He would probably have mentioned it when we spoke, so no, nothing at this stage.

It's very rare ChCh gets something like that, so I think they wanna keep it that way, to make the even more exclusive. What's the point in having a main attraction when people could wait and see them elsewhere in the country? You'd lose ticket sales.

No idea until they make the announcement.

I did the artwork for last years' festival... not 100% if I'm doing it this year but the promotor hinted that probably would be the case.

But I'm not allowed to divulge info until it's 100% official.

Goddamn I've listened to NOTHING but Testament ALL WEEK. Every album.

It's rare for me to prefer a classic bands NEWER material.. but holy goddamn balls, "Low" and "The Gathering" are just amazing.

Holy shit Nicky.. if you could get me a chance at meeting Alex Skolnick and Chuck Billy it would be a dream come true.. even Paul Bostaph!! Maybe I should flick you our Thrash Hammer EP see if Dissolution would be worthy of opening! Very Happy

Heh, meeting then would be the tits.

Would be cool to have Chuck Billy around for a beer and a bong Cool

Will see how it all goes.

If only dude, I have zero influence on the choice of bands playing there. I gotta get a copy of that demo anyway though!

Just remember Southern Amp isn't a metalfest, it encompasses all genres.

Well the New Zealand date is no longer on their website.

It wasn't 100% confirmed anyway, as I've always known.
