After months of paperwork, hoop-jumping, and making the
appropriate sacrifices, today Slave Pit is pleased to announce that the GWAR-B-Q is
100% completely legal and confirmed, and set for Aug, 18th at
Hadad's Lake, the location we had planned on using last year. As you may
recall, last year's GWAR-B-Q was switched from Hadad's to
the National Theater because of problems getting the correct permits. Even
though the event was still completely awesome most people seemed to agree
that generally speaking, GWAR-B-Q's should be held outdoors.
"All the proper arrangements have been made in
triplicate and the proper demonic sponsorships attained," said GWAR spokes-thing
Oderus Urungus. "It's going to be a stinking hot, beer and beef-smeared
metallic murderfest of unprecedented debauchery...the most splat-tac-cularGWAR-B-Q!
This marks the third consecutive year for the growing
festival, and like last year GWAR will headline the event.
As Best Friends Day, the hugely popular Richmond music fest, is taking this
summer off, the GWAR-B-Q is set to be the hugest heavy music
event of the Richmond summer scene. Bands will be spread across two stages
and feature such acts as The Casualties, GHOUL, Valient Thorr, Occultist,
Lionize, Highness, Antietam 1862, MUTWAWA, and Black Naked Wings. There will
also be Spew-O-Lympics, numerous food vendors, endless streams of golden
nectar, pools to cool your fevered sun-burn, and much much more, including
the return of the Sexecutioner to the GWAR stage for the
first time in twelve years. Sexy has completed a lengthy sabbatical beneath
the catacombs of Paris with his good friend, Prince Ray Pierre, better known
as "Frenchy", the demon of France. His return to the rock stage
provides the promise of attaining unprecedented levels of
naughtiness.
Added Oderus, "I can't tell you how ecstatic I am to
once again be engaging in acts of necro-bestial delight with my old buddy,
The Sexecutioner. Well actually, I can. I am ecstatic I am to once again
be engaging in acts of necro-bestial delight with my old buddy, The
Sexecutioner."
Some of the proceeds from the event will go to benefit
Richmond's Ring Dog Rescuehttp://www.ringdogrescue.org
More info on the GWAR-B-Q will be
released in the coming weeks.
In other GWAR news, not ones to rest on
their laurels, your mutant overlords will be playing a few special shows this
summer in addition to the GWAR-B-Q. This includes a performance
at The Zombie Prom in New York City, two headlining shows and an appearance
at the D-Tox Rockfest in Montebello, Quebec.
