bottom line, more people wouldve went if there was a good headlining band.
people arent going to rush out the door to see their local favorites at 3 pm on a saturday. thats just assinine. If snakenet had a good headlining band...(not some semi-good metal blade band that no ones heard of, and didnt show up), then people would have prolly come out.

Yes, Porphyria drew 26 people, HCN drew 23, thats 2 bands that drew more than 20. Also, as luck would have it, they were also 2 of the 3 first bands.
Do the math...thats 50 people. of 70 total people...
Whats that tell you?

Also, The whole promoting thing...I know We put flyers everywhere, and told as many people as we could about this show, even though, I didnt expect even 10 HCN fans to show due to the early start time.

I strongly believe that a metalfest, should be promoted by the people in charge of the fest, seeing how, in the end, its THEIR show, and it reflects on them.
I also heard some bullshit about not supporting the first day.
some people have lives. They cannot go to a club on the day before they have to be at the same club at 1pm. Especially when it got turned into, 'which day will draw more' contest. Some bands practiced friday night, so that they were primed and ready for the saturday show.

As for that, bands were told to show up 2 hours before they played. We were there at 1 pm, waiting. The snakenet people didnt even show up till 2:30!!!! Ur so metal, that youre an hour and a half late to your own show!

I have no problems with anyone on this, but Im stating pure, fact.
and the sound sucked balls.
