Rage Fest 2010
We're 24 hours out from Rage Fest 2010 and this girl couldn't be any more excited. Three weeks ago I thought I couldn't go, this week I 
snagged a ticket off the boys of Young Bloods, tomorrow over 20 local bands that range from punk to metal are tearing the roof off of Water Street.
Headliners include Such Gold, Every Last Thursday, Sirens and Sailors, Storm the Bay and Mercia. Also keep an eye out for support bands Call Me The Patriot, Soma Slumber, Heavy Lies The Crown, and Red Letter Statement.
Doors at 5 and tickets are $10 in advance. Get down to Water Street early to catch a prime spot as it will be jammed with the 18 and under crowd quickly.

(585) Call Me The Patriot
Jake Regruit is excited.Well, his exact sentiment was that he's "stoked on the future." And rightfully so: the just-barely-20-year-old and his motley crew of bandmates who make up Call Me The Patriot are embarking on their first big tour, hitting stops along the way through the east and midwest.
The boys of Patriot have traveled a long hard year to get here, facing lineup changes, commuting to record and a little run-in with the law. Lead singer Adrian Blackwell credits this trying year with teaching them a lot about the music business, including who to trust and work with, and who not to. A little older and much wiser since we last caught up with them at Rage Fest 2009, Patriot has pulled it all together, releasing their album This Life That We Know in June.
Sunday night Call Me The Patriot got their start at Dubland and won't be back until the 13th. But, I recommend holding out until Rage Fest 2010 when the boys will join their Rochester cohorts at Water Street for the annual show. Along the way we expect them to rock tour cities with their favorites Chopper Gunner (Blackwell) and I Forget the Day Before Yesterday (Regruit) and probably cranking fan-favorite Magic Taxi.
The band is hoping to shake off the haters that tend to seek out Rochester hardcore bands and in turn drum up new fans while on the road. Mentored by Rochester's favorite lead singer to hate, Young Bloods' Joey Arena, CMTP is looking to get out of the Roc to help build up their home fan base. Sound crazy? Not so, say Blackwell and Regruit as familiarity tends to breed contempt for local bands.
We will be sure to welcome them back and show them our love for Roc local metalcore bands, come the 27th.

Full Metal Set List
Back in August we happened upon metal rockers Call Me The Patriot at Ragefest while dashing back and forth between
the sides of Water Street. We were struck by their stage presence, enthusiasm, and powerful vocals. But, they admitted that they were pretty fresh out on the scene, and their set showed it: lots of heart, needed some elbow grease.
Now, after a couple months, a lineup change, and some time in the studio, they're back headlining a night of metal bands from the Rochester area. We're excited to see what CMTP has been up to since the summer, and also for some rock solid openers. Our pre-show favorites are looking like Sky Davis and Heavy Lies the Crown.
When: Friday the 11th
Time: Doors at 6
Damage: $10 presale, $12 at the door

Old vs. New
This weekend, it's all 
about honoring the old and exploring the new. Here's what's on tap for the music scene:
New- Battle of the bands at Montage- Approximately 10 bands, duking it out for the top spot. Added bonus? Two members of Lights of Autumn are judging. Doors are at five, come support your local musicians.
Old- KMFDM at Waterstreet- Europe's industrial trailblazers are on tour and gracing our fair city with their mix of metal, electronic and rock. Get ready to rock the pit and declare no pity for the majority. Doors at 7.
