just a friendly reminder for those in the metro Atlanta area to come on out this Saturday and check out some 'different' bands. Only one of these bands I have worked with in the past, and I think quite a few of you were surprised by and impressed with Eternal Hour on May 2nd.



and yes, the same guy who worked on the ProgPower USA X shirt design did this poster for us.

Thanks Wayne! You RULE!!!

never a dull moment at a Pathfinder show.

half way through the first song by the first band we had an incident where a man collapsed between the sound booth and the bar. We thought 'seizure' at first, but come to find out he had stumbled coming through the venue entrance and bumped his head - apparently hard enough to give himself a concussion. EMT arrived in a timely fashion and he was awake by the time they carted him off. ... whew. And no, he wasn't falling down drunk. He simply and legitimately stumbled somehow.

So on with the show... the opening band - as I was saying - played in front of an estimated 120 folks, who they had eating from the palms of their hands. And they even tore into Flight of Icarus again. Sorry you missed that one Clay.

I'll fill in the rest tomorrow sometime. But needless to say it was a successful night for Pathfinder Promotions even if hardly any of the 'regulars' were able to make it out.

Hope to see you all at the next show on July 25th when Tempest Reign brings their heavy metal from Jacksonville, FL. Please be sure to come out and make them feel welcomed! Our native sons A Lower Deep will be supporting them, along with VOR and Worlds End. This stands to be a great show from start to finish!

Glad y'all had a great time and that the turnout was so large! I hope I can make the July show. I hated to miss that Maiden cover, but thanks for telling me about it!

Kludder. First show at a venue with lasers? Great camera-candy.

probably each day individually would be the easiest thing to do. And I'm going to try to keep the ticket prices low - like similar to a local show. I want as many fans in there as possible. I want these two shows to make an impact on the local metal scene.

I will try to make at least one night of this festival. I already have a concert booked for the 28th.

WOW, that's a FANTASTIC lineup!!!

I must say I'm very impressed: we get NINE top-notch bands, plus Halcyon Way will be there

Well done Hoyt!!!


I'll give it a couple of days before I start the first "guess next year's Pathfinder Metalfest lineup" thread

got some catchin up to do there guys...Eternal Hour is making their move on Atlanta and I only see them gaining momentum not to mention we got quality melodic bands like VOR placing their grand stamp on the local scene.

Hopefully I can get off work in time to get to the venue and catch the HW set at the fest - its been far too long. We got 'black-out' dates starting at the end of September. (this means I dare not ask off between the end of september to the end of january or they'll be looking for a replacement for me real fast that doesn't mind working any day or time.)

Totally understood. I can't do anything during the week in November and December due to "black-outs" as well. Hope you can make as many shows as possible!

Take a look back at this post and then know that I now have tickets in hand for $8 advance. Three of Atlanta's finest metal bands hosting Tempest Reign from Jacksonville, FL. You can't beat that with a stick!

I was just out at the Local today and they have updated the sound system, and also expanded the stage (front & center) just a bit to accommodate the new sub woofers. They are also adding much-needed baffling to the stage area. The shows to come in there are certainly going to be an improvement in sound. So come on out on July 25th and see for yourself.



(pssst - all the cool kids are doing it )
