Hello, coming from romania, not really familiar with this town and staying for long. I came for todays EHG show and i was looking for a few fellow EHG friends to help me with some 4:20.

Lmk if u down

Im seeing EHG tomorrow in Budapest, thinking thats its one of the last shows from the tour, i think theyll be kinda short on merch maybe…

Is anyone seeing them in Vienna today and could send a few pictures?

Thanks

This was my 3rd year coming for the fest, attended and attending other Outbreak events also. Till this edition never had a problem with the queues or with the massive load of people but this year was different. The fact that you would wait nearly half an hour to get 2 sticks of meat with a pinch of fries for 10£ and can’t attend a show at the second stage because you didn’t secure your place with half an hour earlier (i tried gettin a place for Hatebreed with 20 minutes before they started and it was packed) is crazy. From the moment tickets sold more than the previous years this problem could’ve been anticipated, its quite a bummer to know that you could have seen the band you wanted if the attendance was better managed.

I love the fact that hardcore/alternative music is getting so big right now but this seems like a moment where the organization should take a decision in hosting it in a bigger venue and compromising the concept a bit (nothing wrong with that necessarily) or to try to keep the experience a bit more exclusive.

Honestly getting food was such a hassle that I preferred not eating and that says a lot (about me, or about the event idk..)

Appreciate the work and dedication of the Outbreak team but this years edition was not that enjoyable.

Something in the vein of Scalp/Nails but more punk-ish. Like the sludge guitar tone is there but you got 2step drum parts and hc mosh parts at a faster pace than typical sludge.
