Do not be Naive.

This is a complete scam.

The guy behind it is infamous in our area for his dodgy gigs like this.

Also what half assed idiots use an MSN e-mail address over paypal to take ticket money?

DO NOT BUY

I don't wish to sling mud or anything, but apparently someone linked with BRJ Events were behind the Opeth and Horrorfest debacle.

Opeth - http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=68234

Horrorfest - http://forums.downloadfestival.co.uk/tm.aspx?m=2906639&mpage=1&key=�


But this has now been posted on the Bloodstock forums -

To Whom this may concern,

There has been a lot said on this topic already and we thought it would be best if we shared our views on it also. We did plan to have a 3 day festival called Metal Storm to take place in London over the weekend of the 27th-29th November, however due to major sponsors pulling out we was unable to fund the event with the four of us behind that,

The Confirmed line up was as follows:

FRIDAY 27TH NOVEMBER
(FRONT MAGAZINE STAGE)

BAND TBC

SATURDAY 28TH NOVEMBER

SUSPERIA
CREMATORY
DRACONIAN
THRESHOLD
ELVENKING
DRAGONLAND
SUBURBIA IN RUINS

SUNDAY 29TH NOVEMEBER

SODOM
BATTLELORE
ESOTERIC
MITHRAS
INTRORECTALGESTATION
THE PROPHECY
DETRIMENTUM

We can officially say that we contacted every band on that list who agreed to perform, Admittedly most of the bands were supplied by the agents from Rock the Nation or Crush Concerts. We were also at one point to have Candlemass, who were a exclusivity to bloodstock however due to other commitments there were unable to perform the weekend, so we will be honouring their 2010 date but that’s not the topic at matter here.

Many think this Sodom gig is a scam which is just preposterous, we signed Sodom to a contract which we will respect, the venue that the gig will be taking place at is (ULU), the University London Union, which is ran and organized by mean fiddler, I am sure if you contact them about it they will confirm the date is booked in with Sodom(expect it to be listed on their site on monday 9am).

Lastly, all I can do is asking you to stop slandering our promotions, we haven’t done anything to you, and we are just trying to put on a good show. I mean this is the first time Sodom will be in the UK performing since they toured with Sepultra in 1989 on the Agent Orange tour.

Thankyou for your time.

I will believe it when I see a review of the gig.

Could be BRJ is a genuine company but if the man known in our area is involved he is a blot on their reseme (sp?)

And why are tickets only available through an MSN paypal and not the uni box office?

Just wait until tickets are available through official outlets - that way if it does all go tits up, at least all you'll lose out on is the booking fees.

Chunk is a real fwend!!

and like me, his concern is that BRJ events is not what it seems.

No one would like this to be true more than me.

This is such a long story, but if you care to, most of it is chronicled here

http://www.hullrockers.co.uk/phpBB2/vie ... sc&start=0

like I say, long story. :(

I am certain that if BRJ events are as honourable as they say they are, they will understand bands wanting to protect themselves with a cast iron gig contract to ensure that the gig is above board.

has anyone got an email contact for anyone from BRJ ?

I think you may be getting your 80s nostalgia movies mixed up there good buddy!

Sloth never said "Chunk Fwiend" i think the closest he came was SLOTH! LOVE! CHUNK!

however in Labyrinth Ludo often states "Sarah Fwiend!!" (I have also been likened to Ludo by my Fiancee on many occasions :P )

God I am such a nerd lol
