I remember when they even pretended to be a metal band (regardless of artistic merit).

That would kick some serious arse, but yes, odd to say the least....

Never dug them. Like my metal black or death. Or blackened death.

I'd like to see goatwhore play, doubt they'd go for that though.

this is a must watch if only to see what kind of crowd shows up for this spectacle.

They put on a good show, but their fans are kinda weird.

Slipknot has some good music if your into metal.

From all that I have heard live of them(they have material) they sound very good live for a band of their sound IMO

This is a pretty decent pull. Odd they play a Jazz Fest date though.

It'd be odd if they played the Fairgrounds, but all genres have been represented at Jazz Fest late nights for quite some time now.

Yeah Heady but 8 pm isn't really late night.

Anything post-Fairgrounds is considered late night.

You sure you wouldnt rather slip your fingers into your eyes? It might be the only thing that slowly stops the ache, unfortunately however, that ache is made up of all the things you have to take.

I mean seriously dude, jesus, it never ends. It works its way inside.

My initial thought exactly, but Nola.com had an article awhile back stating that Champions Square was creating a concert series that would draw big acts.

Hopefully this draws even more huge metal acts that tend to pass New Orleans up all the time on touring runs.

The last time they played New Orleans was 10 years ago. It was a great show too. Hopefully Champions Square can turn into a legit outdoor venue.
