No one should ever miss a metal concert because they didn't know about it or had no one to go with. The purpose of this group is to eliminate these problems. I took over the group because I've met too many awesome people through it to let it die. I will probably never organize anything for you all. I'm too busy with work and too lazy otherwise. Just post your upcoming shows and meetup, it's that simple. Anyone's welcome, all you gotta do is love heavy metal \m/
