Mayhem Fest was HOT (tends to be that way in July), but was also awesome with a bit more practice could possibly replace Ozzfest or at least fill in the void. Went with Neferoth, Nazarath, Erishkigal, Rayvenn, and some friends. Nef was off Moshing whenever he could or running around doing the FREE HUGS with Rayvenn, and Colton. Nazarath has a new tatoo, courtesy of Erishkigal (very well done)maybe he will post some pics for everyone to see. One critique, I liked how you had access to the lawn at the Gorge as soon as the gates opened. At Whiteriver the gates opened at 2 but the lawn didn't open till 5pm there were other stages going but limited places to sit and get out of the sun so we roasted. By the end of the night I swear Nef was going to need traction but he was fine, Disturbed and Slipknot were awesome and would go see them again.
