brickhouse all the time....they can play 6 chords and not one riff, and they have clean vocals.....STAIND??? EWWWWWW.........

Would the real Leigh Rush please stand up? Please stand up.....

Would the real Leigh Rush's boyfriend with the gay orange nu-metal beard please stand up, please stand up?

Hahahahah....someone needs to hire a real promoter, and not an overly sensitive cunt of a woman.

I think it may be worth noting that that post had a suspisious ring to it that sorta parralels that other post that the guy from 13 winters wrote.

I would like to thank Lee Rush for never getting back to me awesome I guess BMR isn't good enough for Maine we'll have to stick to getting shows shutdown in No Cho cause we are too brutal apparently man I am glad a band like Porphyria ,HCN or Goreality didnt play that show or I might be in jail hahahahaha! I wanna fucking play Maine

BY THE WAY the Rev is way more Metal than Leigh Rush oh yea and how that saying go Internet does not equal reality Ms Rush so chill jesus!

Dorks. everyone and their mother wanted on that bill. She can't have eveyone on it. Vertigod and others deserverd it. Leave Mike and Leigh alone

oh yeah, Leigh told me that SYL contract said no professional cameras allowed for the record

Mike is a fag, and Leigh is a dirty old cunt. Tell Mike that his nu-metal beard rules....if you're in Mudvayne.

Scott Ian has one and Dimebag did too and their not nu metal

Scott Ian does not have a day-glo orange goatee. And Diamond Darrel is dead. Dying your facial hair gay colors gets you killed.

it's red, that's why they call him redbeard... maybe your color blind

And maybe he's a flagrant homosexual.

vertigod fan said:

First off I could give a fuck less about this show only band that's good on it is GOATWHORE I meant playing in Maine period I gave Leigh all my info and waited patiently how unprofessional of her to blow me off someone who has been nothing but respectful. I just wanted to Play in MY HOME OF MAINE but that's too much to ask.

vertigod fan said:


You seriously are a fucking idiot.

Must be some contract!!! I wonder why they didn't have it in any of these contracts???....or....are you just a bullshit artist??

Shall I keep going with these?? My hand is getting tired of cutting and pasting already.


You see what a moron you're making of yourself?? Buzz off.

Call me Mike... I just sent you an e-mail

RichHorror said:

Rich may disagree but DIME was the man. But he can disagree asshole played with the almighty GHOUL! only thing that beats that is IMPALED!

I was actually referring to this Mike tool. As time went on I liked the music Pantera was doing less and less, but I can't argue that the man knew his way around a fretboard.

Also, Ghoul are the most down to Earth genuine motherfuckers on the planet. And as an added bonus, none of them fucked anyone on my couch when they slept over.

I'm waiting for my phone to ring, Mike Griffin

ENGORGED is better then impaled. Impaled is good though.

The Rev has my number too. I would like to speak with you too, please.

Thank you Rev Aaron for fixing the phony profile and topic. I just checked it. I never bash bands and I would never tell other promoters not to book a band so thank you for fixing that.

hoser said:

Well,well, well, see for yourself... no professional cameras.

bogus rendition said:

You lie noone is better than IMPALED NOONE the triple vocal onslaught is unmatched and Ross Sewage owns everyone!

you know ben and jerry's apple pie ice cream is probably the greatest thing in the world.

but those are just my thoughts on this matter.

I had mentioned that there are no cameras allowed for the SYL show. That means PROFESSIONAL cameras... you can bring your own "amateur" cameras. Sorry for the miscommunication.

Morbid_Mike said:

I'm afraid I must insist that EGORGED is better. Despite Impaled being one of the best Carcass rip offs ever, ENGORGED is better, even before "where monsters dwell" came out. "White Line Nightmare" is so fucking rad that it's not even funny. Plus it's about Mad Max. "Cobra Rage" as well. Anything with samples of Destro and Cobra Comander and the Baroness is hands down fucking rad. Then we have where monsters dwell, the most perfect metal album ever. The only album that Ive ever felt I could say that anyone that thinks they like heavy music at all and doesnt like it is dumb. Everything on it is perfect. I just can't say that about anything by Impaled. The rock by all means, but their songs are just not as strong and their samples unfortunately bore me. I think song about pirates are cooler then songs about disecting people.


