A brand new Metal
Festival is born…..out of the Nightmare.
Metal vocalist Lance King (owner of Nightmare Records / previous vocalist of
bands BALANCE OF POWER and PYRAMAZE; has now started a new music festival in
conjunction with ROCK SOLID PRESSURE Radio Show hosted by J. Rock and Patty,
with help from Maximum Bands and
Bourbon Street. This festival will be a step
beyond the sum of it’s parts. As the weeks count down to the event, we will be
sure to surprise a few of you and I’m sure bring a smile to others faces.
Nightmare Records is known for finding amazingly talented dark yet uplifting
progressive, power and thrash metal bands with stunning senses of melody.
J.Rock and Patty’s run the gambit with their rock and metal appreciation and are
sure to bring in a few welcome surprises as will Rich Rubin at Maximum Bands.
“Being that Nightmare is based in Minnesota, home of snow
drifts and corn, I decided that, what better way to spend my spring break than
going to Florida, and while I’m there, have a metal party when others are sure
to be heading South! A New festival is born, this is going to be fun, that is
all I can say…” Lance King
Stay tuned in, there will be more announcements posted here and in our official
forum on ULTIMATE METAL FORUMS each week ticking down to the main event!
This is just the beginning of things to come!
WHEN: FRIDAY & SATURDAY MARCH 21ST AND 22ND
