Some dark irony here, having bands with these band names at a benefit for victims of a bombing.... You think they could have picked bands with nicer names. You know names that won't make the surviving victims relive what happened. Just saying.

It's also put together by a hardcore organizer and a lot of those bands don't have friendly names.

I will be attending this. There is not a chance I will not be going. This lineup is absolutely amazing, and it helps the marathon bombing victims. I can't pass this up.

You crawl out of your hole to say that?

Nah but seriously your choice of bands would be horrible.

Besides, I doubt 99% of the survivors will even hear about this.

So no one can see how having bands called For The Worse, Dropdead, Wrecking Crew, or Doomriders, would offend some of the victims if they were to attend this or read about this? You don't think something as little as band names like this would trigger memories, breakdowns etc of people who went through a traumatic experience?
