I was gonna leave and go get some merch/drinks/whatever during that time and also see BFMV play Scream, Aim, Fire since I assumed that's what they'd open with. Then I'd go back to the Hot Topic stage in time to get close enough for Cannibal Corpse.

Them playing Scream, Aim, Fire last is lamesauce. I'd rather see all of Cannibal Corpse than risk missing a song to hear on BFMV song. Oh well.

Well...1 song is better than none.

I think that the setup for this festival is stupid. They make an effort so that none of the sets overlap, but nobody is going to go back and forth between the main and side stages. Both of the opening main stage bands could have longer sets.

at today's show main stage bands didn't start til all 2nd stage bands were finished.
and people were going back and forth from the hot topic stage to the jagermeister stage all day.
so i really think it's a great setup.

That's not how it worked last year or how the schedule was set for the previous shows this year. That I can deal with. Better than Ozzfest because there is no dead time for set changes.

i was going to but i wasn't that interested and i was also starving and really exhausted.
