Last year saw the inaugural Denver Deathfest which was an awesome success. It's great to see the trend of death metal festivals continue to other regions. This year, we are proud to partner up with the Desert Deathfest, which is taking place in Tucson, Arizona. The event will be taking place over several days, May 2-4, at a venue called 191 Poole. Coordinating all this is the distinguished metalhead, Steven Ford. Steven hopes to move the event location to different cities within AZ. He says the event has had over 50 band submissions from all over the world! The first event took place about 5 years ago, but the organizers hope to make it an annual occurrence. We hope they pull it off and want to offer the support of DED and our community.
