BDx13 - 7-8-2005 at 01:11 PM

You going?

Thats Life - 7-8-2005 at 01:17 PM

posi numbers without a doubt. Way less money. way less bullshit. Way better lineup.

Discipline - 7-8-2005 at 01:57 PM

Neither. Too far, too much money.

Hellfest has a lot of bands I would see but I just can't get into the whole Hellfest idea. The crowds at both would be fucking terrible, the atmosphere at the american shows I have been to has been complete shit. You're always afraid some retard is gonna decide that the mosh pit isn't where he wants to mosh so he runs around the edge of the pit punching people int he face.
Fuck that shit. I would never go to either show especially after what happened at last years posi show.

There's too many fuckin retards in hardcore today.

why, what happened?

Yeah, what happened?:o

I can only say what happened from what Ive heard second hand, but a bunch of kids got sent to the hospital during Terror's set. A friend said that FSU took over the dance floor and posi kids dont mix well with the dancing style of FSU. That's all second hand info though.

LIFETIME IS PLAYING A REUNION AT HELLFEST..........................

KyleOz - 7-18-2005 at 08:54 PM

Hey moron my phone is being severely reatrded, I wanted to call and see about getting plans made regarding posi.


I went to hellfest last year for merauder and a few other bands. Other than that, hellfest was mediocre. I still had a good time though.

I mainly though to hang with friends. One of the best weekends I ever had. Hopefully posi will be just as good.

Hardcore is angry, not posi. Or at least it should be.

Positive Numbers is the name of the dude who does the fests old "crew" i believe. It's not like a big positive festival.

I'm all for people having fun and getting out aggression, but not to the point where someone else gets hit so hard they go into seizures.

I've definetly hit some people pretty hard by accident but i've always been quick to apologize and make sure the persons allright. I notice a lot of kids at moshier shows get off on that shit. The ego's invoved with mosh shows is out of this world.

I was referring to last year's Posi#s, but it is a pretty widespread thing depending on the show. I know you are a good egg, Dan.

Thats Life - 7-19-2005 at 10:58 AM

i didn't see what happened last year. As much as i do like terror that long hallway made it not worth walking in for them.

I didn't hear about seizures just some guys eye g etting demolished.

I agree with that, but hotel parties are suppose to fun.

At least if I room with moron I won't have to worry about the shit like at our hotel room in hellfest.




moron - 7-19-2005 at 03:49 PM

hahaha

a friend put peanut butter on my face while I was passed out drunk. That's the worst Ive ever gotten. I guess my friend's arent assholes.

Kyle... Im still on the fence regarding posi numbers. hahaha I cant make a decision for the life of me.

KyleOz - 7-19-2005 at 03:56 PM

No pressure man.

Six66Mike - 7-19-2005 at 09:52 PM

Theres a difference between deliberate hitting & accidental hitting when you mosh. I got kick in the face & blood gushed everywhere a couple months ago but the dude apologised right away and came up to me later offering to buy me a drink and shit. Thats fine but when dudes run around the pit punching & kicking people in the face & beating them beyond the point of submission for any reason is fucking bullshit. Join a boxing club and stay out of hardcore shows.
And I'm sick of the argument "man you shoulda seen hardcore in the early 80s when people got stabbed & it was way more violent".
Well thats good for the 80s, obviously since then people started to smarten up a bit and had respect for people at shows. Lets not lose that & go back to the way it was.

I don't think I could ever go to Hellfest, too many people, too much money and there's probably only 4 bands I would care to see.

I would love to go to Posi, especially the Saturday show to see Underdog, but I have too much going on in my life right now. UD, Bold, Mental, Triple Threat, Justice, Charge, Iron Boots, Mind Eraser..awesome line up.
