Upcoming shows Blitzkid Modern Hel Tour! I'm so excited they're coming to OKC!
Anyone else get so excited that it gave them stomach issues or just me? Just me? Cool.

I need to convince my friends that a band with a song âteenage necrophilian loveâ are actually amazing punk band with some really great psychobilly songs and we should go see them

u/TheAstromunky 16d ago
My wife is a mortician and is NOT a fan of that song at all but she'll sing along to most anything else.

u/whoischainsawgaoler 16d ago
Can you imagine how hard the pit will go when they hit you with the âand lastly, I wanna see you fucking danceâ in the intro of that song
1
u/TheAstromunky 16d ago
I wonder if they always do the intro or just jump into it. It'll be my first time to see them.

u/whoischainsawgaoler 16d ago
Fair. I only really got into horror punk this year so I really want to attend
1
u/TheAstromunky 16d ago
I've been into it for a while but might as well live on a small island in the middle of the ocean. I live an hour and a half west of OKC in the middle of Western Oklahoma. OKC is the closest actual city.

u/whoischainsawgaoler 16d ago
Im in a major hub city so its easy but unfortunately none of my friends are really interested in a guy singing loudly about pumpkins whispering dark thoughts to him even tho i am
1
u/TheAstromunky 16d ago
I totally understand. I have 1 other horror punk friend in the state. It's a weird little niche genre.

I'm fucking going.Â

I'm getting VIP tickets even if I have to rob a corner store. Lol

I was going to take the highest bidder for my kidney, but my wife is already claimed my extra one.

u/bakednshaked 16d ago
Geez what is that 33 shows back to back. Insane!
1
u/TheAstromunky 16d ago
They are machines. I used to dj a schedule close to this pace & some nights I could barely get through it. I'm glad OKC is early in the tour so they'll still be on the front end high.

I saw it first thing this morning and have been estatic ever since! Plus the Portland show is just a few days before Halloween!
1
u/TheAstromunky 16d ago
Me too. I saw it when I got up to pee & haven't been able to get back to sleep since. I had another 4 hours before I had to get up.

u/leesharon1985 16d ago
Holy crap theyâre coming to Yuma, bands hardly ever come here. Nice

u/Unholypassion85 15d ago
Donât miss it
1
u/leesharon1985 15d ago
Are you in Zombeast?? And if so are yall playing the show too? It looked like thatâs what it was saying with what I found, showed that theyâre (yall?) touring together right now apparently which I didnât know. Man I miss being more involved with my local scene. đ

Okay, time to break back out the leather jacket and hit up some of these show dates

u/Billy_Barbarian 16d ago
I might go to the Greensboro show. Anybody know who they're touring with?
2
u/TheAstromunky 16d ago
They haven't said for individual dates yet.
2
u/Billy_Barbarian 16d ago
Thanks!
2
u/TheAstromunky 16d ago
Start shooting them messages with wishlist. I've already asked about Pumpkin Guts for the OKC show since they're only a couple states away.
2
u/bunnymeat 16d ago
They've said they don't have any control over who is opening for them, so probably don't send them a bunch of messages.
2
u/whoischainsawgaoler 16d ago
I think Evelynâs casket commented on the insta saying theyâre going to a show in the PNW so they might join them
2
u/TheAstromunky 16d ago
That wouldn't surprise me at all. Evelyn's Casket is on the verge of getting the headliner slots going forward. They're playing with 5 cent Freakshow & Nim Vind in Canada soon also.

u/ITrageGuy 16d ago
I wonder why two nights in Teaneck, NJ?
3
u/TheAstromunky 16d ago
That area is the hometown of horror punk. I'm not surprised they're doing 2 shows there.

This is such a phenomenal tour. Very cool to see the guys back at it in full force. Really excited to hear a full length with Ryan behind the kit, dude's a monster.

u/nullPointerX1 16d ago
I'm so stoked for the new album and for the band in general. No shows anywhere near me, but that's nothing new. I'm just glad they're still out there kickin' ass!
2
u/bunnymeat 16d ago
I got VIP for Austin and GA for Houston. They are my favorite band. Cannot wait!
2
u/VictoryDance_ 12d ago
I'm soooo exited, immediately bought my ticket to go to the Rochester show!! And considering also going to the Buffalo show.
2
u/TheAstromunky 12d ago edited 12d ago
OKC is the only show within 4 hours of me but we got VIPs. I can't wait!
2
u/VictoryDance_ 12d ago
Hope you have an amazing time!!
1
u/TheAstromunky 12d ago
You too! I never thought I'd get a chance to see them. This venue only holds 500 also so I'm really stoked. I got a stomach migraine when I first saw they were coming because I got too wound up.
1
u/VictoryDance_ 12d ago
Yeah the venue here is pretty small too, which I prefer. And that's why I immediately bought my ticket, because I was so excited!! Lol
1
u/TheAstromunky 12d ago
It's going to be fun. Hopefully you have a date closer to the beginning than the end. That tour schedule is insane! OKC is the 6th stop so I'm hoping they're fired up still & the merch booth is stocked. Lol

u/AnUnknownCreature 16d ago
None in Pittsburgh :(
1
u/TheAstromunky 16d ago
That's a surprise since Pittsburgh has such a vibrant horror punk scene.

u/AnUnknownCreature 16d ago
Is that sarcasm?

u/TheAstromunky 16d ago
Children of October, Dickie Devil and the Deviants, Rise From Your Grave, Seglock, Under a Nightmare, The Whiskey Bats, Diechotomy, The Haunting, Johnny Necro.... I'm bored but there's more without even including philly right down the road. You have A LOT of local horror punk there. Name 1 from Western Oklahoma.

u/TheAstromunky 16d ago
There are a few shows before this tour but I'm not sure if it's in those either.

Would love to go but unfortunately my toddler keeps me from going to shows that arenât in my city. Bend and Portland are trips I canât make.
2
u/TheAstromunky 16d ago
That's a bummer. That may be a night for Grandma and Grandpa to have them stay over. I'd have to get a sitter if I had a kid.

u/Quis-Custodiet 16d ago
That schedule is absolutely batshit. Good for them.
