With a bill this epic, you start to wonder what can Ozzfest do to top this? Axl over at MetalSucks made a good point:
[T]here are plenty of good bands who will be (presumably) touring this summer that aren’t on the above bill – Killswitch Engange, Lamb of God, Mastodon and Chimaira, to name but a few of the bigger ones – I have to wonder if all these tours aren’t just cannibalizing one another. I mean, once you throw in Summer Slaughter (I’m assuming Sounds of the Underground is dead for good) and the fact that a few bands will inevitably (and much to our chagrin) end up on Vans Warped, you have to wonder how many $40 – $80 package fests the kids will really buy tickets to… especially once fans get wise to the fact that most of these bands will inevitably come back around in the fall on cheaper tours that will allow them to play longer sets in more intimate settings.

i want these tickets for my Manny. thats right my manny.
my friend not only keeps an eye on my two sons while im at school or work but he cooks, cleans up the kitchen, makes them keep up on their room, and even scrubs the bathroom.
i would love to go to the concert with him but i would think he would rather take his best friend. these guys are truely metal heads. I am so grateful to my friend for being the guy he is.
he is better to my children than their own big loser father.
Please, let me win the tickets so i can really show Christian how much i apreciate his being here for me.
