Promoters for MARYLAND DEATH FEST 2013, now over and had taken place 5/23-26, 2013 @ SONAR, BALTIMORE, MARYLAND have posted this statement in closure of the fest, including a curfew and perhaps a new venue for 2014.FROM MARYLAND DEATH FEST 2013 PROMOTERS:
See you again on Memorial Day weekend 2014 for the 12th edition of MDF! In case you were wondering what happened during Venom's set last night, an unexpected strict curfew change from 12 am to 11 pm occurred over the weekend. At the time the schedule was made, we were told it would not be a problem to finish at midnight on Sunday, so this added to our list of headaches dealt with over the weekend. We realize it is fucked up and disrespectful to have to cut a set short, but we would've been facing a whole raft of shit and a very hefty fine had we not stopped when we did. We're also very aware of some of the bad seeds that were mixed in with security. There are a core group of people that we work every year and we trust, but it is clearly time for us to step in and really take a look at every person that will be working this event from now on. Some of the stories we've heard are completely unacceptable and will not be tolerated again, but at the same time, there are many, many security guys that did a fantastic job this weekend, especially in front of the stages. Line issues early in the day and re-entry waits were another major pain in our ass over the weekend, and we'll obviously be resolving those next year as well. We'll be seeking out new venue possibilities and will fire up band bookings again over the Summer.
