I would love to go to this and almost any other year, I probably would have. It's just not in the cards this year.

Diabolik · June 17th, 2012, 11:18 AM

I actually wanted to and was planning on it but Scorpions is the same night here in Chicago and all the bands I want to see are playing on the friday night. Saturday is a collection of bands I have zero interest in so I am passing this year.

Justin Gaines · June 17th, 2012, 06:13 PM

I'm coming back from vacation that weekend, so I can't do it. Great lineup though.

SteelFireRecs · June 18th, 2012, 05:18 PM

I was planning on going last year when i was told what the original headliners would be but then they dropped off of it an dsome other personal things came up where i cant attend. The original headliners i was told was Jag Panzer and Mystic Prophecy

well Jag Panzer broke up and Mystic Prophecy decided to move to ProgPower.

SteelFireRecs · June 19th, 2012, 12:09 AM

Yes im familiar with those circumstances. i really wanted to see the Jag. And i just saw Helstar last year at Ragnarokkr and im sure Manilla Road will come to Chicago relatively soon, they're due to be here.

TychoCelchu · June 20th, 2012, 03:41 PM

Hah, I'm in the same boat. I actually bought a ticket but now it's looking like I won't make it out there. Oh well...at least I supported the fest with my ticket purchase, I guess.

FengisRipRider · June 25th, 2012, 12:49 PM

Well I will be there drinking and listening to heavy metal, it will be a great time!

Jasonic · August 2nd, 2012, 11:03 AM

I think I read the first band confirmed for next year is Chicago's SMASH POTATER!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am telling you folks...don't pass on PIZZA FACE!!!!!!!!
There is a trend starting up. Catch the wave!!!

seriously Smash Potater!!!! Only reason they get shows is because they are freinds with Diamond Plate

Jasonic · August 2nd, 2012, 03:21 PM

Sounds like MACABRE mixed with VIO-LENCE mixed with early OVERKILL!!!
BOOK EM FOR RAGNAROKKR!!!
Bet we can get them for a pizza and that stack of sticky magazines under Simon's bed...

You Tube

Diabolik · August 2nd, 2012, 03:31 PM

ahahahahaha....I have unfortunatly have seen them before at DRI / Diamond Plate at Bobby McGee's last December. Terrible band. Dont know why they got booked for the pre-show at WOM fest....this would be a reason not to go to it.

good crack on Simon though too.

Jasonic · August 2nd, 2012, 04:07 PM

LOL - They are nice kids though.....
We played with their other band CLOCK TOWER at that Sanctuary show.
It was funny. They were deciding backstage whether to go out and do a Smash Potater set or a Clock Tower set.

Diabolik · August 2nd, 2012, 04:32 PM

who cares if they are nice kids or not....they play shit music with zero skills. Dont know why a fest would book them because no one would travel 3 states away for them. You would be better off booking a local that would draw.

nomisofsiman · August 2nd, 2012, 05:11 PM

Don't even get how that quote relates to me. Whatevs.

You are usually better at detecting sarcasm.

I didnt get the joke to begin with.

Jasonic · August 3rd, 2012, 12:03 PM

Wow, they just confirmed ATTACKER for 2013.
I have to admit, I seriously thought they were a Ragnarokkr contender for 2013.

Looks like we may not be able to have the OVERLORDE (NJ) VS OVERLORDE S.R. battle to the death after all!!!

Man, between that fest and MDF, a lot of contenders for Ragnarokkr are being picked up by competition.

actually not really. Knowing who mike is considering....far from it.

Jasonic · August 3rd, 2012, 02:27 PM

Well, I agree with Simon here.
It's just a lot of bands who COULD be good fits.
There are plenty of bands so hopefully all fests will prosper!

Which was my point and Bob knows it. He just had to put his two cents in.

AngraRULES · August 7th, 2012, 09:07 AM

WoM tried to get a couple of my bands to perform at the festival last year, but it didn't work out.
