So I guess we're just supposed to think the lineup is awesome no matter who they put on it,

Well looking at the lineup so far, I don't think you really have much room to bitch. They're pretty much all bands I know people here love. So what if they have bands you don't like, they're going to have bands EVERYONE doesn't like. The fest isn't put together to make one person happy, it's put together to make a lot of different groups happy, and I think they do the best they can.

and not discuss the fest unless we have something constructive to say. Obviously anything anyone suggests is going to ruin the fest financially,

Way to be a drama queen, because this is just an idiotic thing to say. Go ahead and bitch all you want, it just looks fucking retarded. You don't like the show, cool, don't go. Simple as that.

and we should just be appreciative of all day Metalcore shows, cause they are a true blessing from above.

#1. It has NEVER been an all day metalcore show. Way to grossly exaggerate buddy.

#2. Even if I gave you the fact that last years show wasn't that good, I'm still going to say I had a great time regardless. Sometimes shows are about the atmosphere as much as the music. I went and saw a lot of people I was friends with and had a great time, and that's what it should be all about. I guarantee you they add more bands that you like and even more that you don't like. If that is worth spending the money then go, if it's not, wait for the bands to come back...

#3. Yes, you should be thankful that shit like this happens in your back yard. In Australia, they're lucky if bands like King Diamond come there once in their lifetime. Metal fan in every country in Asia but Japan will more than likely NEVER see ANY of their favorite band. Same deal with metal fans in the Middle East or Africa and a lot of South American countries as well. People from all those countries would KILL to have a fest like NEMHF every year. It all comes down to the spoiled nature of the New England scene. Every band comes here, so we expect too much.

I've got an idea. Since you guys can obviously do a better job putting on a fest then the people with NEMHF, why don't you do one? You can fly in every band you want to and book all the TROO metal bands and absolutely no metalcore. Metalcore bad, troo metal, GOOD! You can have bands drive in from all over the place and pay them extra for going out of their way to do it so you don't have to book any tours. Just let me know how it works out.
