Oh yeah, I set up this show at Skid Row Garage. Go buy tickets to it because 100 % of the proceeds to to Not One More - York Chapter which is an organization that helps people overcome opioid addiction (and also helps their families). I have known far too many people who have died from opioid addiction and I bet you do too.
Go watch some metal bands and support a good cause. I originally set up this show just as a way to celebrate the end of my MBA program and to mark a milestone birthday -- but I would rather host if for the cause. These are all some of my favorite bands and genres of metal.
Bands playing include:
Archael
Úzkost
Barbelith
Cultic
Zauberei
Cryptid Tears

If I invited you to come camping with me in West Virginia next September (2025) and said there might be a handful of bands playing, would you want to come? If that's something you want to know more about go to this form and submit your email.

If your band has a show and you don't promote it somehow -- either on social media, texting your friends, your websites, e-newsletter, or even by posting printed flyers in the town where it's happening, then you are part of "what's wrong with the scene."
I said what I said.

Despite the fact that I organized six multiday metal fests with a variety of fairly well-known and up-and-coming bands and 100+ smaller shows over about 10 years, that I have been "critically" listening to music for as long as I can remember, and that I did write a metal music blog for a while, I still feel like a complete jag-off when sharing my thoughts on music. I honestly wonder what anyone gains by reading a music review. Yet we have countless blogs, magazines, and vlogs dedicated to that very thing. Music is so personal. What is good to me could be (probably is) crap to you. The best I can do at this point since I don't book shows anymore, is to recommend music that maybe you have not heard about and let you make up your own mind about it. Lastly, I don't know why I care about this stuff so much anyway.

I bought some bell bottoms. Feast on this fabric pattern! If this pattern was a metal genre it would be stoner metal.

Important MERCH update and shipping

I was catching up on some shipping tonight and current patch, mask and previous fest item orders are going out tomorrow. All SWMF V merch that was PRE ordered before June 22 was produced and sent out recently from our vendor and you should have received it (plus reprints of the hoodies). If you have not received a 2021 hoodie, shirt, long sleeve, or tank and you ordered before June 22, please message me at [email protected]
Orders placed after June 23 will be produced in the next run.
If you want to pre-order for this next run please do so by Saturday, July31. This is especially important if you want a 2XL or larger in any item.
The next batch of orders will be produced and sent to you before the fest from my vendor in Brooklyn. And then there will be a limited selection AT the fest to shop from the SWMF merch table. My goal however is to get as much sent out in advance as possible. I live in a 3rd floor apartment now and I drive a small car, I ain't got room for all this!
After July31 the web store will be turned off until after the fest. This is to ensure that this second batch of pre-orders reaches you prior to the fest.
There are plenty of SWMF V patches, some masks, some extremely limited stock from previous events that you can preorder and I will personally ship to you. There may be some other SWMF merch you have not yet seen available only at the fest. :)
To order merch go visit our BigCartel page and shop. I am stoked on this orange color this year! See you all soon!!

CAMPING PASSES
