I always hate it when "hardcore" bands tour with legitimate metal bands. Basically what happens is that the queer hardcore dancers get into fights with the metalheads and I always feel like I have to watch my back, because hardcore dancers like to hit you in the back of the head.

The upcoming Blackest of the Black tour doesn't make much sense to me- Danzig, Lacuna Coil, The Haunted, Belphegor.

No kidding,those bands are anything but evil.A proper evil line up would be Deicide,Morbid Angel,Incantation and Immolation.

Well, maybe Belphegor could count as evil. I'd like to see that tour myself.

I also think if you added some Dimmu to the resume it'd be a helluvu tour.

I KNOW, i was going to do see it, but when i found out THEY were headlining, well i just had to say, that is the gayest thing i layed eyes on, ITS SO STUPID, they are headlining OVER the Gods of early Brutal Death Metal, the GODS of Medolic Swedish death Metal, and one of the fastest and most brutal bands out of poland, seriously its ridiculous, who ever made that like up should die, die and horrible death.

oh, you said that Fear Factory is opening for them, so I thought you were confused. Anyways, you're right. They don't deserve to headline over these great bands. I might even leave before FF plays...

For your safty i think you should leave, becuase im sure if you dont, you will have to kill yourself cause of the gay music, or the musi itself will kill you with its annoying noises and beats, its horrid, I know i wouldent stay for FF. They suck to much.

I second that me and my buds are defiantly leaving before FF play their endless droning.

Well im not even gonna go to that show im going to see Dying Fetus Cannibal Corpse and Necrophagist.

Yea that show is going to be awesome hope they play alot of their old shit.

Yea i hope Cannibal Corpse play alot of stuff off their first 4 albums, and some new songs are pretty good, but mainly their new shit, Dying Fetus can play anything dosent matter their fucking awsome my favorite band for sure, and Necrophagist only had two albums out and both were amazing so i dont care what they play, but its going to be a must see concert if comming to you.

I don't care if it has been said, but I find it wrong that Dsiturbed and Nevermore toured (are they still touring together?) with each other around the UK

Does anyone remember when Shadows Fall was Touring with Slipknot?

Well Finntroll was opening for KoRn in Helsinki this year, which I thought was quite amusing... Luckily they weren't touring with each other...

Hell yea Dying Fetus are brutal hope they play some of their unreleashed stuff that would be badass and hav'nt really heard anything by Necrophagist but I'm looking forward to it hope the venue isn't gay and forbids camera's and shit.

Last year I saw Into Eternity open up for Opeth and Nevermore. It was...odd. While Opeth and Into Eternity are Progressive Death Metal, and Nevermore is a Power influenced Thrash Metal band, it was Into Eternity that didn't seem to fit. I honestly have never considered Into Eternity Progressive Metal or Death Metal. But what ever. They made me laugh a lot.

Trivium supporting Children Of Bodom was kind of strange and you know that the crowd didn't react to Trivium very well on most of those
Otherwise the strangest thing I've seen myself was a local Brutal Hardcore/Trash Metal band openning up for HIM here in Sofia in 2002... it was hillarious... I go inside to concert almost for free and there were soooo many chicks I didn't really give a rat fuck who's playing... I also saw a very old Bulgarian Hard Rock band that had just shot a video of the most comersial rock song ever that was going around on TV, opening for Soulfly... Of course they got boood off the stage by all the Soulfly and Sepultura fans attending the concert... I've really seen a lot of wierd support placements here in Bulgaria... There was times when promoters didn't really think about it very much

Otherwise I see no problem with totally different from each other bands palying the same festival... That's the point of Festivals, isn't it...

I know, I know its been said and i'll repeat it.
Reading on the Nevermore website that they are doing a tour with Disturbed was just stupid... but then reading further that this great band was SUPPORTING Disturbed was almost hilarious yet sad at the same time.
Can anyone tell me what the connection is (if any) that got these two bands signed on the same tour? Because surely Nevermore didnt have much of a choice whether they got put SUPPORTING this (imo) second rate band compared to Nevermore.. now im not picking on them, not my taste and im comparing them to Nevermore.

