The list of bands was a whole lot better until just recently. I believe the festival is having to make significant cut backs on the amount they are paying bands and many of the big names are dropping out. tough way to see it go out after all these years.

Only worthwhile artist I saw was Norma Jean. They put on a pretty fantastic show, still play tons of stuff off of Bless the Martyr.

It's not really a hardcore/metal festival, technically just a music festival

It used to be pretty much an exclusively hardcore/metal festival back in the 90s
