Ted Aguilar of Death Angel @ Getaway Rock Festival 2011

Death Angel isn’t coming to Southern Oregon so I’m thinking I may drive down (3+ hours) to Chico to see them. Crazy? Probably, but I’ve gone much farther to see them before (12+ hours each way in 1987, from Copenhagen, Denmark to Gavle, Sweden in 2011, and almost 5 hours each way in 2012). To not go see them when they are “only” less than 4 hours away seems almost wrong.

I’d really like to be in Northern Sweden in August of 2014 to see Volbeat, Opeth, Dimmu Borgir, Arch Enemy, Watain, and probably another couple dozen great bands. However, it looks like I’ll have to stick with memories of the 2011 festival for the foreseeable future.
