It should be. They were trying to get Malevolent Creation as well since the last time they were here they got screwed over on their set and had to cut it short, so this was kind of an opportunity to right a wrong, but I guess that didn't pan out.

I've never heard of any of these bands you speak of, but still. Sixteen bands for $20? Even if they all suck (which is unlikely, with 16 of them), it'd be worth it.

The last time I went to an event like this, it was the same scenario. 16 bands, $20. A lot of them sucked, but the ones that were good really made up for it. The only thing that really bugs me about it is this is going to be the third time I've seen Estuary and to be honest, I don't get the hype over them. They came out of nowhere, have one CD out that's the epitome of mediocre and everyone acts like it's a breakthrough in music. The first time I liked them, the second time I was bored. I'm afraid to see them again for a fear that I might start throwing things at them.

i'm going to see Destruction in a couple months,,,,i did not know they still existed..you probably would enjoy this Cryptic :D
