This idea of posting flyers for shows throughout the country was so great in theory. In practice, it’s a pain in the ass to scour the internet for Death Metal concerts in the Bible Belt. Then again, “treat others how you want to be treated.” If I was a headbanger stranded in the middle of a conservative hell-hole, I would want someone to tell me when Goatwhore comes to town, too. Here’s part 2, covering the Deep South and beyond.
Deep South
I’m sure some crazy Deliverance-esque shenanigans go down at a Deep South venue called The Plughouse. Yikes.
The Plughouse is on this flyer too. Wait, look at that background. Is that the same river from Deliverance?! If you hear banjos, fucking run.
Who wouldn’t love a line-up this sexy? The tour dates are as follows:
5/10 – Tampa, FL – The Orpheum
5/11 – Miami, FL – Churchill’s
5/12 – Jacksonville, FL – Roc Bar
5/13 – Gainesville, FL – The Atlantic
5/14 – Pensacola, FL – Vinyl Music Hall*
5/15 – New Orleans, LA – Hangar 13*
Northeast:
My geography is a little rusty, so I’m not sure if Connecticut is considered part of the Northeast or the East Coast. I’m not even sure if I spelled Connecticut correctly.
We all love Tech-Death. This sweet line up takes the stage at the Palladium Upstairs in Worcester, MA. June 3rd at 6 pm. Tickets are $15. Also, check out that fuckin’ background on the flyer. I could stare at that bleak landscape for hours on end.
East Coast:
I have nothing funny or clever to say about this flyer. Sorry.
This is quite obviously a Stoner Metal show. The venue, called The Pinch, is located at 3548 14th St NW, Washington, DC 20010.
Wait, it’s a Stoner Metal show in Washington DC?! Personally, I’d be really paranoid about the Secret Service or the Illuminati or some other creepy government agency busting me for being toasted at a concert. But don’t let that ruin your good time or anything.
Lock up yo daughters, lock up yo wives. I’m coming to Maryland.
Alaska:
I couldn’t find any recent flyers for Alaska, but there is this cool contest. Seriously, how could I not find any flyers for a cold, harsh region that’s pitch black 80% of the time?! Alaska is like the Norway of the Western hemisphere.
Hawaii:
Oh no, Hawaii. Not you too. There wasn’t much to find except this Guns n’ Roses tribute happening tonight. Dying Fetus did just play at Hawaiian Brian’s Showroom in Oahu, but that was on May 2nd. I wish I told you in time. If I could change the past, I would.
Whoo boy, what a hell ride. I hope I don’t get any more crazy ideas. What will I think of next, posting flyers for INTERNATIONAL shows?!
Hmm…
