Helmet can't hang in Killa City. WTF?

The Metalliance Tour is coming to KC (specifically, Merriam), but it appears that the headliner, Helmet, will skip out on the March 28 date at Aftershock.

I am still awaiting a reply as to why the feedback-heavy, "thinking person's metal band" is choosing KC as the only city it won't perform in. I'll keep you hardcore motherfuckers updated.

However, those who are willing to kick down $17 and drive out to the edge of Johnson County will be entertained by doom metal band Saint Vitus; NOLA sludge metal band Crowbar; Portland's Red Fang Kylesa, the Atlas Moth and Howl.

If you could handle all that sludgy shit, plus Helmet, then you are a champ, and I apologize for your loss. I will leave you with this footage of Helmet recording last year's Seeing Eye Dog.