Apocalyptica opening a Korn-headlining concert, before Mudvayne and Marilyn Manson. I have nothing against Korn, actually is one of my favorite bands, but it was a weird combination.

Also, in other Korn-headlining concert, Ministry playing in a line-up of only nu metal bands (Deftones, Ill Niño, Sparta and Puya).

Err.. Burzum headlining with support Mayhem (with Euronymous)? Damn, what a bad joke. :

Eh well, I agree with most posts here.

Yeah I already said it but the outrage must be expressed again. I was so fucking pissed off when I went to try and get tickets last week but the show for both days were sold out. GRRR...damn people going for Disturbed when I was just going for Nevermore! If only Disturbed hadn't cancelled their shows earlier in the year...Nevermore would have been headlining without them on the bill. I missed one of my favourite bands because of their touring partner. Ridiculous.

Of course the really irritating thing is that in various countries in Europe, Nevermore were headlining and Disturbed weren't on the bill. :'(

Yep, the whole tour was basicly kind of strange as far as band selection goes. May be some booking agents were having an exeriment with this one Still, may be it was a very wise choice for Children Of Bodom, cause not all of the Trivium or Amon Amarth fans had heard Children Of Bodom and one of the cool qualities of Children Of Bodom is that they have the potantial appeal to both to the Metalcore Trivium vrowd and the true death crowd of Amon Amarth. This means that there is high chance, that even tough they were headliners, they probably have accumulated some new fans thanks to this tour, so may be it isn't such a strange descision for them to do such a tour.

Lmao of course we were! thos stupid emos all went down! but ya seriously there was an abundance of emos there! my friend even brwled with one of em:P he took him down hardcore it was awsome

Finntroll opened for KoRn? that is weak dude! i'm surprised that KoRn actually know who they are!

I remember reading a Dimmu Borgir interview where they said they were offered to open for Korn in Norway.

Quite a strange mix, don't you think ?

But Dimmu rejected the offer because they didn't have the time, being recording the Stormblast re-issue. But they also said that they would be happy to do it, just to prove to conservative tr00 black metal fans that, even if they don't like Korn music, they can be open minded. (The interview was published in a French RockHard magazine in 2005)

Maybe that's the whole point of these stranges tours... Even if I nearly choked when I heard about Nevermore opening for Disturbed ...

Soulfly opening for Black Sabbath in Stockholm...not sure who made that agreement, sounds really messed.

Eh that's not as bad as it sounds, Shadows Fall is somewhat metalcore themselves. Slipknot is still nowhere near them though.

Dude, Slipknot isn't metal-core, their Nu Metal, please don't confuse the two. And I'm aware of Shadows Falls Metal-core influences, afterall, I am a metal-core fan.

Yes I know they're Nu Metal, but I'm saying I can see much more a Nu Metal and a Metalcore band touring together than a NWOBHM band like Maiden touring with Bullet for my Valentine.

A few years ago when Tool last toured Australia the Cosmic Psycho's opened for them. It was painful to watch & listen to.

well there is an upcoming concert here with Between the Buried and Me opening up for norma jean >_< which i find a little messed up

Misery inc. is supporting Arch Enemy in Hellsinki next week, and those two don't mix... Misery inc as Nu/Gothic-metal does not fit with Arch Enemy...

After being to a local death/black metal festival and seeing a typical hip hop dude, with typical baggy hip hop clothing (with the words HIP HOP on them), headbanging (or trying to) and hip-hop dancing in the middle of a moshpit, I don't find anything else strange anymore...

Though there was a local doom festival that featured a so-called "gothic/doom" band that played Nightwish, CoF and Tristania covers... talk about out of place...
