So my band played Mayhem Festival in Hartford Ct.

...and this is what i walked out onto the stage to.

the feeling to play to about 7000 rabid screaming people really cant be described.

Going to work Monday morning totally sucked out loud.

That is all.

I see that crowd pic and the first thing I thought was "I only wear black until they make something darker"

Sweet congrats man,

If you don't mind me asking how much does something like that pay?

not to be an ass, but there used to be a great hardcore band called Unbroken.

And they have a Wiki site and copyrighted albums as well.

I guess google wasn't used when deciding.

bazzhed4 · #12 08-30-2008, 11:29 PM

Please...not here. I will not get into the Unbroken Discussion here. I expect it on myspace....but not here.

i just wanted to share my experience with my fellow bottom dwellers.

Nice. I'd love to look out and see that size crowd.
I bet most of the audience had a pretty bad sunburn after spending the previous 364 days in their parents' basement.

I would guess a Custom 24, of course it is a bit dangerous of an assumption that just because it's a metal band he would go for the 24 fret over the 24. Either way those are great guitars. Are those cabs facing the drummer? If so that is some serious monitoring.

yes those are monitors facing the drummer. we played on the jagermeister mobile stage

and to answer someones question from earlier...i guess if we were a national touring band or if we were actually on the tour the whole time...it would pay decent...but we were the Jager band for the hartford ct stop. we only played the one show and there was no money involved. we sold merch...thats how we made our money. they let us set up a merch tent with the rest of the major label bands on the side stages and when we got done with our set...we went to the jager tent to sign autographs...(yeah..i know...funny huh)...then to our tent. We hung out there..wathced the other bands from our tent while selling merch and cd's it was a surreal day.
