finally, after years of not even knowing this should exist… MAdM TV is born.
born out of love of music, weird people and wanting to share it with YOU.
when a woman is invited to be the sole female front woman on a weekend of 34 HEAVY bands, in the sexiest city in the north east of the americas, she better equip herself with a modest camera crew and entourage, to feast on the moment… and so we did! Slayer, Mastodon, Molson Beer, need i say more………
dear land of heavy music lovers,
this is an ode to you, in a snapshot of what i think is the best HEAVY MUSIC festival in the world. you can not ask for a better city to host it, and a more passionate (French Canadian!) audience. proud that my home town can bring this life, and obligated to share it. MAdMTV meets HEAVY MTL, Pour Vous, in 4 parts x hope you enjoy as much as we did being there x
PART 1 – Featuring the Lay of the Festival Land, Skeletonwitch and more
PART 2 – Featuring the “Ladies” loving Lamb of God, Rob Zombie and more!
PART 3 – Featuring my love of all things M and Mastodon and Much Much More!
PART 4 – Featuring Dave, magic drummer of Slayer and the HEAVY MTL CROWD!
DISCLAIMER / WARNING:
i was not prepared for making my first televised report. in an attempt to be prepared, i #ASKED the tweeters and facers to help me come up with questions last minute. there was a slew of great questions that came in from mariano, amal, adam, ricky, matt, james, katalyze, en apariencia, jj87, the real osmium, antonio, sarah, sweetice, mayvelin, hate the hate AND MORE> THANK YOU for all your collaboration, but i was scrambling and lost the paper. ended up winging it off the cuff.
Going Live, From Austria!

I miss you! xx
I gather my experience with has some bearing on that privilege.
Here’s a piece of (interesting?) detail from the videos. A finnish tv test screen (with a text “YLE TV1”) flashed a couple of times on the videos. Yeah, that’s not really interesting. 🙂
Is there anyone out there that can transmit the things that Dave does on drums?.
Love this guy on drums!.
Thank you very much for this, Melissa.
Wow! Really great post came across it on Google. This aricle is extremely interesting. You seem to be a very experienced blogger I’m actually new to blogging and I recently made a website about online pawn shop . If your not busy I could really use some feedback on it. Thanks alot!! .
Thanks for the interesting article. It was very interesting
Skip Hop Studio Diaper Tote Tote is awesome.So several pockets – and also not those little, useless pockets, either. Almost all of the pockets tend to be a wonderful size and seriously assist maintain every thing organized. The handles are a great length and fit nicely more than the actual shoulder; the handle shoulder straps additionally stay put on my own shoulder, which is critical when you’re carrying a child. The tote seems great, as well. Not as well fancy, but not as well casual. (I’ve it in black) The material is soft (can’t think of a greater word) so it’s uncomplicated to squeeze in to tight spaces – but yet it is sturdy. I have a Fleurville Lexi carrier and I adore it, as well, but that tote is kind of inflexible. I assume this Skip*Hop can turn into my daily tote. It’s a bit significant – so if you are not in to substantial totes this may be better as an over-night diaper handbag.
