Where's Our Next Announcement Bitch Thread 2014

by **DragonLordJones** » Wed Apr 24, 2013 10:00 am

Is it too early to start screaming for the next announcement

I need another band or two

by **nekrobarr** » Wed Apr 24, 2013 10:07 am

Nope. Gotta wait the prescribed period of 44 days after the latest announcement before one starts bitching.

Also, I'm making that up.

Seems like things were on a pretty good pace, but I guess it's gotta slow down at some point...

I'm sure the bitching will commence once we hit our annual month long stretch of silence.

Yep. If there's no announcement by May 15...unleash hell.

Ah. 3 weeks! I think that's the rough conversion for one standard UMC "soon".

Metric or Standard?

If I had to guess it's probably Queen's Imperial.

We need one proper death metal announcement! Now!

I have a selfish reason for that (other than that I want some death metal): Markku needs at least one solid announcement to finally decide to go. Now he has waaaaay too much time to look for good gigs and festivals in the autumn. I'll continue this rant in the festivals and tours thread in the Engine Room.

We wait with baited breath.

Andy has been stringing us along, with regular announcements and non-announcements, just so it will hit us THAT MUCH HARDER when activity comes to a grinding halt and we hear nothing at all come June/July/August.

Because he is a bastard, and that is just how he rolls

We've already started to see a 'return to normal' - 5 days since the last nonannouncement, and 9 days since the last band announcement. And the last non-announcement teased with the trolling line "how long until the next announcement?"

by **Krys** » Wed Apr 24, 2013 2:05 pm

At least in July we'll get to find out where we stop

EDIT: *sigh* or not

naah, it'll get delayed I'm sure!

Just like "we should have the running order a few weeks before departure"

Maybe we'll vote by raising our hands at the muster drill?

My fault. I still have not swallowed that last one yet even though it brings us a drummer closer to Wintersun

It would be nice to have a ride home. By the way, is anyone planning on coming to Brasil next year? I want to host someone from metal family ;( This is a thing that would make this world cup shit worth.

haha thanks sound tempting, actually I'm thinking about going on the world cup dates, but I'm not attending at any game, I suppose I'll know if I can go till March or April, we can talk about that with a couple of beers on January

<---This is me bitching for the lack of announcements

<---And this is me bitching 'cause besides the lack of announcements I particularly hate the fact of don't have any news from UMC, I mean at least when they publish things like pictures of the cruise with some comment we know they're alive, our money is working on the festival and they care about a close relationship with the costumers.

I really hope to don´t wait for more than one month for any news from UMC on the next months after this period of silence

by **Captain Alex** » Thu Jun 27, 2013 3:13 pm

Read the title and start bitching please!

by **Stained Class** » Thu Jun 27, 2013 3:16 pm

I heard NOANNOUNCEMENT is playing! That's a 2 setter eh??

Allison's online right now

by **cowboy71** » Thu Jun 27, 2013 5:47 pm

The Moneybookers thing, Alison and blake leaving UMC, its like Andy is trying to find new and improved ways to harsh my mellow man!!!

I have not been overly phased with the 40+ day timespan since the Carcass announcement, I think because I am so pleased with the current lineup (Two bucket-list bands in Symphony X and Xandria, four more definite two-setters in DT, Leaves' Eyes, Kamelot and Finntroll and several other guaranteed one-setters in Septicflesh, Soilwork and Swallow the Sun).

But yeah, wondering what will happen next..................

by **Metaladdict187** » Thu Jun 27, 2013 7:36 pm

Heres an idea. With the patment system still being upgraded, the money we paid thus far should be the ticket price, and all other payments waived.

I can handle that.

by **DragonLordJones** » Thu Jun 27, 2013 10:51 pm

guess I should read more posts before posting
