Band Splits For M3 2014
Tuesday, April 22, 2014 at 12:01AM I can't believe it, but M3 Rock Festival is this weekend. I won't be heading to Columbia, Maryland this year because I will finally be moving into my new house! If you're attending the fest, you probably want the band set times. Here they are:

Cannot wait to see all my metal friends.
Had he done that, the Pavilion would have been packed just as it was the previous year when RATT had a reunion of sorts as the final headliner.
TeslUGH! does not a true headliner make, though both the promoter of M3 AND that of The Monsters of Rock Cruise, insist on making them so, revealing they know nothing about Rock & Roll.
Just imagine the bands headlining last year at M3 had the promoter recalculated... Poison, WASP, KIX, Twisted Sister!
Now, you've got TeslUGH!, KIX, Sebastian Bach, Queensryche, Night Ranger.
With the exception of KIX, a no brainer, particularly for Maryland and surrounds, it's painfully obvious this dude STILL hasn't learned his lesson. In fact, he's going backwards.
At least the promoter of MORC, if the trajectory of the line-up stays on track for next year, won't be booking TeslUGH!, THE MOST boring, mundane AND mediocre band touring today, again.
AND if he scores RATT for a make good, his line-up obliterates that of M3 two years running.
p.s. As some have indicated in their Comments here, if you insist on going to M3, the action is on the fringes -- Catch Lita Ford before KIX on Friday, Heaven's Edge, Corabi, Great White (supposedly Jack is back in top form!), Stryper (off their best album since the glory days), Red Dragon Cartel, L.A. Guns, Slaughter and Sebastian Bach. In fact, for my money, the last show I would stay for would be Slaughter. They kicked azz on MORC! And why the h*ll are some of the best acts happening WAY so early?... I mean, come on: Heaven's Edge AND Corabi going on BEFORE Femme Fatale? Is that cuz it takes girls longer to put on their make up? (Sorry, Al!)
Maybe next year, folks!
RIP, RATT!!!
Where I come from, that wipes out all the goody two shoes sh*t.
But that doesn't even matter. I like Megadeth's music and Mustaine's a total a*swipe. Same with Nugent.
TeslUGH!'s biggest crime isn't the fact their total do*chebags.
No, it's the fact that, save for about 5 songs, their music is really quite mediocre. But, hey, knock yourselves out. If AOR Middle-of-the-Road Stupid Wimp Rock is your thing, knock yourselves out.
By the way, I have it on good authority, Tesla are out of the MORC line-up next year. Even the boring-azz promoter is capable of recognizing passengers don't need to be bored again, even if they're so willing to settle for less and can't even recognize they're in a total state of boredom with TeslUGH! as the soundtrack.
There's bigger fish to fry now. Sayonara, 80's Hick Rock!
