Kansas City Power Metal Fest

While I dont have my mits in this project, my friends Jodi and Scott do. So anyone from the Midwest take notice.

Saturday, August 9th, 2008
The Riot Room
4048 Broadway
KCMO

The first band confirmed for KCPMF is Kansas City's own Ancient Creation. Check out their unique version of dark power metal on Myspace:

Very cool. The MySpace page needs some tweaking though ... hopefully they are serious - I don't see a date or a venue listed ...

Did the vocalist for Ancient Creation used to be in Darkside? He looks and sounds familiar.

I looked around some more and it's the same guy. I believe I have their "Masquerade" CD somewhere...

Best wishes to your friends, Biffle. Hope their first fest goes great! I can't wait till I can get home and actually listen to their first confirmed band (instead of just looking at their myspace page here at work).

Yup Steve Bentley from Darkside, he's been on the scene here in KC since mid eighties singing in bands and rocking out. Saw Ancient Creation up at the Midwest Metal Anthem at JJ Kellys in Chicago too. They do put on a good live show, should be interesting to see what else goes on this lineup.
