Hello all,

I'm a displaced yank living in the South, and I'll be moving to Atlanta in 2 weeks to start a new job (I'm in TV news).

I always try to go to a lot of shows, and I'm excited to be moving to a town with regular gigs again (grew up in Philly, spent last 2 years in Augusta).

I start work on the 20th, and I'm really looking forward to the Napalm Death/Toxic Holocaust show that week. I last saw Napalm Death in Philadelphia back in 2002, with Strapping Young Lad, Berzerker, Nile, and Dark Tranquillity.

So, if there's anyone I can meet up with from the board at the show, drop me a line here or email me at k.kinkead@hotmail.com.

thanks,
Kevin

Welcome to the Atlanta metal scene.....although sometimes it seems like it's better to live near Ground Zero in Spartanburg for shows.

Wassup man..we've been getting some great shows lately. Alot of good ones do unfortunately skip Atlanta though.

I caught that tour here. It was on Valentines Day. Fortunately my wife accepts the fact that I'm a metalhead. haha

Welcome aboard!

There have been maybe...2 shows to go to Ground Zero and not Atlanta in the past 2-3 years. And I think one of those tours was canceled. The other one is that Mayhem/Marduk show. So Atlanta is definitely better.

I see that some people from the WREKage crew are on this board.

I used to do metal radio when I was in Journalism School at WVU. We had a show that ran from midnight to 3am on Fridays, and I got the opportunity to interview King Diamond, Randy Blythe, and a bunch of other people.

I eventually got out of that and got into TV, but I loved doing radio in college.

dude that would be so cool...not this headbanger's ball fag shit that's currently on

anyways, yeah I would fall into that category of radio DJs...but only for another month cause I graduate! Yeah I've gotten to interview King Diamond too, Chris Barnes, Rob Halford, Ghaal, Alex Skolnick, Misery Index twice (once in studio), In Flames, Sepultura and a shitton of others. btw I'm jealous you got to see The Berzerker!

what do you look like so we know who to look for at shows? I'm one of the few females so I won't be hard to find.
enough of that, welcome to the boards!

I really do want to catch that Napalm Death show though...it just sucks because it's the week before finals. Most of the good shows this month are happening at bad times for me, since those Obscura and Amon Amarth shows are during finals

i hear ya man..i gotta be selective as well. I wouldn't mind seeing Napalm but i'd rather hold out and see the Amon Amarth show.

Here's a few pics of me with Destroyer 666. I'm the one with the WV hat, ignore the drunk guy drinking coffee.

And here's me onstage with my punk and roll band.

Would love to meet you guys, I'll drop you a private message and post a follow up here before the show.

Those pics are awesome, man, and props for the screen name: that's probably my fave song from that album. D666 is the shit.
