Neither did I, but with these bands!! pure swedish "death" metal and IRON MAIDEN!!!
It'll sure be nice this time

I'll be there!

Last year i missed it because the city i live in is the last Ozzfest date, and right at the last second they CANCELLED that gig because of hurricane season.

I'm really excited about this year's lineup. I'm not a big fan of KSE, but their live performance a few years back really made an impression on me, so i'm actually looking forward to seeing them again.

And iron maiden?? Jeez! That's one of those bands i NEVER thought i'd get to see in person!!

Aw nuts.

I have allready seen Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, In Flames, The Haunted and Arch Enemy. Black Label Society would be the only "interesting new thing", though it would be nice to see Black Sabbath again.

Id like to get tickets if I could especially to see Maiden when they come to S.F. but i dont know, my area is NOT a good metal area, most "metalheads" are just kids who think they are goth becauser they put on black makeup and cut themselfs for attention, last thing i want to do is surround myself with a ton of them...

Only other bands I would be interested in seeing is Arch Enemy and Black Sabbath...

I think they all have summer homes out here, because i see them all the time as well. There's also the added bonus of the Hot Topic pixies who wear the size XXXXXXXXXS babydoll shirts that are pink and prominently display bands that they've only heard of...like Kiss and Judas Priest....

We have a black metal epidemic too, but it's pretty much the same group of kids, and the only two black metal bands they know are Cradle of Filth and Cradle of Filth.

hehehehe, but Cradle of Filth used to be a great band, anyway...

The main reason i'm going to Los Angeles (considering that i live in Mexico City) is Iron Maiden and those fantastic swedish bands, specially In Flames and Arch Enemy .
I hope this Ozzfest kick ass...i deserve some good luck after all these shit i've been through for the last 2 years

buuuaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!


I want to go but alive in Colombia my loved mother country and as I do not have money (neither sufficient age... in phrase, nor anything) I will not go

I don't like this kind of meetings (like Gods of Metal in Bologna) but it sounds interesting...
