Your dream metal concert 2008-12-02 11:33:24 Reply

So basically our band and 5 other bands are arranging a metal concert this January/February. But to get it together we basically need to bunch up a ton of ideas into the very best ones.

We can come up with the craziest ideas, the guy at the place helping us arrange the concert wants to see the blackest, heaviest and most awesome concert ever played there. As long as the ideas can be reasonable, (No upside down crosses with people crucified on them), then we can come to an agreement.
The main concept is to try to get as many people as possible to watch and to be able to keep them so they don't just show up for a friends band and suddenly leave as the next band plays.

Since Newgrounds is a place full of plenty of metalheads, we're wondering what you as an audience would want to see at the most brutal and awesome concert. Alas being your dream metal concert.

This is basically what we have to work with, it's not the exact place that we're going to have the concert, but it is very similar. 150 people max and such, and the scene is exactly the same size.

If any of you could come up with any great ideas we would be very grateful.

Mazzy Star as the opening act, Placebo as the main act and Tears For Fears as the ending.

...What?

That's a 5/5 comment!

Best thing there is, is perfectly tuned sound. Make the sound overwhelming, but not *to* loud, so your ears won't bleed. Play with passion, play with style, communicate with the crowd, ask them what they want you to play and satisfy their needs. Some humor inbetween to calm down, and then rock on!

I hope you'll give a hell of a concert. ;)

I would seriously just rig the whole stage with fireworks, and start screaming into the microphone while the drummer gives the drums the beating of their lifetime, and when people start booing, just blow the fireworks, and have like crazy lights and fog and all that stuff. Make your stage a seizure stage, and throw the weed, if you want. They'll puke with happiness.

Don't care about the order, just do it.

So even though we're 6 bands playing and are looking for ideas to bring people there, not bands to call in, we're supposed to call in Whitechapel, Slayer and Necrophagist?

no no no, fuck that.

get into a giant spider robot that drills in up from underground, kill criminals with lazers, and then release all the criminals in the crowd.

Do the obvious thing, tell the crowd to stick around for the other bands. The venue looks more than good enough for a decent gig, I've seen real bands in places much smaller so as long as the crowd give you a good reception it should be grand. Don't overdo it and try and be out your leauge, I do think a smoke machine is too much if you're just a normal local band, let your music do the talking :p

I found inspiration, but I fear that a majority of our audience might be killed in the process.