Darkest tale ever told
sweet pussie lovely gold
we sail the ocean blue
blood thirsty cut throat crew...

anyways, this time Im REALLY going to bed.

NECRO-PORNO IS HOW THE UNDEAD MASTURBATE

bogus rendition said:

Yea but Impaled does all thier own samples so A for effort and like I said Ross Sewage is #1 but they did a split together so they both rule and I am quite sure atleast one member of either band has played in the other band. And they are not a CARCASS rip off they simply play old school styled death grind.

"I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick ass!"

You know what would be really cool? If they did another tour together. And it would be even cooler if they came over this way.

I can't believe I am missing IMPALED SEVERED SVAIOR AND ORIGIN

really. on the 19th?

Morbid_Mike said:

*cough, cough*, Mr. Griffin be nice

Leigh Rush said:

Hey this is old anyway as much as everyone wants to talk shit I do have to give credit to Leigh for doing some work to get somekind of decent metal scene in Maine and trust me it's not easy I spent many years myself single handedly converting people to the greats like Cryptopsy and Dying Fetus even got some of my Jazz teachers to have an appreciation for Candiria(old shit) So here's your credit Leigh just don't run this shit in to the ground cause its the bands who make you and everyone else not vice versa and we work fucking hard considiring its money out of our pockets to make cd's shirt's gas to shows equipment and we don't even get paid do I care hell no the expierence is great. So cheers to all the fucks who make it worth a damn !

Yea don't know how the fuck I got posted under smiling potatoe but hey why not

Right on dude. I ALWAYS pay the openign acts a commssion on ticket sales and I NEVER take merch money. I take good cAre of my opening acts and I give them drink tickets too! I'm totally for local music and I know how importlant they are to me.

And there is always a guest list for the bands + inclusion on statewide TV and radio ads. I'm cool dude.

Goatwhore are one of the lamest bands Ive seen.Right up there with Fintroll,Terrible Night for a Curse and Black Stone Valley Crew

wow, you sure go out of your way to make negative comments. And for what?

goatwhore really? i never cared for there recordings, but whenever they play live its kickass(or at least the 2 times i've seen them).

brian_dc said:

probably for conversation

both friday and saturday goatwhore was freakin rad down at Marks Show Place. They were so good that both nights I was wondering how Suffo was gonna top them, even though in the end, they blew them away both nights, but goatwhore were still really rad. Hadn't seen em since the nile/kreator tour. I think goatwhore's CD's are pretty good, but they are way better live. The new stuff they played was pretty sweet. Should be pretty cool again on wednesday. Ben will be quizing everyone on when the new CD comes out so you better know the date, otherwise everyone'll think your fucking gay.

BogusRendition said:

Goatwhore arnt in the same league as Suffocation

eddie said:

One of the 100% acceptable answers.

I like Goatwhore.. can't wait to see then live

Does anybody know how Mark's went? Were they cool live?

although i think a lot of people believe them to be somewhat boring live, ben falgoust is definetly one of metal's better frontman IMO.

sweet to know. I wonder why people think their boring?

ben's performace in front of soilent green made me actually like them.

SYL ruled yesterday and goatwhore last friday. tonight is going to be a great show.

I will have free copies of BR#7 at this. Come find me if you'd like one.

the_reverend said:

SOLD.

I'll take Goatwhore over Suffocation any day.

dunwich said:

theyre both good, but in the end, as the dude above said it, goatwhore is not in the same leage as Suffo, and I bet they'd be the first to tell you that.

I'm leaving now.. or maybe I'm just a lying.

I can appreciate the fact that Suffocation is much more influential and that they're talented musicians that are more technically proficient, but I can't say that I ever have the urge to put on a Suffocation cd.

this convo is like saying "goatwhore isn't in the same league with travis tritt" or "suffocation isn't in the same league with willie nelson"

still, I would be hard pressed to put in a travis tritt CD or listen to a full willie nelson CD"
