At a Christian metal music festival that lasts 3 days and there is someone dressed as a carrot, all of the bands are mingling with the festival goers, and it is so hot out with no A/C. It is a blast. Nine Lashes, the protest, and Disciple are here.
I made a thread but decided to change the topic. Sadly, the main site hasn't updated with that change yet.
