$2500 US is pretty steep for a band that hasn't existed for like 8 years or something. I realize how seminal they are as a band (definitely one of my faves) but $2500 is a lot of clams. Are there even any original members in the band at this point? - Fri, 27 Aug 2004 2:29pm

I (and a shit load of other people I know ) would be there if they came to town. It doesn't matter if they play a few days after cryptopsy, as long as it's not on the same night I don't see the fucking problem. They were the first band to be signed to relapse, passing up the chance to see them would be retarded. - Fri, 27 Aug 2004 6:12pm

Honestly I will donate $200 bucks to see Suffocation and Deeds. I'm not joking . . . email me if desired. I will see these bands!!!

P.S. Moron . . . Suffocation has been around for at least 14 maybe 15 years. And they have 3/4ths of their original line up. - Sat, 28 Aug 2004 6:45pm

They better play here! *shakes fist in threatening manner*
I don't think it makes a difference if they play a few days after Cryptopsy, everyone (everyone who's not retarded) will go. Even though I'm jobless and poor, I'd find a way to get a ticket, I'm not against selling my things. Cuz hey, do I really need 2 kidneys? And if suffocation do agree to play here, I'll definatly be filling up the tub with ice.
But seriously, I don't think getting someone to promote the show is the hard part, I think Dodsanger is right, finding a venue that's willing to have a band that wants to be guarenteed $2500 US should be a challenge, although not impossible especially after the success of the cannibal show. I wouldn't mind if they made the tickets like $20-30 because personally I'd rather pay it and see them play here then have the hassle and expense of, lets say, having to travel over to van to see them play in a bigger venue.
Besides they won't just have ticket sales, if they play here I'm sure that the vast majority of people who would go would be picking up shirts and cds as well. I think we just need to find someone who knows what they're doing to organize this! - Sun, 29 Aug 2004 2:16pm

'Brutal Death Metal' developed by combining certain aspects of the song structures of grindcore with death metal. Brutal Death Metal is associated with bands like Suffocation.

a bit on "Suffocation" the band here...kinda a cool dictionary

fuck man, i'd get my ass over there in a hurry if they came down. i'd buy a ticket or whatever... but 2500 US $ is alot of cash.

Dr.DoomXXX is right though, there is no problem as long as they don't come down on the same night. - Sun, 29 Aug 2004 6:47pm

It would take 160 people 20 bucks each to make 3200.

Eh its a bit pricy, I would like to see them, but with those other bands could be worth it. Depends on what day it would be that they play vic I guess. - Sun, 12 Sep 2004 10:36am

Thats to pay the band, then you have sound, promo, all the hotels and rider they'll ask for, the other band or 2 that you would need to make the full bill and then hopes that whoever put up all that cash might make something back in return.... your break even number will be closer to 300 at 20 bux 3 days after Cryptopsy, thats why no ones going to do it - Sun, 12 Sep 2004 12:50pm
