It has been mentioned but it certainly deserves its own thread.

I posted it in "Live Events" a week or so ago, figuring it would make it's way to gen disc eventually.

New London, Connecticut? Why, that's reasonably close to me!

of all the cities, New London, CT? that is one random town. I actually saw a killer show there (Traindodge, Roma 79, Story of the Sea) a few years ago at the Oasis Pub, which is a small bar around the corner on Bank St. Going down to that show a few years ago from Boston, was my first time to New London. For some reason, I had this preconception...it was one of these seaport New England towns that had gone through a sort of cultural rebirth (like Portsmouth, NH and Portland, ME). Nope. You go into that town, it's like walking back in time...say late 70s, or early 80s. The locals are dressed like they are pre-gaming for a Triumph/REO Speedwagon show. Dated scenery aside, the locals were actually very cool...and this town/region of CT seems to take a lot a pride in their local music scene. Also, prior to the show at the Oasis Pub, my brother in law and I had good wings and burgers at another local joint called Hot Rod Cafe (http://www.hotrodscafenewlondon.com), also on Bank St. I'd also add The Oasis pub is a cool small divey bar, with a nice variety of tap beers...and a really impressive live sound quality for the bands, especially for such a small low key place. Traindodge, Roma 79, and Story of the Sea...all mid-west and west coast bands, all played terrific sets. What turned out to be a completely unexpected venture a few years ago, turned out to be one of the funnest nights out I've had living in New England for the past 11 years. If I wasn't going to be on Cape Cod labor day weekend, I'd probably go down for this doom fest. for at least a day.

Bash at the beach! I may be down for this one...it's only a couple hours. I never go to "fests" or even shows with more than five bands anymore, but maybe one more time. I got no real excuse...other than having no one to roll down there with and nowhere to stay. Maybe I'll get a shitty room somewhere. More likely I'll just chicken out.

El N Gee...this brings me back to high school.

Connecticut College is right around the corner so I guess there's that for why a music club can exist in that neck of the woods. And New Londons pretty centrally located allowing for those in the north (Boston area) and those in the southwest (NY area) equal ease in attending; not super close to either but also not too far for either. They used to have some decent shows back in the day if memory serves correct for the smaller type stuff but, yeah, I only made it there once or twice still.

If I was back East still, I'd attend, and there is a slim chance I might be heading back that way this fall but otherwise won't be able to make it. Heck, all that I really want to see is Elder and Black Pyramid but that's enough to entice were I more local.

I'm happy to see this in a out-of-the way place like New London, I love seeing fests in places like Youngstown and Frederick where everything is affordable and you can park your car for free on the street right by the venue. I have tickets to Liberty Fest in Philly in a couple of weeks and I'm already dreading the parking and lodging expenses and hassles.

Looking forward to this, will be my sixth SHoD I reckon.

I scheduled the 31st off, in case I decide to go. I wish the line-up per day were posted.

Thanks... I never think to look at facebook. Well, it looks like there are 3 bands I like (that I know of) that I'll miss on Thurs (Roadsaw, Black Thai, and Ichabod). But, this thing is looking pretty good, regardless. I'm going to try and make this thing.

Now if I would by some miraculous way become insanely rich overnight, I would drop by just to see Elder (and some of you)....
