it sure was, or is. fuck, for 50-65 bucks, and you see upwards of 200 metal bands in 2 days?? hell yeah. and let me say that Milwaukee is one hell of a nice place. some of the friendliest people i've ever met. even friendly to a Toxic Avenger looking mutherfucker like me. learned a lot about beer there too, on the Miller brewery tour. Mars Cheese Castle rules!
