On what to expect from the festival, organizers offered: "You can expect to have a raucous weekend of heavy metal with some of the best people that you've ever met! Our mosh pits tend to be pretty fun, too. 13 bands will play at one location per day, and there are no overlaps between bands. So if you want to, you can see every single band and not miss any of them. But if you do decide to leave the venue and come back, that's perfectly fine! There are in's and out's.
"There's also plenty of great food and things to drink nearby, record stores, and one of the best bookstores in the city. If you need a break from the decibels, Capitol Hill has plenty to offer."
