Sat (3/16) Picks
AFTERNOON:
Converse/Thrasher Death Match
Converse/Thrasher Death Match
Noon – 6 PM @ Scoot Inn (map)
Clutch is the big draw here, but exclusive appearances by Black Breath and Kadavar should not be overlooked. If you haven't seen Baptists or Orange Goblin yet this is also a perfect time to catch up. I'm assuming that it's absolutely impossible that you've missed Royal Thunder and Power Trip by now, but they're here regardless. Also popping their head in: Austin's own Ancient VVisdom. Goddamn, if you have anything left in the tank after this you've got some serious hair on your chest.
EVENING:
Relapse Presents…
8 PM – 2 AM @ Red 7 (map)
This recommendation kind of depends entirely on which bands you have and haven't seen (or gotten too much of) by this point in the festival. You could just as easily choose the Brooklyn Vegan show below, but the lure of a John Baizley (Baroness) solo set is personally not enough to make me choose the BV show over this slightly more stacked gig. Plus you can pop on over to the Chaos Stage and check out some non-metal like Parquet Courts or Merchandise if you want to wind down the fest in a bit more low key fashion.
