Disbelief

I'm not buying how "awesome" it is that Slipknot is playing at the US Cellular Center in Cedar Rapids, IA. Not only are they playing on Mother's Day, they are touring with Hatebreed. I saw Hatebreed as an opening act for Slayer in Davenport and they were absolutely awful. Now they are direct support for Slipknot, a band I kind of like, but not all that much. Now, they announce they are going to go on the road this summer with Lamb of God, which is a band I really REALLY like, but when they do, they don't come close to where I live. I'd have to drive to Chicago or St. Louis in August in order to see them.
