Black Anvil @ Cake Shop

Though all thoughts are on CMJ and Burnt By The Sun / Tombs / Black Anvil / Bloodhorse / Torchbearer was close to three weeks ago, it hasn't slipped my mind as one of the great shows of 2009 (Shout to 1000 Knives). A second set of pics from that monumental show are below.

In related news, we are delighted to have Black Anvil on board for the BrooklynVegan-BBG/Relapse show at Fontana's on 10/23, along with the recently added DJ's Bloodbath & Beyond (aka Brandon Stosuy & DJ Shark). The full lineup and set times for the night show have been previously announced, but what hasn't been announced is you can win A FREE PAIR OF TICKETS AND A VIP BRACELET entitling you to lots of FREE Hornitos Tequila. More on how to win at the bottom of this post.

Meanwhile, we haven't announced the set times for the BrooklynVegan Day Show at Fontana's right before the official showcase. Doors open at 1PM with the following bands taking the stage at these times:

5:30 Nebula
4:30 Crystal Antlers
3:30 Naam
2:45 Goes Cube
2:00 Ume
