This will be my third year in a row going to MDF. Got my 4 day passes in hand and excited to see Winter, Morgoth, Agalloch, Today is the Day, Negura Bunget and Dragged Into Sunlight.

I really hope they bring back the Natty Bo in the venue this year too. I missed it.

i had to deal with him to book my bands every year for 9 years....and he was a dick! yeah funny enough, the one chick in the band was the one who handled the biz stuff! booked a lot of shows, kept the "band fund", ordered the shirts, set up recording, inked our little baby record deal, ...ahh, all that shit is such a pain. i see why bands have managers! too bad we were never hot enough shit to hire one!

Soooo did you know Don Dekker (RIP) I met him in New Jersey at March metal meltown. Funny guy. very vocal. But seriously they had two stages side by side separated by a curtain at that show. My roomates at the no tell motel (Knights Inn) were Doug Canipe (Chronic Disorder, Anti-Seen) and Chief Spires (ex Nile) . Talk about drunk for 3 days with crazy southern musicians.

Living in Minnesota, I knew Don well. He was a funny guy. Unfortunately though, he was unable to beat the bottle.

Might give some of the other bands a song or two to see if it interests me.

Basically my plan is to browse the merch during all the beginning bands OR hit up that dive bar we went to down the street. It was a fun little hole in the wall.

I was just lurking on the forums before the cruise, so doubt you would have recognized me if you did see me. I had a short drunken conversation with vikingbitch I think one night at karaoke, ironically enough about MDF I think. It was the first year on board for me. MDF is a small festival, so I'm sure I'll see you guys quite often there and I'll say hello because I'm not shy really.

The Sidebar?

It might be called that, I have no idea. You walk down some steps to get into in, real small place. It's on the street adjacent to The Sonar on the right side (assuming you are standing in front of the Sonar and looking at it).

Also, we have a couple of Facebook Groups for 70K, feel free to join those. If you can't find them, I'll send you the links

Yea, send me the facebook group info. I am following the main 70k one and Barge to Hell, but have no groups I'm in on there.

Friday's bands:

GODFLESH
NAPALM DEATH
NASUM
ARTILLERY
NEGURA BUNGET
UNSANE
GHOUL
MACABRE
DEMIGOD
TODAY IS THE DAY
MORGION
NASHGUL
CASTEVET

Not sure it's possible, but wouldn't mind checking out all of them. The only absolutely must no matter what's though are: Macabre, Artillery & Negura Bunget.

by **Bentz!** » Wed Feb 29, 2012 6:49 pm

Those and Morgion, Nasum & Napalm Death are high on my list of bands to see. Never was big on Godflesh, but I'm curious to see them live.

by **KDibildeaux** » Wed Feb 29, 2012 7:35 pm

Damn! I wanna go to Maryland and eat some Chesapeake Bay crabs! was thinking about that today. Holy shit they are delicious!

by **rootleaf** » Sun Mar 04, 2012 2:01 pm

The crab cakes are part of my favorite thing about going to MDF.

by **KDibildeaux** » Sun Mar 04, 2012 4:13 pm

Lucky for you the best ones can be found within walking distance of Sonar.

by **TOM CRUISE** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 9:02 am

The best ones are located in Lexington Market place or whatever it is called. They are HUGE. This is my 4th year to MDF and I eat crab cakes several times during my 5 day stay.

by **Sgt. B** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 9:29 pm

This will be my 4th year at MDF also. Never made it to Lexington Market place. Thanks for the recommendation, I will have to check it out this year.

Your welcome. I hope you like them there. They get the best review. Hell, I even had lump crab cakes at a Italian Restaurant in Little Italy in Balt. and they were killer. :)

by **rootleaf** » Mon Mar 12, 2012 8:21 am

While we are on the subject of food, I would also suggest Chap's Pit Beef. It is not close by, but we took a cab out there last year and it was awesome. They were featured on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives too.

by **WizardBeast** » Mon Mar 12, 2012 2:32 pm

i wish they'd move the fest to a part of the year that isn't so damned hot. nick and i walked all over b-more last year and sweated our asses off.....i really hate that heat/humidity! april would be better LOL

It's funny. When I was younger and we visited our relatives in Maryland in the summer I always thought it was so hot, but then the summer before last I went and it really didn't feel that hot to me anymore, since living in Tucson. Funny how perspectives change

yeah and there's really no shade at that fest either unless you go inside.

You can head out the gates into the parking lot under the overpass for more shade. There you can hear the outdoor stages & hangout with the crusty punks.

by **rootleaf** » Mon Mar 12, 2012 10:41 pm

Yea, heat is relative. The heat at MDF is like going on a winter vacation compared to Austin. We had 70 straight days of triple digits last summer and no rain. Temps were constantly hitting 110+.

Just makes that cold beer taste better!

It was in the high 90's last year and hit 100 by 11 am when I was in the shuttle on the way back to the Airport to go home. In 2009, it was the most killer weather. 75-80 degrees and perfect.

I found a way to deal with them when I was at November to Dismember in San Bernadino CA in 2000. They were actually stalking us metalheads in line for beer and when we left with our beers they would pounce on us with sad faces and empty cups and Beg for some of our expensive beer. My friend tom said "watch this" and a crusty filthy smelly dude asked tom for some of his beer and he said "sure" and took a big sip of it and then spit it all over the guy.

A big time BOO/HISS to this recent batch of cancellations.

No Morgion, Dodheimsgard, or Unanimated.
Setherial, Mortuary Drape, and Pentagram (The one from Chile) are taking the spots.

Don't you normally have about 24 hours to cancel airfare?
