Maritime Metal & Hard Rock Festival “Crazy 8”

2 weeks ago

Woo-Hoo..... We’ve got some cool news to share. Firstly, we will be announcing date and venue details for 2020 in about a month. Something else we are EXTREMELY EXCITED about is the launch of the first, annual “BEAST COAST MUSIC AWARDS”. This will be a fun time indeed, with some roasting involved, as well as categories such as “Best New Heavy Band”, “Best Heavy Album of 2019”, “Best Metal Band”, “Best Punk Band”, “Best Hard Rock Band”, “Best Live Heavy Band”, “Best Metal/Hard Rock Tribute”, “Best Merchandise”, “Best Self-Promoting Band” and many more. We will also have some spoof categories, such as “Band Most Likely to Embellish Their Bio”, “Band Most Likely to Still Be Headlining Gus’s Pub in 10 Years”, “Band with Best Hair”, “Cheesiest Tribute Band” and more. We are currently working with sponsors to compile prizes for these awards. It is going to be fun and funny for those who can handle it. Others will absolutely have their egos crushed..... including the festival’s main sponsor, who will enjoy every second of it. The information, nominees and polls will be announced this fall. ...

Huge thanks to all the bands, staff, volunteers and of course, YOU, the ticket buying supporters that are the only thing keeping East Coast music afloat in the rough seas of today’s industry. Next year the festival will be on a different weekend than Smokin’ Rock & Blues Fest 10th Year Bash. Despite selling-out of our 200 “floater Passes”, it’s just too tough to focus and give each event the attention they need on the same weekend. It’s too much workload for the team and some off us actually want to kick back and enjoy some of these bands that we spend so much time, money and energy supporting! Year 8 will be INSANE! ...
