Why don't many metal bands come through NO?

For a large tour run or festival.
Is it because of the low market we have?

Yeah dude. It would just be me and you there. But it upsets me too.

There are no metal festivals in New Orleans. Siberia books a lot of metal but that's a really small place. The HOB is too small for bands like LOG, Mastodon, Megadeth, etc. They book a lot of screamo bands, which is apparently what kids are calling metal these days.

This is puzzling to me. I grew up in New Orleans in the mid to late 1990s and was an active venue crawler in south Louisiana until about 2005. From my point of view, NOLA had tons of metal .... Down, EYEHATEGOD, Goatwhore, Crowbar, Soilent Green, amongst many, many others. Maybe the scene has changed, but in my day it was rad.

As far as large scale metal festivals, mayhem is really the only big one left. It really only does amphitheaters which nola doesn't have. Like they said Hob and Siberia still have shows, but imo are not advertised well. I slipped upon a dillinger escape plan show may 6th at one eye Jacks. Not advertised well at all.

Because Satan is afraid of vampires.
